    Morning all
    hiya soappie - did you have a good time on your hols? haven't been on much either so have missed loads

    I had a lovely time thanks Carlsb... and I'm sending my get well v. soon wishes to young Danny. Don't overfret about the hotel - I'm sure it's routine.

    Sorry I've not managed to catch up but I've been incredibly busy. I had an urgent article to write Wednesday afternoon which meant going out taking photos and then thinking up words. Then yesterday, DD flew off to Spain for a long weekend and the spring cleaning bug got me (distraction therapy whilst she was in the air) and I completely bottomed out my bedroom including under the bed and behind the chest of drawers and things.

    It'll be a strange weekend with just me and the dog and the cats but we'll cope, I'm sure.

    Need to have a shower, pack and then book myself onto the airport shuttle. I've done a very small amount of work (it's 10am here) and now just want to get home!

    Hope you've all been flying hard. (((hugs))) to those in need.
