    Anyway Froggy, this is a happy family so we'll never be far away :)

    Now now Froggy, where's your fighting spirit :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Hi Froggy, who knows what will happen in the next three years.

    You may get whisked away by some gorgeous young lady, you may move countries, you may do all your training, qualify, be promoted, earn a fortune - this is a new chapter and grab hold of it with both hands.

    Best wishes Tilly x x x x

    Froggy, you HAVE started the journey. This bit where you're saving for your lilypad fund is like the train that you take to get to the airport - it's not the flight but it is definitely part of the journey. Life has thrown some nasty curve balls at you over the last couple of years. You are doing amazingly to cope with them all.
