    #save4arainyday,i know,my family really needed good news at this time.....just goes to show that things like this really do happen to very ordinary people,before she got her money,i asked her if she was to get to meet Richard Branson,what would she ask him etc.........she says she would go to town about his new trains,as she and we, as a family use them about 6 times a year,as i'm in Scotland and she's down south,and we have had very bad experiences on most trips,even had money refunded......the trouble with his cross country trains,are they think there aeroplanes,no luggage room at all etc......i'll stop now as i could go on all day about his trains...
    :T It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. :T

    Nice one fuzzyrazer! A word for the wise, if you haven't started don't, and if you have quit. The odds are against you even before you even do anything.

    We could form an orderly queue for the lucky pebble- who wants to draw up a list of people in order for this? Lol ;)

    Delighted for you all! You deserve it.
