          Well you did say you'd have to do a cull when it's finished Pam! :heehee: If it's going to be that long then I'd categorise them by colour and take out which one in that colour you like best, see what you've got and then add or take away. It's not going to be easy, it's mental torment because they're all so lovely. I had to whittle my list down to nine, it was hard, very hard! :biggrin:
