  • Is anyone here friends with @Slowlyfading away from the forum? I notice that they have not been on since: Last Active 15 February at 6:00PM. I hope that they are ok.
    I am ok thanks - just trying to juggle too many things, as per usual! Thanks for the concern; nothing to worry about here.

    Delighted to hear it slowly!
