Hi Sid and Maureen,

Sorry, I haven't been online for a few days. I've been rather preoccupied with Christmas approaching and various family birthdays. Yesterday I visited my late friend's mum in Scotland. So it's been all go! I'm looking forward to catching up with you on Thursday.

Love the 'Wonderings of Truckshunters' Sid.
