Cheers Tony & Anita!
Please join me as I raise a glass to Tony & Anita:
I would just like to express my thanks at the end of the year to Tony and Anita for all the hard work they have done yet again on our behalf.
The Journals produced this year from Tony have been superb - except for the Winter 2018 I am due to read, but I'm sure it will be marvellous.
The time, effort and research that goes into creating each Journal must be very considerable indeed.
If you haven't subscribed yet, why not take the plunge in the New Year of 2019?
The constant updating of the Cave with new found old material and info about future book releases has been most helpful too.
Then we have the answers to queries left most days on the website's main page. All handled with politeness and well researched answers.
And don't we have an absolutely superb moderate moderator in Anita -
( I think that's what she told me to say!! )
Seriously, just for a moment, thank you both very much for all you do - it is really appreciated by every single one of us, yes even Daisy!!!
*dodges back of Daisy's hand - too late - whack!!!*
Best Wishes and Thank You Both!
Pete

A lovely and well deserved tribute, Pete, though not sure why you single me out as you did.

Cheers Both. The pleasures you've given this Welsh man since I discovered this wonderful society are heart warming.

Cheers! My son and daughter are both home at the moment and we're enjoying board games, walks, a bit of TV and plenty of chocolate!

Re: Cheers Tony & Anita!
I echo what Pete says - thank you both for all you do, both 'front of house' and 'behind the scenes' to keep the forums and the society running smoothly.
