	Glad you managed to have such a good time, and well done to your niece and her hubby for giving you a great day out, a change of scene is good for everyone. I am sure you missed having your o.h. with you and a shame she missed the outing, but maybe she was able to rest and feel a little better on your return, especially as you brought back lots of goodies. Hope you can both go next time. Lizx
