Hanneke, as not sure if I can take another weekend off so close to Merry's BG!
Boy Wonder - as I regret missing XOTF but don't know what I'm doing tomorrow, let alone next June! Keep watching this space - if I make it I'll be a currier and lofter - by nature I have to go for everything thats on offer
