Welcome, Siberian! :wave:
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”

Perfectly understandable, freddy. After all, that thread is discussing issues related to your livelihood.

Thanks, then. Is there a place to talk about cancer? It's such a scary word, but some of us have to deal. I don't want to be tiresome.

Welcome back, Ethel! You are certainly very welcome here. What you say worries me, though. :(

Bag End is a good place for threads about personal and health issues. Nothing posted there shows up on Google or is visible to nonmembers.
