Thank you both, what you've both said makes a lot of sense. She's certainly not a T who would say something and not mean it. I've had several Ts and I know she is genuine but this has really thrown me. I do think she probably either didn't think it needed a reply because it wasn't a direct request, or as you said Artley she meant to but got sidetracked. Or maybe she's simply going to mention it in the session, although she waits for me to bring things up as a rule.

When I feel I absolutely CAN'T bring up an issue no matter what, I know it's one worth talking about

Oh well, grist for the mill.
