Yes, Hapey New Year to all.

As you say David I do hope it starts better than 2016 ended for us. Only got
out of Hospital on Christmas Day, unfortunately, with a nasty chest
infection I picked up whilst in there.

Then you'd better remember Rule No1 and 2:
1. Don't get old.
2. Don't get ill.

Sadly, can't do much about either!

Happy New Year to all.

ITYM fogey, which he didn't say he was,


Not explicitly, I agree but he does imply it when he says he's '@ a
*fogy* side of Swansea Bay' (Yes, I *know* its a typo)

Well I'm surprised that so many can get messages from my old computer,
and I have said I came from Hastings many years ago.though I never meet
up with Harold or William (or Viking Billy as we knew him).
Could be I'm trying to forget 2016 as my wife died on the 20th of Dec,
and I'm still trying to come to terms with the loss.
So I really mean it when I hope for a better new year,
Taffy

My wife's mother died on the 7th.

My wife spent Christmas morning staring into a bucket (from 1am).

Let's hope next year is better than this.

Happy New Year everyone.

Sorry that you have lost your wife. I lost mine last Easter and can
appreciate how you must be feeling.
One good thing I can say for 2016 is that the Israelis seem to have
cracked the problem of desalination on a large scale.
Let's hope that 2017 is a better year.

much missing the head gardener who has moved onto a much bigger and
better garden.

Not been here for many years, but sorry to hear of your personal losses, and hope the beautiful flowers in your gardens in 2017 remind you of your losses.
Peace to all, and here's to a better year, as your loved ones would wish.

I'm another who can empathise with you, David, as I lost my wife very
suddenly fifteen months ago. I found that keeping busy was the best way
of coping with the loss.

Will be keeping you in my thoughts.

David

So sorry to hear of your loss. Please try and remember all the good
times you have shared with her, cry a lot and talk a lot with friends who
have known her.

So sorry to hear your sad news, we will pray for you. I hope my
slightly inocent jest and the plethora of replies has not
caused you more concern, but at least many people have sharde
their sympathies with you.

God Bless you

Thanks everyone plenty to do sorting things.
Roger, I should have read it back before posting, esp the date.

Oh David! I'm so very sorry to hear your news. I knew from your posts
that your wife had been ill for some time, but it must still be the most
horrendous shock for you. Take care of yourself and don't try and do
too much too soon. With deepest sympathy from myself and RG.
