    From one welsh bird to another, so glad your back on track. just read this thread from start to finish and I have tears streaming down my face and it takes a lot to make this bird cry!

    I really hope we go ahead with the welsh meet now as I really want to meet such an inspiring person as yourself.

    ((hugs))
