Default Christmas Wishes from Ma Yappy to MLU-ers

Greetings to all of you MLU-ers all across the many miles of the world ... I thought I would like to start a thread to send you all a little of the Christmassy Spirit that is striking me ... I'll start with sending you all a Christmas Card (please forgive the fact that I'm an extreme amateur when it comes to using these programs, or I'd have done a musical animated thing of beauty) ... and a link to send you to, to receive some pleasure through Christmassy sounds radio channels ... notice the variety of styles of music to choose from

http://www.accuradio.com/holidays/

There will be more Christmas Spirit I add to this thread for you all to enjoy ...

MLU is so much more than a "place" ... it's a community of amazing and wonderful people and so much closer and personal in the many friendships found and growing strong ... it's special, as are MLU-ers!

Enjoy your Holidays, and enjoy this thread if you need a little oomph of Christmas Spirit from your friends!

From the Heart,

Karmen

Default Xmas Wishes

Hi Kartmann and all other MLUers

Xmas greeting from Ada & I to everyone. We have been busier than "one armed wallpaper hangers" so haven't been able to respond to some cards. In particular Cliff, beautiful card, thanks mate.

At school I had two professors who used to converse in Latin in the halls... but the one who scared me more was the guy who used to speak Gaelic to himself

I will take this oppertunity to wish all of you the best of festive season and all you hope for in the new year.Guess what guys and gals its my birthday today and my new years resolution is to now go in reverse. On a not so serious note i have enjoyed my time as a member of the MLU after nearly 40 years involved with this hobby in one way or another i did not think i would learn and see so much new information, so here's to another great year on the MLU site

all the best to all
Les

Merry Christmas, Keefy! I'm headed up to Uxbridge soon, to spend Christmas with my stepmom (who was married to my dad for 35 years) and her companion, who's a great guy. My kids are joining us Boxing Day. You know I've lost a love, but I have gained a new friend, which is far more important in the greater scheme of things. It's been a long year, but I'm charging into the next in my Slouch Hat, and we'll see where that takes us!



Beccy is going to sing to me now, before I go out and hail a cab to the bus station...
