Get well, Lyn.

What a bummer for you Lyn, you'll have to wait for the photos like the rest of us no shows!
Get well soon.
Cheers Tim
 
Lyn,

So sorry to hear of your illness and I am sure you will be missed. I have also been unwell over the last six weeks, with umpteen blood tests, ultrasounds, and other less pleasant medical procedures, but I'm now thankfully on the mend Have a great time all of the rest of you who can make it, and I look forward to seeing the photos (Please take lots of then) in due course, when we're back to normal.
