I'm signing off now. I may get a chance to pop over in the next couple of days but I am not sure when I'll have regular internet access again. Let's hope sooner rather than later.

Looking forward to chatting with you all again.

I am here. Our life is mostly still in boxes and the weather is holding - somewhat - so I have been out digging.
