Rolly · Rolly

I've been incommunicado for a while and will be again shortly I expect, but I want to thank you all for your continuing good and kind advice - even if it has taken me all day to trawl through the threads. Welcome from me to all the newbies too. I'll try to catch up with you good folks more often.
