Well, I'm running much later than Ric. My excuse is that I have just returned from holidays

- I wish I was still there.
A big thanks to everyone for their good wishes, it really does mean a lot to me. I was a bit down when I walked in but this has picked me up.
I didn't mention I was leaving as SWMBO has a thing about publicly announcing that the house will be empty. It may be overkill, especially as I don't have my location in my profile, but the consequences of having the place robbed I suppose demand maximum caution.
I'll say more about the holidays in a separate thread, after finish unpacking the car and have a good shower.
