It is. Although I suspect that now most people who were going to donate, have donated. Still, a very respectable sum of money to raise!

Just to let you all know that stella has been going through a pretty bad time of late with her "MANIC DEPRESSION" CONDITION

Oh. I didn't know about that. She is a big miss around here, but she does seem to take some posts very seriously. As the person responsible for "the picture" referred to, I can only repeat my apologies for any offence caused. There was also another post that she took exception to and that may have added to the problems.

This is a very friendly and welcoming forum, but sometimes one does need pachydermal tendencies. Words and intentions can be misconstrued even when no harm is intended...

Stella, if you read this, I hope you are OK.

.....Yeah, come back in your own time Stella, you lovely lady! - Miss your posts, which always bring a huge smile to my face . - Hope you can get to the Convention too. No pressure or anything!

That Mr Artois bloke is spending a lot of time round yours lately. - You sure you've not taken him in as a lodger?

Blackberry server went down in the USA, overnight, so no BB till they wolke up and fixed it.... and now broadband down in the Cannock area. No VPN connection to the office.

So been doing a spot of weeding...

My elder daughter, who is 16 next week, was in hospital on thursday. She has to wait for the results of the histology tests to find out what is causing the problems. Still in the hunt (and current favourite) is Crohne's Disease... but cancer is also a possibility.

Imagine having all that hanging over you while you sit your GCSEs!

And her dog had to be put down this weekend too...
