      Be careful of your back Nick! Take plenty of breaks and don't over do things. We miss you too much when you aren't around!!

        Hi Folly Mon. Just listen to your body. If it snarls "ENOUGH" then have a nice cuppa and stop for a while. I don't want my ice cream put in jeopardy!! I want it in my mouth please!!!
