Shall I add you to every section hun?

 

[Mervs Mum]

If you like! I'd answer questions on anything but steer people towards members with specific areas of expertise as I do now.

 

[Pyrrhic]

Once a few more people volunteer, I'll start a new thread for discussion and get people to fill out mini profiles on their BFing experiences
