    Where Is Everyone Tonight ... ????

    ... writing Christmas Cards, dozing in front of the telly ... or ... gone off to bed? It just occurred to me that it's unusual there's No Unread Posts at this hour of a Saturday evening.

    I thought it was pretty quiet here earlier too. I actually fell asleep in front of the PC for a while, then came too and watched a couple of DVDs. Now in bed!

    Last time you posted your concern was 12 December Arthur, just before the long cold spell , maybe everyone's hibernating again or SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) TATT (Tired All The Time) -there's an alarming number of causes Or looking for Scottish pound notes to send you ?

    Touche', Alan!

    Well actually, I've just spent the past couple of afternoons & evenings, wending my weary way through a quagmire of bewildering [to ME, at any *rate ... *pun INtended!] facts and figures ... in a somewhat feverish [albeit not altogether successful] attempt to convince a good friend of mine who's a "financial wizard" that I WILL (ultimately) go along with his wise counsel as to how to maximise my modest savings ... based on my Occupational & State Pensions, respectively.

    As one who is about to embark on the visa process, you can well-imagine the effect the outlay of the past 15 months or so has had on my "piggy bank". And, with the [belated] honeymoon looming on the not-too-distant horizon, I thought it prudent to sort out my priorities!!!

    But now, I'm back in infinitely more familiar (and interesting) territory ... immersed in the "written (or rather ... typed) word" ... which I have long-regarded as being my true forte'!

    FOOTNOTE: ... Wish I knew the "secret" for accentuating expressions like touche' and forte'.

    and Scottish pound notes which are no use in the Philippines?!
    But seriously, I was beginning to worry ... had I offended you ? or were you stuck in the train on your way to Paris ?

    And *which [apparently] are of even LESS use south of Carlisle ... if someone's post on the relevant thread is to be believed!

    You HAVEN'T offended me, my friend ... nor have I been stranded in the Channel Tunnel ... yet!
