Hi Dr G listening to your back catalogue. Hadn't realised you have given us seven years of your upbeat attitude, your strategies and your great crafting vibe. Thank you so much. I hope it's not over, selfishly, but if it is time for you to move on, enjoy your well deserved podcasting retirement. . Many thanks x Sally
