Hi all, this is the last Salon by me for a long while, I am taking a sabbatical. It's now more than 4 years since I have started doing the Salon, I loved and enjoyed it and learned a lot from doing it. However, currently it has become more like a straightjacket, having to show up regularly and spending so much time on ET without actually being able to join in the discussions.

I will be around, maybe at the beginning a little less, am also trying to reduce my internet time, but then on and off for joining in on what's going on at ET.

Fran, thank you for all of your efforts. ET has been blessed with your selfless contributions and we are richer for your having been here.

We will miss your reduced presence but I certainly undestand you need a break. Fare well.

keep to the Fen Causeway

I was just writing a note saying how superb today's Salon is, and how much strength you give it generally. I was going to propose a plaque or official medal and title for your wall...

...then see this.

Life changes. What you have given and what you will give, is appreciated.

Thanks and continue to be/do/have well.

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
