    Just checking in to say, I will sort out numbers for the newbies over the weekend.  Been a busy week as my mother has been in hospital with puemonia, she is back at her nursing home now.
    Thats a worry, hope she's feeling brighter now.  

    I'm happy to start wiht you all from February onwards :)

        Awesome! :p:D  It's like finding money in a jacket or coat pocket you haven't worn for a while that you're about to give to the charity shop. I'd count it ;)
