And he always has 'just one more question'...
I am selective what I put on FB. I updated when we went on holiday to the lakes earlier in the year, but I would never dream of doing it when I'm abroad - too much relaxing to be done!
Hope work is a little better for you today.

If you declutter MSE, can't you just rejoin with a new name and let your regular posters know?
