"...taking a journey into another world... this CD takes you on a four-dimensional exploration of another world, another space and time. rich sonic textures interweave with gentle melodies to lead you through mysteries and moods and bring you happily back home by the end. well recorded, this would make a great soundtrack for a movie..."

Hi Sandra - no need to apologise - the advent of "No 3" sure takes priority over what any of us guys is doing on here!
Be comfortable for the last few weeks/days - relax - get your "Other Half" to do some of the running around - after all, he's already do his part of the "work" in bringing "No 3" onto the scene!
Very warmest wishes on Flat-day [which usually follows the longest day]
