      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                      [Sorry for delay - I was busy yesterday - now on Platform 3]

                      I'll make changes on who can move to/from Platform 3, though NB unless a relevant host happens to have seen the request on the thread (not guaranteed), it won't be responded to unless someone nudges

                      As You Were, Peeps.
                      It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.
