I'm so pleased to hear that you are getting some good news lately. You sound so enthusiastic about your gardening and craft projects - a whole new world is opening up for you. I'm also doing lots more gardening - sowing, making cuttings, dividing etc. I love it and could easily spend all my time doing that rather than tidying up and doing paper work!0

Haven't been on for a bit, so, so pleased about your PPI. And the Kindle. Of course you should keep it, and enjoy it.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0
