  • Wow... so many nice posts!! Thank you all once again! No rest for the wicked, I am up at this unearthly hour finishing off my latest university assignment (the deadline is tomorrow) and decided to take a commercial break...

  • QB, what a fantastic achievement, and very well played to you and your OH. What a feeling that must be (putting side other health-related issues for an extremely brief moment). I'm sure I speak as everybody esle does in saying what an excellent but indifferent journey this has been for you, (and what a great read it has been too - there could be a book deal in it for you if tweaked a little!).

    Very well done!!!!!

    Dave
