Thanks for the welcome chaps, it is much appreciated - for the record, I do happen to love the desert, bit of a long walk to the water though!
Babalonian, you owe me a new carpet, think I wet myself laughing at your contribution - the reason we moved here is we have my wifes father in reasonably close proximity, plus with the marine base, if I can land a job there (IT Nerd) I dont have to commute too far.
Bob, Mbailey, I may very well be in your area August time - still working on the details for that one - bizarrely bailey, I'll be in Allentown visiting a couple of friends - small world huh
Right, off to apply more aftersun/sunblock etc .....its a bit toasty shall we say - but very very nice at the same time.
