Sorry I cannot this time around reply to each individually, but each comment has been read and each is very much appreciated. It is a particularly good feeling when I realise that those making the comments feel free to say what they honestly think. If it's rubbish, please say so!<br /><br />I would like to say a special word of welcome to those who may have visited or commented for the first time. I do hope it will not be the first and last!<br /><br />To any that I might not have said already, let me wish a very happy and healthy new year.<br /><br />My thanks to all.Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-80249247142201722692013-01-05T05:58:52.944+00:002013-01-05T05:58:52.944+00:00Love them all!
