Long way back from WORTLEY
Hi all,
Great to have spent a wonderful two days with you all in Wortley.
Finally got to reach my mails today and was so surprised Ian had sent some mails round weeks back. I was just wondering why i hadn't got the mails until i checked my personal email today. I am so sorry , cos i don't check this often like my work mails.
Ok, the blog has been created and i expect people to start posting their stuff in it now. I will send the password and login details round. If you can't post your stuff directly, never mind, simply send the images and text to me by email and i will upload for you.
HAVE A LOVELY BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND.
