Sorry girls, I sort of dropped off the planet for a couple of weeks due to an opportunity to do some climbing. Obviously I took it and because it was very much unscheduled and last minute, I didn't have time to let even Katie know, much less any of the other mods here,

I hope I haven't missed too much although I understand there have been certain 'issues', which have been handled by Wendy.

I'm looking now to catching up on the forums and saying 'hi' in the chatroom as soon as possible.

Hi Nikki-

Welcome back, Nikki, I thought there was a certain sparkle to the place that had been missing for awhile. Did you have fun?

Hugs...Joni Marie

Yes Joni, it was brilliant thankyou. It's been a few years since I have climbed but suffice to say that I will be out doing some more this year and early next year in the Alps.

There are a lot of us, including me, who have not been able to be around like we wnt to be. We understand.
