momac & basil brush,
Thank you for your kind words.
I am sorry to say, that due to being verbally attacked and greatly insulted by one poster, which I would like to add that it was not the first time as he had used some vulgar language previously, even used the 'f' word at a time when I was relatively unknown to this site and I had only contributed to threads in a normal and mature way, and the insults were recognised by tp and bb, I am now feeling that it would be more comfortable for me to take a break from this site.
Some of us deal with extremely sad events and handling the days as they come-and-go is not always easy. I have lost dear friends to early deaths and suicide, also had emotional difficulties to support a dear friend and family when their school-age daughter was murdered. My partner, who is strongly involved in the medical field, is working hard and long hours to help patients to overcome serious issues and my partner is dealing, week in and week out, with patients suffering from the covid virus symptons; some do recover, but some have been sadly lost to this virus.
On this site, many of us are merely names of our choosing and the true character of the person behind that chosen name is difficult to perfectly assess.
I have sometimes tried my best to protect some posters by giving them some support, only to learn that the one or more posters wish to vent their spleen on me.
Again, please accept my apologies to those who think that I have spoilt a thread which was to be a rather pleasant thread.
