I know a lot of Forum members (especially here in the U.K.) will remember the BBC comedy "The Good Life" , and in particular there Christmas special, where 'Margot' cancelled Christmas because the tree wasn't the right size. She used the expression "Yuletide Felicitations" and I've always thought that this was something different at this time of year, so "YULETIDE FELICITATIONS" to all Forum members (or a "Merry Christmas" & "Happy New Year" ).

I hope everyone gets what they want in there stocking this year, and I hope every Forum member enjoys themselves over the Festive period, and I look forward to speaking to you in 2008 (hasn't this year just flown by!).

Keep warm, Keep Safe, Keep well.

Barry.

To all the great dealers who are supporting our hobby...to the great technicians who share their knowledge on squeezing the most out of the magical 8mm size and the great members who share information and trade films ....all the best and a great New Year awaits!! [Smile]

We seem to have two separate topics with the same sentiment.

What's occurring here. [Confused]

Maybe we have been entering them in the wrong section. [Eek!]

David,

We members are but aimless wonderers in a cyber world. Posting with wild abandon stumbling without direction. Oh merciful moderators where are ye. Please guide us down the path of organized topics. [Big Grin]

Isn't "Felicitations" a naughty term. [Big Grin]

Were the type of guys,
who like to fool around,
with the film and the reels,
and fiddling with the sound,
and when someone suggests,
switching to DVD,
We put on another reel,
and pull down dat screen ...

Cuz we're the wonderers
Yeah we're the wonderers,
Reels go around ana round ana round and round!

For the un-enlightened, sung to the tune of "The Wanderer")

Oh dear!!

Clearly we're all as mad as each other!! [Big Grin]

You don't have to be mad to be a Forum member, - but it obviously helps. [Roll Eyes]

Anyway, Happy Christmas, anyway, again.
