I live in the USA, Oklahoma no less. I enjoy reading the postings from other countries and the language that is spoken in different parts of the world.

I wish all of you a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Dear Robert,

I fear that you have carried cultural integration a little too far, although they had a different term for it in the old empire days.

As a Brit settled in a new country, may I venture to say that one must not lose sight of the correct use of language, particularly when communicating with a wide international audience, whatever one must do when within the local society.

I think I understand the gist of what you were writing, although some of the more colloquial terms escaped me.

Suffice that I return the compliment and wish you and your wife a happy and prosperous New Year.

Yours most sincerely,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

How on earth did this 9 year old post find the light of day again, posted in the days when this was a fun forum to be a contributor on and before you became a member, your addition to the forum was like a breath of fresh air and we had a lot of friendly bantor going on with Dafydd, Barry and a few others.

How things change

Anyway I hope you and your partner find everything you are looking for in 2017

Thanks for the kind words, Robert. It was indeed great fun to become part of the forum. Perhaps something of that will be regained in 2017 - we can but try!

When I saw the old post, I thought - 10years, a long time and a lot of water under the bridge, but I shall treat it as if it were now, and take you to task for being too integrated! lol.

Thanks for the good wishes.

As one gets older I think we all appreciate the value of old friends and family and how important it is to live each day. The young (as we once were as well) think they are immortal, but they know they have their lives ahead and so it is an immortaility with a backstop, so to speak.

When one gets older, we come to terms with the realisation there is no backstop any longer and also, if we are lucky in health and prosperity, we can act as if we are immortal, but with the real freedom of no backstop!

When I went out again to my lovely island in the Philippines in 2014, I had no idea of what my future would be, but the freedom of leaving the UK at the age of 62 with no keys of any sort with me - none - was wonderful! Cool or what?

Anyway, enough philosophy, have a good one wherever you may be.

Cheers

When I first started reading thsi thread I was thinking 'hmmm this is ceratainly and old thread dug up again' ... and then realized what was happening.

This was nice to see. I'm sure some are thinking that this has nothing to do with addressing 'issues' ... and that's true but.... this is nice to see - when old friends/aquaintences meet.

Happy New Year guys.

Always good to swap greetings and a small catch up at this time of year, makes the forum less of a "garage" for fixing things (effective and successful though it is!!) and more of a club where members can interact on a theme and within a subject, so to speak.

Cheers
