Hi Donnie,
I'm busy making mistakes too. Just had a plate full of freshly picked, home grown stuff so also eating well and we have 2 Berkies and 7 chicks of indeterminate breed. Looking forward to hearing what you learnt from your mistakes -you must be a well of knowledge by now cos I know I've learnt more from my mistakes than I have from anything else!
