I want to say a great big THANK YOU!!to a certain gentleman who in spite of the freezing weather, came all the way out to the outer edges of the realm, to rescue a certain damsel in distress, and retrieve certain academic files from the fire breathing computer demon!



You know who you are! Thank you oh so very much!:-4 You are a diamond!

Think it takes more than an eraser to remove spot. :wah:

Was it our new computer-savvy member who's name I can't at present recall?

No. I dont know that fella. But the gentleman I refer to has been a friend for quite awhile. If he wants to claim credit for his good deed, then it is up to himself to do so.

I just want to publicly acknowledge his effort was greatly appreciated. I owe him a dinner! :-6

It was just having fun with language.

What a wonderful gentleman and it was refreshing to read that there are still people in this world that will offer help without expecting anything in return. Hats off to this person and I'm glad everything worked out for you Raven.

Lol, my thoughts exactly. :)

What a nice guy to help you get back all your uni work Raven hunni. :)

If not Spot, then my second guess would be Snowfire, otherwise I'm outta guesses.

But I'm guessing it's Spotalicious, that's exactly the kind of nice gentlemanly thing he would do, bless his cotton socks. :-6

Aw bless him, yes he would. But it was not Spot. :-4 Or Snowfire. It would have been too difficult for him to get here, from his place.

You know who you are! Thank you oh so very much!:-4 You are a diamond! It does restore your faith in mankind when some-one does this.

I had a massive compliment just before Christmas from our Beat Police Manager and he said that out of thousands of people in his area, I was only one of a few he could count on one hand who went the extra mile for their community. I have had long conversations with him about this in the past and how we live In such a selfish society.

I have knocked on all the Oldies doors in the last two days asking them if they need shopping or salt and cat litter for their paths because although It's a horrid thing to say, the truth is, no-one else will bother.

We need to get that community spirit back Into our communities and start looking out for others

Oh I so agree with you! Just goes to show a little love goes a very loooooong way! :-4 Good on you Oscar! Those oldies you speak of, are some of the most very vulnerable in our society today. And they are going to grow in number soon. Bless 'em.
