One of the things Yorkshire was known for was it's coal pits. There might have been a reason.

Anyway, she looked about a decade younger, seriously. I know her well enough for my opening line to be " hey, you're looking great...have you had a facelift?". The answer was " no, but I feel like I could have...we finally got our green cards last week and I've been walking on air ever since"

So hang in here Nicky, it'll come good in end. And when it does, think of the money you'll be saving on a facelift. If you needed one. Which I'm sure you don't .
Thanks (I think)

I'll certainly have less grey hairs

I'm from Yorkshire too, so not easily insulted. Reminds me of when I said to someone with alopecia "you're only jealous because you haven't gone any... Tinsel, not hair". Doh!

It must have been the change in weather today that made you use the "open mouth, insert foot policy"
