So close, and to come back from a double-digit deficit like you had. I wish I had that drive!

Well done Moniek. You nearly did it. As promised, for dwarfing my measly 70 hours, I'll be sending something out to you. give me a month or two as I want to make up all three prizes and send them out together.

Love and hugs gina xxx
