Gets kinda lonely here. The Village ain’t what it usta be. 5/10/17.

@PCOLLI

Both 6 and 3 are AWOL lately.

@FANOLIO

I’m still here, I just stopped coming because there was hardly anybody commenting. Time to move on to pastures new I think…

@NUMBER THREE

Don’t leave us. I’m still looking forward to seeing the results of your DNA test. :-)

@FANOLIO

You posted that comment 4 days ago and I’ve only just seen it now! My DNA Sample is currently being tested in the lab so it’s onto it’s 3rd stage after “Activated” and “Arrival”

I will be posting a video here I promise!

Well, Villagers. My DNA results are in and as promised, I have made a video. Enjoy!

@NUMBER THREE

I have not been online lately due to a computer crash. I hope to be back up to speed in a day or two. I have a lot of catching up to do.

@NUMBER THREE

I just watched your DNA video. It was indeed fascinating. You have quite an interesting mix of ancestors. Sorry it took me so long to get around to it. I have been having a lot of other problems lately.

@FANOLIO

I hope by “problems” you mean the computerized kind?

The Village is empty…… everyone must be watching Wimbledon.

Hello?

I’m still here.

I’m wondering how FANOLIO is.

Has “the village” moved on, or is it defunct?

@6 All we have to do to keep it alive is to use it now & then. (With emphasis on the now.)

YAY!!!! Now, what was I saying…….?

Seeing as there no trolls here:

Yesterday I went to a beach quite far away from where I live (I got the train) and I made a video with my tablet of the waves crashing onto the shore.

“Beautiful” is not really the word for it.

@NUMBER SIX

I am going to wait for LINGUIST to get back before I continue my rant. Not much more to relate anyway. Maybe ELDO and some others may also want to join us.

I will have an update on my rant in a day or three. But don’t let that bring the Village to a stop. Somebody say something. Wha’s hoppenin’ ?

@Number Six

Thank you, I didn’t think anybody had saw my comment.

Sorry to hear of your experience with the ignorant driver. A while ago a train I was on was jam packed because Newcastle Utd were playing at home. I was lucky enough to get a seat. I was actually dreading getting off at my stop because the doors were blocked with people standing shoulder to shoulder. But it didn’t turn out so bad because as soon as I stood up the passengers by the doors “manoeuvred” and somebody (a young man as it happens) was holding me by the waist so I wouldn’t fall over. I got off my stop and said “Thank you so much” I really was grateful. Luckily, I’m not claustrophobic.

Yeah I know it’s not the same as your experience but there are still some lovely, decent people in the world. The driver on your train just wasn’t one of em’

Hope you are doing gooooooood!

@SIX & THREE

Once about ten years ago my wife and I were a little late boarding a train in Troon. The chap on the platform who gives the train driver the ok to go signal saw we were moving slowly and allowed us to board making the train about a minute late. :o)

@Steve Are you alright? I don’t think I’m the only Villager worried about you. Give us a shout when you can. BCNU.

I think we are going to have to send Rover out to bring Steve back.

Just popping in to say “Hi, yawl!” (If any of you happen to be a small sailing vessel……..)

@NUMBER SIX

With that kind of money you could have bought Andy a brewery or two.

@Eldo.

Six tried to email you but you’re email has changed.

My wife’s birthday, our anniversary and Valentine’s Day are all in the same week! Big trouble if I forget…
