Beth, everyone should see this video, I'm amazed there haven't been any other comments yet. Had difficulty opening the link earlier, but managed it this morning. I so often complain and moan about things, but watching this made me realise just how lucky I am - even when things are at their worst.

Bob's images will stay with me for a long time.
