I'm sorry for the lateness in posting the mags, my partner is really poorly and on Friday we had some terrible news dropped on us. I have stopped comping at the moment and will pop back online in the week to let you know if I am able to continue posting the mags. If anyone spots any comps I usually post from websites, just dive in and get them posted up.
Hope things improve for you soon.
Best wishes, love and hugs.

I would just like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has commented with such kind words at this difficult time. On Friday we found out my partner has lung cancer which has been a huge shock. I've been in bits and feel like my heart has been shattered.
He has to have some more tests and we get the results on the 8th and we will find out exactly what were facing. I am just praying he can beat this. I’m just trying to block it all out at the moment until we know everything and I've decided I need to kick myself up the bum and get a grip and be strong for him.
I’m going to throw myself back into comping to distract myself as he’s bed bound at the moment and on another planet with the morphine and I guess it beats being lonely and sad and mulling things over.
I will continue to post the magazines and some comps and will shout up when I need some cover.
Sorry for bumping and a big thanks to you all again. :A0
