...you are a master at this, Ken! And quite a romantic, I noticed.
Lots of good tips here, even for an old hen like me!

It is a fact that your kind words on my first reviews gave me the encouragement to continue on. I go back to those first reviews on occasion just to remember what it was like. It helps me in my rating and welcoming new contributers to this site.

I've missed your not being around these parts.

This was excellent advice!! I will keep this as reference to always be sure I follow the points you have given.

I had never considered a home page with photos. I suppose this computer illiterate can start to figure it out.

Thanks again and I do hope we all hear from you again soon!!

OK. It's official. I am an idiot. A forgetful idiot.

You have indeed done a 'Travel' review in both of these 'lean-n-mean'
write-offs. Doh!


At least Ken now knows it _can_ be done...:-)

Hey Ken, after looking at your last few reviews on your user-page (hey! we have to know if you are really doing all this stuff!) I have to leave you the URL below.

Can one write 'lean-n-mean' in 'travel'? I don't know. I don't think anyone attempted it in the first write-off and certainly not in this current version.


But hey, this one? Very nicely done!
