I wish some people here had been more direct and sincere with me instead of cowardly displaying their affection with vituperation and disparagement.

We're not all from the Upside-Down of the UK, you know.

It’s the last of 2025 which hasn’t been a great year by most standards; so why not do yourself a favour and take the day off, rest up, watch some fireworks and come back rebooted and rejuvenated for an improved 2026.

Happy New Year 👍🏼

As I already said, the one you are most dishonest with is yourself.

Thank you, @diver. Not a bad idea.

Happy New Year to you as well!

VR, you might be showing your age. 😉

A lot of the younger people these days might not even know what a chalkboard is, let alone a slate.

(Even fewer would understand any reference to "spirit slates" -- which are usually shown to be wiped clean before mysterious writings appear.)

Kevin,
With age comes some wisdom, you may try to have a little respect for those older than you starting in 2026 and be more respectful to everyone. Let's see if you are able to do that. Seems you may also be showing your age and how immature you can be at times.

I think most know what I am talking about starting with a Clean Slate!!!

Keep in mind with google you can find out just about anything!!! 😉

VR (my senior), I have slightly fond memories of when everyone thought you were such a pest for always trying to have the last word in many threads.

I hope you appreciate that in my own way I am trying to show my respect by following in your footsteps. 😉

P.S. -- by Google could you have meant Wikipedia? 😉

Actually what you saw is what you shouldn't do, following in my footsteps not such a great idea my old friend. Just ask anyone they will tell you! 😉

I believe I was once voted most disliked person on the site in a draw with someone but can't remember who it was, you see as you get older you can have selective memory!!!

Thank you for your kind advice. In that case I should let you have the last word (eventually). 😉

Kevin,
Most don't even bother to try to get the last word in anymore. 😉
