Missed most of the post over the weekend as had problems with the thread but hope everyone is feeling great and if not great than at least OK. Those that aren't hope you feel better soon
Rach- good Luck for the weekend and hope you are not too busy :rotfl: although I am sure that you probably have a million and one things to organise , if not more.
