    Whew glad you're back, and there was me thinking it was us women who have the PMS (or is it the change? :o )

    Aww we love you anyway and to be honest I didn't notice you were down, sorry about that but I am really pleased you're feeling better. If it's any consolation we all go through it, even the cat has threatened to leave home this week unless I cheer up.
