Sorry you've been plagued with retinal migraines, Nigel. I hope you'll soon be better.

I agree - migraines are awful. Hope they clear up soon!

I haven't received Journal 66 yet.
I received some post in August that was posted in April so I hope it will eventually come.
The postal service is in bad shape.

That must be terribly frustrating, Lenoir. I'm sure it would be all right for someone to PM you the latest password, if you need it to get into the secret part of the website, otherwise you are excluded, I guess.

That does sound annoying, Lenoir. I hope your Journal arrives this week. In the meantime, let us know if you want access to the Secret Passage.

Yes it is annoying. I hope it hasn't got "lost".
I must be patient but might have to make alternative plans again for the next journal.

Yes I would like to get back into the serials so please PM me the password.

I've sent you a PM. - Anita

My journal was in the post box today! If I had been Bets I would have run out and hugged the postman.

And if it had been a post woman delivering it, I bet you definitely would have, Lenoir. :wink: :D

It is a great Journal - I started reading, then stopped as I want to read it completely undisturbed whilst away on vacation in October.

It was good to have a journal to read again. Thanks to all the contributors and Tony.

I particularly enjoyed Sid's account of his wonderful evening and the interesting comparisons between Enid and Edith Nesbit.
Richard Kent's letter was interesting, he had a lot to get off his chest!
I will have to look at updating the index sometime.
