Hi Everyone, I can’t post from my iPad anymore so I guess you won’t be hearing from me again. I do not have a mobile phone so that is not an option. Since they changed the format I find it more difficult to navigate. I think they call it progress or improvement...lol I wish you all a happy and successful journey....take care xx
