My apologies lilbow as these boards seem to have forgotten their manners as it was always the custom with the late Gordon Harper to welcome newcomers to these boards. So belatedly, I do welcome you here and hope you will find much to learn, much to amuse and and a lot to contribute. You will need a combination of Geoff Boycott, Brian Close and Ray Illingworth to weather some of the less polite of our brethren but persevere and you will find it worthwhile.

My apologies lilbow as these boards seem to have forgotten their manners . . . . lilbow73 - I'm afraid I'm the one without manners, and I apologize. I have not been around much lately. I'm glad you enjoyed the photos of the dig! Diane

lilbow73 - I'm afraid I'm the one without manners, and I apologize. I have not been around much lately. I'm glad you enjoyed the photos of the dig! Diane Diane, don't knock yourself. There has never been any understanding that you alone must greet newcomers to these boards as the late lamented BigGordie demonstrated regularly. When you are not around it doesn't take anyone else but a minute to post a welcome message to someone new, especially those who are posting on a daily basis. You owe nobody an apology and you are certainly not without manners. Hunk

lilbow,
Sorry my friend I didn't notice you had joined our merry band till a couple of days later. Felt a little embarrassed about not give you a welcome right away so I let it go. But "Hunk" opened the door to a do over, so let me at this time say welcome and it will be a pleasure to exchange ideas with you.
Be Well Dan
