Thanks Light. Think I'll stick with the tea thanks as I'm at work :o)

Merks

* passes and bikkies *

Go for it! Have you decided what to write about?

Hi, sorry, haven't dropped by for quite some time, been snowed under! ;o)
I'm starting to get to grips with things now though...

m:o)

no worries Merks!

I have been on holiday so not arround much

So what have you been up to?

I seem to spend my life in front of the computer beaverng away at work!
Did you have a nice holiday? Sunny?

m:o)

We had a great time thanks! Went to Tenerife for two weeks of doing nothing and a little sunshine Well I was not sure how little I would be able to do but its fair to say I overachieved at the doing nothing. Much needed w**k has been very hectic and its been back to reality with a very hard thud - Oh well

I was on a course this week and someone asked me what I do when I am not working and I really had to think about that - humm


Oh well

How is the WW2 thing coming along

Light

hello

Hmmmm, ww2 thing sure is busy. At least it keeps me out of mischief though.
Tenerife can be nice this time of year, I went there last year with a couple of friends, and although it was a bit of a 'Britian abroad' it was still nice and relaxing...

Shame it's so grey and dull here...
