Hi Denis, I came back from my one month hols yesterday, yes the 8th of the 8 of 08 and as I am very superstitious I wasn't sure if that was meant to be a positive or a negative thing but what I know is that I was very nervous about it in the plane !!!! lol

Great pic and a bit different from your style...........Refreshing !
