Thank you kindly... and Best Wishes to you two and everybody as well. Christmas for a large family do on Christmas Day is now a little doubtful on account of just blowing up the Oven! :nonchalance::disgust:
 
Hard tack and pemmican for Christmas lunch, then? Hope you have a good time.

Looks like the Wells dredgers have broken up early for Xmas, and just when they were getting into the swing of it!

Thanks for your sterling endeavours: yet another year's worth (a whole 52 weeks!). Much appreciated.

We wait with bated breath. Who knows what 2019 NtM Week 1 will bring? :)
