@BPDSurvivor thankyou for that. ill have to remember. to do it at the start of the letter now because wrote the letter and then forgot who it was going to. so i went back to the start of the letter and put in 2 peoples symbol in there and it looks like it worked.  im wondering if the second one went to the other person At the same time. anyway , i think people have worked out that im short a few sheep in the top paddock and they will hopefully ignore them. thanks again and for the pictures. i find watching all my critters eating cream buns very amusing. thank you again and i will sporadically keep chipping away at things. take care, stay safe, tonys
