    Hi everyone.

    Shaz - thinking of you and your boys. I do hope everything works out.

    Chalky - what wonderful news for your DS! I can feel the excitement about the wedding in your posts. It reminds me so much of last year when my DS2's wedding was looming. Have a great week followed by a fantastic weekend; I'm praying for good weather for you all. I am settling in France, but still missing the family - if it wasn't for Skype, I think I would find it a lot harder.

    Jean - I'm afraid I haven't planted my tomatoes yet - it drizzled all afternoon and was quite cold, too, so my motivation went right out of the window! I've promised myself I will do them tomorrow.

    Well, off for a shower, then some crochet.

    Have a great evening.

    KathyXX
