Title: Me and my selfish attitude
Post by: Gonnagle on February 04, 2018, 11:06:49 AM
Dear Friends,

A short apology for not posting, life has been a bit of a bumpy road lately, but that is no excuse for not keeping in touch, so I would like to sincerely apologies for my selfishness.

Oh Gonners, so good to see you, mate.  :D

I get the bumpy road thing, sometimes it feels like it has to be walked alone (although it doesn’t), and when things smooth out a bit I’ve found that friends are still there and pleased to see me. As we are you.

Thank goodness you are still with us, :) I was beginning to think the worst, as you were such a regular poster.
YOU HAVE BEEN MISSED.

I'm sorry Gonners back 2 minutes and already Ive got to mod you. Surely you have read the amended rule 49, section d. Sub section 37, paragraph 4a. ?

This states that the words 'old' & 'trent' should never be used in conjunction. Please do not repeat this heinous crime otherwise I will be forced to travel North to reinforce this strictest of rules

Good! When I am unable to post any longer, my next-door neighbour will put a post in the forums I belong to!

Certainly still tapping - the newer members of the group have learnt the Advanced Quick Sequence and we are all dancing a bit faster than we used to too because the speed control on my machine won't go any slower.  :)

Hi there Gonners glad to think you're still with us and O K too, I've acquired a grandson since you've been away, the mother is an ex-Glaswegian, we've hung a tablet around her neck that has one of those translation apps, it's helped me find out you're not that bad you and yours when we can understand you.

Apart from that welcome back.

Kind regards, ippy

Dear ippy,

Thanks Granddad ;) and no need for a translation app, just take two large drams and everything we say soon makes sense :P

Four minim beats to the bar instead of four crotchet beats to the bar (which is the far more common 4/4).

It means that the metronome beat is slower.

I completely misread S D's post, don't know why but I did, got you.
