Ahhhh Maria - you are more than welcome here, I'll adopt you as a Brit for the purpose of this thread.... Although I just noticed a "non-UK" thread has been started so maybe you won't need us now! lol!
Thank you, S... you are very sweet! (BTW, how is your parati... do you love her? have you got many compliments? Please, update us on your adventures with this bag)
I love England and had a great time while i was living there - despite lectures, tutorials and practical work... so i dont mind belonging to both clubs...
Lescoy may show some objections to my membership... she is a purist!
