Dancing naked is good fun. <BR/><BR/>Jon says "Data will be there on your hard drive, but it's a matter of how much money you'll want to throw at it to get that info back."<BR/><BR/>My advice is don't throw too much money at it, because although the information is important to you, so is being able to live without being in huge debt to a credit card company.<BR/><BR/>You're moving house, and starting a fresh. Maybe it's time to lay the past to rest (easier said than done, I know) and leap forward into the new beginnings.<BR/><BR/>Huge hugs from both of us!Captain Skulduggery Dughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09006783819138495126noreply@blogger.com
