    Very exciting Froggie. hows the princess doing? Is she still down?

    Thanks LP.. Hard to say with Princess..She seems to have perked up a tiny bit with things progressing on the house move front.. She is out tonight (at the theatre to see Sister Act), and out again with work colleagues for dinner tomorrow night..

    You live in Bolton! I used to work there about 10 years ago and some of our friends used to live in Westhoughton. For some reason I imagined you lived in south Manchester. A few years ago we went on a trek and we trained on the hills of Winter Hill, have you been there?
