Very entertaining. Jan, do you stay up all night? To do all you do, I wonder when you sleep???

No Faye I do sleep but my sleep pattern has been very disturbed since my husband had his cancer surgery last year - it is now 1.16am but I had a rest for a couple of hours earlier. I am on school holiday at the moment so have time to be on here but next week it will all change LOL. Thanks for the lovely comment:-) hugs Jan xxx
