    Toots I'm fine thank you, so pleased to be feeling well again

    Emily Happy New Year in your New home

    Just trying to rearrange DS3 swimming lessons to a different day. Annoyingly the email address on the letter they sent me is incorrect. I think I've now managed to alter it correctly - they had missed an e our of their own company name.
