Sorry - I didn't mean to be away so long!!
Everything just got crazy including an unexpected house move followed by a few internet issues so I haven't even been visiting everyone much at all, let alone doing anything for myself. However tomorrow is the last day of classes for the year so once I get my assignment finished I can get into my new workshop area (which presently resembles a bomb site!), unpack boxes and hopefully get some mini-action going. So thanks for your patience, and your kind enquiries as to my health and so on, I hope to be back soon!!
PS - not only is it my last class for the year, it's my final undergraduate class!! I thought the day would never come - it's been a long haul!
