He’s the John Deacon of the mods with the difference being if Zig tells us it’s shit and embarrassing we listen. Though if more money was involved we might not.

Hi all. It’s been far too long since I have been here. For reasons that are my own, I haven’t been on any social media for quite some time. This is my first post anywhere since…can’t remember when. I can’t think of a better pond in which to re-submerge my toe.

Most of all, I hope everyone is healthy. I browsed the first couple of pages in the Coronavirus thread and was not at all surprised to see the outpouring of support. It made my heart feel good. The virus has taken three of my friends, almost took a fourth. So, I did not have the heart to go through the entire thread for fear of more bad news. Again, hoping for the best for all of you.

Knock wood, Zag and I are in good health. She gets her first vaccine in a few days and I get my second one in about three weeks. Our dog Lily is still with us (15 years old!) and now she has a brother named Brody. He is a Walker Coonhound that we rescued in March of 2020 – one week before the stay-at-home orders. We have been working from home ever since – Zag and I, not the dogs. They just eat, poop and play.

Thanks very much to those who reached out to me personally via email. I knew I’d be back here eventually. The benefits of my self-imposed ban of all social media have been many and wonderful. The only drawback has been not staying in touch with my virtual friends. I miss chatting about The Beatles with folk who know more than just the four names. I don’t know how frequently I will post, but it’s good to be back…slowly.

Taking a leave of absence from social media does indeed sound wonderful, and I’m glad to hear it was refreshing. I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say that we’re honored to be your first choice in re-entering virtual life!

Very sorry for your loss a-hard-days-night-paul-10heartapple01 but it’s wonderful to have you back – in whatever capacity you feel comfortable. apple01apple02george-martin

The following forumpudlians have been gone for a long time, and if I missed anything about why they’re gone, can somebody let me in on that?:

@sigh butterfly 

@trcanberra 

@parlance 

@mr. Sun king coming together 

@Mr. Kite 

@MeanMrsMustard 

@Martha (beautiful profile pic, btw.)

@skye 

@Father McKenzie 

there’s a lot more, and I do understand why posters like @Zig aren’t currently on the forum.

I can answer a few of these, but many pre-date me!

Probably (hopefully) just busy. We’ll see him again soon. 

Although I struggle to reconcile the fact it’s been nearly 5 months?? Could of sworn he was on recently… 

trcanberra 

Other things arrived in his life – @HongKongLady was a big one. Can confirm they’re both well. 

martha (beautiful profile pic, btw.)

I used to have long PM conversations with her (and I know others did too), she went through a rough patch just before she left but I think she’s oka-hard-days-night-paul-10

Parlance was one of the very good ones on here; contributed a hell of a lot and was always good to have around (she was brilliant when a handful of us resurrected a thread that some dopey mod deleted by mistake within about a week of starting).
