Good to hear! It's sometimes difficult to suitably reply to such sensitive events, hence people may opt for silence, lest a well-meant message is received ill. And great fortune upon thy efforts!Sorry if that was too heavy for people to want to respond to! Oh dear. No worries, we're doing alright.
Update is that my family are looking to move house this year, which will be disruptive but I see the sense in it given the circumstances.
My studies are picking up a little but I'm desperate to get the next couple chapters of DE done asap due to the awards season. Wish me luck!
