I hope they are busy, out there and enjoying life but there seems to be a lack of input from a few, used-to-be prolific and creatively entertaining posters.
Right now, I'm thinking of Hobbsy and AS - there are probably more...
Anyone know anything ?

I think Hobbes threw a wobbly after being temporarily banned 'again' because of PE's immaturity.

I was wondering why he suddenly stopped posting given how prolific he has been

OK, thanks. As long as that is all it is. I wondered about his health...

I was only guessing. I hope it's not a health thing too. Perhaps he's around here somewhere under a different name

Obviously the thread topic requires clarification.

Vraiment, mais ce n'est pas grande chose. Alors, since you ask, I recently found myself in the same situation as you, in that my mother passed away. Heartbreaking, of course, but in a way a relief. My mum would have hated infirmity, and given that she was 91, she was under no illusion about her future. In a way, I was proud of what i took to be her decision to let go.
Parents, good ones, are like children, in that everyone thinks theirs is the best, but mine actually was

So sorry to hear that, uwot. I hope you have plenty of support around you. Consider yourself mightily hugged. And yes, there is a bitter-sweetness to this dying thing. Missing. Losing. And yet, a new beginning...of sorts...
Stay strong.
