Hi Paul,

Looks like you have been through it. My nature is to anti up for the fight and then want to get into it no matter how tough. Spent a few years in uniform when armies wore green in good ole days of the cold war..have a 'tackle it' mind set.

Unusual but I have found a much much more positive mind set here than main UK forums. I have half American, dads side although raised in UK. US side, half bro in LA, cousins in NY and friends down in Fl.
