Hello everyone! My absence is mostly down to being (sort of) fit and active again, after the hip and knee operations through which you were all so supportive, and travelling a lot. (Been to Australia, Singapore, on the Queen Mary for my 70th) Also doing a lot extra for Rotary down here - we're off to Rwanda soon to investigate a farming project there.
But no excuse for desertion - though a little PM unpleasantness did throw me slightly. That was then, this is now.
Then I think I felt a bit tentative about suddenly reappearing, so when someone told me about this thread, it was a perfect opportunity just to drop in. So thank you!
Now, of course, I must trawl through the threads and find out what you've all been up to....
