    Another day spent glued to News24.

    Boddy healing vibes for GGD

    Cycling - that is great news on the coursework, hope the papers go well

    JoJo - well done on the theory test.

    Toots - thanks for acknowledging my vast knowledge of all things to do with drains and water

    JoJo - is it you who know all about fish - is so you could be fisheries, if not health (you're welcome to share drains with me though)
