Welcome and well met @slothboarder! The Garden of England sounds lovely but I am sure you are suffering through okay in San Diego! Lola is beautiful, scratch her butt for me.

I am happy to follow you as you seem to be an engaging writer and a positive humorous spirit. The next time you write a post you are proud of please do drop me a link at my upvote service again and I will promote it for you :)

Cheers - Carl
