TX Rachel-2. I didn't mean for you to take another run at it, but sure appreciate that your did.  :) :) :)

Thanks for having a go at it Mike. I didn't get a glimpse at it, but am sure it was better than you're alluding to.  ;D ;D ;D

I nearly always do a revised version or two.
When pics upload on here they tend to lose contrast and colour.

Yes c'mon Mike put yours back  ;D or tell us what you didn't like about it
