Bridget what brilliant news. I am so glad to hear more good news. Now those horrible night demons will take a hike. So take it easy on the housework. I had a boss years ago and she always said "there is an acceptable level of dust", something I live by. (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it)

Good on you!

Love Jean xx

Hi Jo

Thanks. We leave Majorca and visit Ibiza Gibraltar Malaga and 2 other place – I forget. I have a head on me like a sieve. When we all go together we have a great time. My brother is a nutcase – in the nicest way – and he thinks its his job to ensure that everyone enjoys themselves. Hope it comes off

Love Jean xx
