Well that's all from me today. I apologise for being AWOL at the moment on the commenting front, I've been seeing your lovely makes in my feed but I have not had time to pop in on you - things have not settled down as I thought and then I spent 6 hours in A & E on Tues/Weds with one of my daughters, although she is fine now thank goodness, so I have some catching up to do.
Thank you all for your comments here though and I will visit you soon.
