Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 Hi Beatrice, Hope it works this time. Hope all are well and sorry for not being involved as much as I should but I am still recovering and in the middle of organising a surprise 50th for my hubby. It is turning out bigger than Ben Hurr. I am reading all the e-mails that come through and welcome to all the new members. I will get to you in about 3 weeks when the party is over. SORRY. I am also packing to move on the 14 th June to sunny Queensland in Australia. It is about 14 hours north of where I am living now. I can't wait to get there.... Good Health to all. Debbie.
