So sorry everyone. I really wish I had been more efficient with this TR. Thanks so much for the messages. It's kinda weird but the past couple of months have been insanely busy and stressful. My eldest boy started secondary school (and is getting on really well which is an enormous relief as I was worried sick about it - such a big change!). 'Alice' started pre-school (she loves it - never stops talking in there - her teacher regularly has to slowly back away to try to give some attention to the other kids

). So these days it's 3 kids in 3 different schools in 3 totally different parts of the city. But it's working out - it's just that there doesn't seem to be time for anything else.
I noticed the free dining offer for autumn 08 for UK/European residents - how tempting is that? I would jump on it but the flights are so expensive, I have to be sensible.
I won't say, I'll get another chapter up soon cause I said that before and clearly it was a total fabrication.

But really I'll get another chapter up soon.... um, yeah.... honestly!
Thanks for sticking with me and, again, sorry about the ridiculous length of time this is taking.
