    How many drills did you get through on one of those! Makes me feel
    faint just thinking about it. Thanks for reminding me that it is
    possible to make drills, I was taught to do this but it had been
    mislaid in the folds of my memory.

    Oh yes! Now that is GOOD news. Can't wait to see it. 

Cheers, Ruth.
