Intermission- normal service will be resumed as soon as possible

That is the message which used to appear on TV sets way back in the dark ages. Just to explain my lack of blogging, we returned today from a trip to North Wales to see family and frequent our usual haunts. As on other such occasions, I had to share husband's netbook, and didn't get into Rhyl to use the internet cafe. I hope to update my blog sometime over this weekend.
