Happy New Year to All, and Kudos to ...

Here's wishing everyone on the Foro a Happy New Year! I very much enjoy reading the thoughts and comments of members whose varied and eclectic interests all intersect on the subject of flamenco. This is the only forum/blog I participate in, and I am fortunate to have met and become friends with a few members.

I especially want to join others in expressing kudos to Simon, who keeps the Foro going with good humour and the occasional laconic comment. (Not to mention his wonderful photographs!) Thanks, Simon!

Let's hope 2018 brings everyone good cheer and fulfillment of goals.

Cheers,

Bill

All of that applies to me as well, I couldn't have stated it better, so I quoted Bill (in the best scientific tradition).
Happy New Year all!

Thanks Bill. I resolve to take a lot more photos in 2018 and start using my film cameras again.

Happy New Year everyone!
