Hi! Well, ok my username on here is DaveUK (long story!), I'm the Simon Yam talks about! For those that might recognise my name from a few months ago, you'll have probably figured out that the former GF Yam mentioned was the very one that spawned my very first posting on this forum.

That period of my life was pretty bad, and the advice and encouragement from everyone on this site helped a lot! Luckily for me, as Yam has said, Iain e-mailed me and told me about her. The rest of what happened is as she has said! :-)

I had a great 2 weeks in the Philippines and my birthday was the best I'd ever had! It was the first time anyone I know had specially made me a birthday cake instead of paying someone else to do it! That meant a LOT to me! Although if my Mum is reading this, please don't take offence Mum! :-)
