Hello Paddie. Don’t be shy, ask away. There is no such thing as an idiot question here, so if you have a question, please, ask it even if you think it trivial. My first question here was about drinking espresso coffee! (It’s ok in moderation just in case you need to know)

Hi Paddie... welcome and please feel free to ask away.... we all do. And we do get some great replies that are so helpful.

Do message when you’re ready. Questions certainly! But I also like to read about other people’s experiences, how they’ve managed things, and got through some v tough times. There are some amazing ideas in these messages!
