12/27/25 17:07: Homely: Merry Christmas to you, as well, MD - so glad my worst suspicions about you were unfounded! Sounds as if you have moved from your lovely place up the hill since then - here's to new things in a new year.
Cheers
12/27/25 16:05: Homely: MD - I remember that story about Viti tracking down Feral Orchid! Haven't seen FO in quite a while. I've theorized that there are folks who can no longer log on because the system is slowly dying, which means they can read our comments but not add anything in. If folks lost their login into they will be out of luck. Such a shame to see the community shrink so.
N Q - We did NOT go anywhere warm... we were in the Netherlands and Belgium! We did not see the light of day for ten days, but it was a lovely trip. Sadly, the day we were leaving DS was deployed so he missed the trip. We missed him terribly but drank some beers for him.
Hope everyone had a very warm and wonderful holiday!
12/27/25 16:02: Homely: It's good to be able to still see a few here and there!

Merry Christmas.
12/25/25 14:21: MD: Merry Christmas Everybody. "Everybody" seems to be Homely, NQ and Silver Fox, aka Arizona Sue.
Fun to read the old messages ........
Hi Roger Barker ......
12/25/25 14:12: MD: Shame about Viti. I remember when she tracked down Feral Orchid and knocked on her door! She cycled to the village and walked round with a picture of Feral asking ....."Do you know this woman?"
I wonder how Feral is getting on ..... she used to do mountains of pickles.

Hi NQ. I hope you have a lovely Christmas. I live in the apartment above my daughter .... great fun. Son left beautiful Devon to go back to the mucky Midlands ..... he gets twice as much pay for doing the same work.
I really do hope you have a great time.
