Hey Caz ... welcome back for a minute. You're right, many new ones paving their way. I'm rarely on anymore... too much of the world to see in my adventures.
Have fun, Ritz

I found out how to animate the GIFs accidentally!
Find your GIF, right click and copy image address, paste the image in "source" in the picture icon above, and enter (this is on a PC obviously). Probably not explained properly but you're the IT analyst girlfriend, you tell me!
Here's one I prepared earlier!
and here's yours...

If you're expecting a child, it's an exciting time for you and your family. And there's no reason why having a stoma should negatively affect your pregnancy.

Haven't had the chance to "meet you" as I'm fairly new here still but some of your posts have really made me smile/laugh.

Aww, thanks for the welcome back. Greatly appreciated. Alex, have you been and got your artwork done? Terri, just thought I'd let you know the crazy dog still thinks I've got his squeaky toy under my clothes. Crappy, there's plenty more where they come from, lol. Sal, missed you too. Jo, you still have the gift of making me lol. Axl, my friend, not gone far. Ritz, you have the adventures of a lifetime. Life's too short. XX

PS I am an 'old school' IT analyst. LOL. These days I just hang out listening to CDs called Spiritual Chillout, playing with crystals, and singing bowls.

And now for some singing bowls
That definitely needs some Kitaro to go along with it!
(From my trippy hippy youth, enjoy!)
