Phil and I trust that all is well with you and yours up the coast there... I guess you are, or have been, getting rain? We are getting showers at the moment, which are forecast to tend to rain over the next few days, and then it is supposed to fine up on Saturday for at least part of the long weekend!! Let's hope that's what happens, anyway!! ;o) #6007290
