Melanie -

[Skippy]

Did you have a good holiday?

[MelanieGiles]

Lovely thanks Skippy - although I currently am the proud owner of a big black eye!!! The victim of going far too fast down a run in very poor visibility and failing to stop before I hit a mogul field! Very sore!!

It's great to be back though, and I am looking forward to a very active forum over the next couple of weeks.

[Skippy]

You poor thing, I hope it goes down soon!

Good to see you back Melanie. Sorry to hear about the eye although, i did have a giggle imagining it.

Did you get the black eye Melanie as you had one eye on my case! Seriously I hope you're ok? and glad you had a lovely break, you deserved it. (that's the break not the black eye!)

[Soulgrowth]

Well ... with the recent discussion on "sausage factories" we know that our Melanie will be putting steak on her black eye ... because she is certainly more a steak than a sausage concern! (another thread Melanie!).

Welcome back [:)]

That made me smile Debbie - as I have read the earlier post!

Glad you had a good holiday.

I have never known any one who deserves a holiday more than you.

You obvisouly work very hard, then in your own time even at 2am in the morning you come and help us out with advice.

Thank You

James

It is my great pleasure to do this James, and in a little way enables me to give a little back to a profession which has looked after me for the last 23 years. I have genuinely missed my forum postings over the last few days, and am furiously reading the last 250 posts to see if there is anything additional that I can add.

Thank you for your kind words.

What's a mogul field?
Is it Alan Sugar and Richard Branson on a camping holiday?

[MelanieGiles]

That is so funny. I am chuckling to myself as I read!

[aguise]

lol. Oh Melanie I hope you are not too bruised and battered and still had a good time.
