Hiya Skinty, I seem to be finding quite a few old daily chat members around on the forums over the last week. I have had a change of user name but have re-connected with MSE and have had a diary on DFW for several months now.
Seems like a long time since I came to collect you from that bridge in Durham CityLooks like things are working out well for you.
