Wow, you certainly deserve all the potholders you want for making such an effort!
And this :kiss: , too!

Here's flowers and a cake all in one (I don't know, maybe there's rice in the cake, too :P ) :

Sunsilver and Andri! There are two people I've missed on this board. :hug: Welcome! 8)

And, speaking of flowers for Andri...

Good to see you here, Jude! :hug:

A little birdie told me that Jude is beginning to find that tedious. ;) :D

It's a pot-holder (we think)! (Though I'm sure it would look quite becoming sitting on your head, too) :D

But as a pot-holder, you may use it to protect your hands when you serve me my hot chocolate!

:P

I thought we agreed to wait a few days before telling new members about the indentured servitude. . . .
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Jude! What pleasure to see you here! I've been wondering what was the one thing, the only thing missing from making this board perfect. Now I realized that of course it was pictures of Sam and Anna!

Welcome! :wave:

And did I miss any other new arrivals? Welcome friends.

Jude, my dear friend! How lovely to see that you have safely made the crossing. :love:

:hug:

And I don't care if you're tired of seeing "Hey, Jude," cuz I like to say it once in a blue moon. =:)

Not more often than that, though. :D

Oh, and :hug:s to Sam and Anna, too.


Shall I make up a big fat lie and say Buddy and Bear send hugs to Sam and Anna?

I wonder what they'd have to say to each other in RL.

Probably: bark, bark! Arf, arf! Grr, grr. Bark. Arf. Grr.

Or somethingn like that. :D

Contrary to popular belief, it doesn't annoy me when people say "Hey Jude" - although it sometimes irks me when they apologize for it afterwards. :D

Scene 1: Jude meets a new acquaintance
Other person: Hey Jude! Oh, sorry, you must be tired of hearing that all the time.
Jude: :suspicious:
Scene 2: six months later
Other person: Hey Jude!
Jude: Hey, other person!

Now that this board is complete, let the festivities begin!

LOL, sorry Jude - I thought that your not wanting to be Jude on a messageboard anymore was because you were tired of hearing "hey Jude"! :D

Prim - ooops, yes I forgot! :D
