That being said none of this would be possible for me with two very important people, who have given their all on this project and helped me in ways that I can never repay. Angela who has designed and created one of the most beautiful websites I have ever seen, and who did all this out of the kindness of her own heart. She truly is a wonderful person and I would like to thank her from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work she put into this.. the proof is in the pudding as they say. And I believe that this site is truely a great work of art on her part.Secondly I would like to thank my husband, who put up with all my moaning at him to build the back end faster…”and do it this way”… and “why cant you put that there”….he was a trooper through it all and built me a great working website that I am very proud of.I am beyond charmed to have two such kind, generous and dedicated people in my life.
