It's impressive, the idea that there are people who still have the same email address after fifteen years. I definitely don't, I can't even remember what email address I had back then - something@telewest.co.uk perhaps.

Perking up and coming over here to say hello again is a very gracious response. I'm delighted you chose to. We occasionally exchanged rhyming verse to amuse everyone. It's a while since I did that here (or anywhere else!).

Mostly the last fifteen years has been pretty good, speaking for myself, though goodness knows there were a few dreadful moments along the way. I hope you're fortunate enough to be able to say the same. Had you asked me back then what I expected to be doing fifteen years from then I would definitely not have come close.

I've gotten back into writing a bit. I'm in a local group. Did one collaborative novel since we communicated. Loads of short stories and more poems, some serious. Doing a novel presently, word count is nearing 80,000. I should finish it within the week then my personal edit.

On the gardening front, I've built a Honeybee, Monarch butterfly, hummingbird garden. It keeps me very busy and very happy.

Who could forget :-)

Happy days when people flew in from far and wide to meet each other in person.

Yes that was quite an adventure. I remember it still. Miss so many of the wonderful people I met.

People still stare at me in disbelief that I set off to London with Theia to meet up a whole bunch of random people we'd never met before and I'm still in contact with a few of them now.

It's good to see you post again. Forums aren't the magnet they were back then but it's still a link when people call round. America and Britain have both gone through a few changes, even that's not what it used to be like.

I hope you're not surrounded by snow, I know it's still cold in some parts.
