Hope you enjoyed your meal (especially Mary - though I suppose she didnt have much appetit after the flu).

Same to you from me (though I am not enjoying NY very much as I have a nasty cold which has provoked an asthmatic reaction - I have suffered from that for 30 years and it always passes  OK once I take the right drugs...!)

Hope we all have a good (better!) year...

Here's wishing all our members a Very Happy New Year.

My wife had a flu over Christmas and wasn't able to join the family on a Christmas dinner in our local pub restaurant on Boxing Day.
It lingered all week (aches, tiredness and a recurring headache) but I'm pleased to say she has is feeling much better today and we are all going for a New Years dinner/family gathering in a lovely restaurant in Belfast close to my sons house.

Happy New Year

Indeed we have plenty of magpies and pigeons (and squirrels!) that we do not want to feed. We used to get lots of nice small birds but no longer. We have tried scattering some lion poo which seems to have deterred the cats but we still havent seen small birds.

Reviews / Great Support received from George

Bank Genie Pro is a most welcome software that fills a hole after the withdrawal of Microsoft Money for regular individuals. I have installed the software now on a second laptop under Win 11 and encountered some problems due to Win 11 interraction with VisualPro. I placed an email to support and was pleasantly surprised to benefit from immediate support and problem solving. George was a godsend and he seems to know the inner asspect of this software so his approach in solving the problem was second to none and in no time from the support request. Thank you George and wish or developers look after their clients the way you do. Thank you.

This is now out for publishing.

I have just given a copy of each of my books to our local library.

Our cats do not seem to bother with the birds any more. Too old to go chasing I think. Mind we don't get many small birds in any case. there is far too much food available around us. Everyone seems to feed them (and the b"£"£$ squirrels) Rooks, crows, pigeons and magpies are our feathereds.
