I headed up this thread 'the easy way' since I feel it is a cheat, but it really is impractical for me to try to individually say hello to each new member who has joined in the last couple of months whilst I have been away. However, a very warm welcome to each and every one of you.
It is a lovely to see so many new IDs, and I look forward to getting to know the people behind them. I hope you are all finding your feet here in forums and enjoying the companionship.
