Foul, you've got a great site created here, the community that's built up is fantastic.
I've missed a few guys that've disappeared over the years, bclarkie, demios etc etc, but those here have always been very friendly and helpful to a 'collector' with limited knowledge, resources and collection

I'd like to thank those people who've sent me messages of support and good wishes recently, and to those who've also bought parts of my what I had. I'm glad it's gone to good homes.

Bbarsh, Bill, good luck with your company and gaming products, they are always of the best quality, it's been a pleasure to work on some of them with you.
Mike and Doug, I hope the NTRPG keeps growing, shame I never got over the water.

As for the numerous others who've always been friendly and kind in their advice over the years, badmike, gotyourgames, verisimilitude, skeptrewhisp, prufrock, benjoshua, xralphx, dwarf, JasonZ, sardan, red_bus, serleran/copycat, aia, mars, faro, mbassoc, lokiwookie and too many others.. Thank you

If anyone wishes to stay in contact, my email address is
raistlin_13_uk@yahoo.co.uk

Cheers and thanks for the fun and memories
Dave

P.S Foul, if you'd close my account this week please, it'd be appreciated. Thank you

sorry I missed so much of what was going on in the past several months. Just wanted to say I hope you do well and I'm sorry to see you go from the site but I completely understand you got to do what you feel is best.
All the best to you.

Hi,

thanks Ash, I hope you get on OK.

I am about to go thru exactly what you have - my husband of 30 years has left for a younger woman. I am devastated.

Good luck to you.

Cheers,
KAL

Truly hoping both of you find peace in uncertain times. The world we live in sometimes is not kind but there are more good times to be had. On every journey there is turbulence (oftentimes more than we can bear), but we always get to where we were going.

Good luck and God bless,

Hector

Ashmire,

I thought the following appropriate:

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Wow KAL. Sorry to hear that.

Sorry to lose any member of the community, especially one as good as you, Ash. I really hope whatever issues you are having, well, in the future if they have been worked out you could pop back on and say hello. I know some community members have left for long periods of time, but sometimes drift back here, I hope you are one of them. If you ever get across the ocean to the USA, make it during NTRPG con, and we'll hope to see you there. Take care.

Dave, I'll flip the switch on your account tomorrow. If you ever have a change of heart (or circumstance), it's a simple matter to re-activate it; just let me know. Thanks for your contributions over the years, and best wishes for a speedy recovery --

Sorry to see you go, but take care of yourself. That is the most important thing.

I hate separations. This one is particularly sad.
Come back in the future Dave, if you can and want. It would certainly mean good news for your health.
I sincerely believe that your contributions will be missed.
Best wishes and take care as you can.
