Life can kick you in the teeth and slap you in the face at the same time. For the last few days I've been trying to get things back on track and had thought myself a day or so behind, only for life to do both.

I've just found out that my sister has passed suddenly, she wasn't ill and it wasn't an accident, she just passed in her sleep and as of now we have no idea about the why of it. Needless to say this has thrown all my plans out the window. I'll be taking a few days, a week perhaps and while I can't say for sure how long, I expect to be back the week after next.

If I feel up to it I'll post something sooner, but as of now all my stories are on hold until the week starting 21st June. I thank you all for your understanding.
