Hi Linz
Congratulations on the new venture to Joan and Clive. Wish your Mum and Dad every success from me. Perhaps you can obtain one off the production line and give us a demo at a Crafts night?

* Fluffywelshsheep ponders the fact that if she had lots of money she would have a bigger house with extra rooms to hold all her hobbies she like to do.
