Well I'm alive and very well indeed!!
Proof can be obtained from Snuffy, Mairi (pleased to meet you) and Alanww, whom I saw at Bishop's Castle yesterday, also Mrs Lemon, who was VERY busy.
Oh, and Mr Red, who hadn't the foggiest idea who I was!!! Accosted in the street by a big woman with a collie!!! He looked decidedly alarmed!!!

I know it's an awful cliche, but I have embarked on a spiritual journey, which takes a lot of time and energy, shaking off the persona placed on me by others, and finding my own path.

Eee, these post-menopausal women!!, they all go a bit strange!!!
One of my sons is a bit worried I'll start taking my clothes off!!!!

Cheers, Bron.
