for both the welcome and advice. My new Sony 505 is already on it's way to me, unfortunately due to bank holiday Monday it will probably be Wednesday at the earliest before it arrives. Taking the holiday into account it should be between Wednesday and Friday next week for delivery given the timetable supplied from the vendor.
I researched other options for readers and opted for the Sony one, given price, availability and my personal needs. That said I probably won't be counting the days (too much anyway!!). I had all three of my nephews today due to in service day (both my brother and sister in law are teachers) and they should be picked up soonish. I'll probably be exhausted tonight after they go, keeping up with one is tiring let alone all three at once.
Also Tuesday and Thursdays are my usual babysitting days, so I'll probably have a lazy long weekend, a busy Tuesday and have to see about getting my car in for it's MOT before the 4th of June. I like to get it done with a week to spare incase repairs are needed. So either Friday next week or Monday at the latest the following week. Depends on when the garage has an opening.
Anyhow, thank you everyone.
