I have managed to acquire the use of broadband until Tuesday. Therefore I would like to say - first of all - that the messages you have left for me on this thread have really made my heart melt. I thank you all so much for what you have said. I am sure that you will all agree with me that the love and friendship that exudes from this site is truly exemplary.

A GREAT BIG hello to everyone who has joined the site - Gosh!!! - a load of you have joined in the days I have been away (Hmmmm! ) - you could not be in a better place.

I'll continue my blog now.

Luv 2 ya all,

Al.
