Hi Ian, great to hear from you again and can I just say that I would like to send you my good wishes for your health and happiness for the coming year,
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family around you including your best pal Buddy, I would also like to tell you it was a pleasure meeting you and Catriona in York, it was a brilliant weekend.
Wishing you all the best for Christmas and a prosperous New Year!
Chuckles.
Hi Ian
I was sorry when you decided to leave as you were one of the first to welcome me when I joined the forum. I enjoyed reading your posts.
My bees are dozing through the winter. Merlin doing well, although his once lovely fluffy has yet to recover from Cherry's pulling. Cherry's getting bigger, lovely wavy chestnut coloured coat.
Very best wishes to you, Catriona and Buddy for Christmas and the New Year

Hi Ian,
Good to hear from you. Yes I am still here, but not very regularly. Seems to have been a lot going on here at home recently.
Yes Cherry’s a big girl now 11 months. Not as big as Merlin who is only a small collie anyway. She’s very dainty and girly but rather headstrong so we have “a few words” now and then. But she’s amazingly empathetic. If anyone is down or upset she fusses around them very concerned.
Hope you, your wife and buddy keeping well
Hi Ian,
Glad to see your back on here.
Lots of good poets on here now,if I remember you were good at that too,maybe you will get one done too.
Sunny here today it’s been 3 nice days hope it continues.
Cheers blue bell
Yes a lovely day here in.central Scotland.
Sitting in garden enjoying the sun
May as well as might not last.
Babs x Hope all my friends on here are well. ps including Tommy’s hamster! ! !

Dear moderator
Am not smiling as trying to get on here is like trying to break into Fort Knox stupid passwords ect sorry but it’s ot for me stressing to do something that could be made easy . It’s not like anybody cares about what we shakers type so come on simplify things up please (.you have ruined it in my point of view ) so I can’t be bothered with secret passwords and e mail as well , it’s not like anyone wants all this secrecy or they wouldn’t type in the first place
And just before I depart who is the woman’s face on my profile as I certainly never put it there ???
Hi Ian,
How are you? I’m really sorry that the new-look forum is giving you trouble. It’s taking some getting used to for some people including myself. What issues are you having? Is it with the passwords?
