And a long overdue post to thank a couple of lovely bloggers plus the bloggers to whom this Sunshine passes on...! And there are many more one reads, admires and follows...perhaps one should just ignore the '12' rule?  :-D
The only reason for the delay, was  being tongue-tied-embarrassment  at receiving such award...
