He says he's safe at the moment but right now requires time to himself and more than a little R & R. Hopefully, he'll be back to his old ways as soon as is possible... Andy Thanks General, It's great to know that the Great Tenticaled One is doing well and on the mend to a speedy and complete recovery. Its been rather quiet and tame here (CC not withsanding)without the the crusty ,cantankerous and always illuminating tidbits of wit and wisdom from Imperious leader of the 4 rock from the sun. I'm sure when he returns he will have many a tale of Awe, Mystifcation and Derring Do to regale us mere mortals with. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spadgent Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I was wondering why it had all gone quiet. 😔 Hope you get on the mend soon. Take your time dear boy. 🦑 John. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) Yes I too was wondering ( and worrying a little ) if @Martian was ok. The forum’s just that little bit too quiet without him. Hope all is well and he makes a recovery sooner rather than later. Edited October 24, 2020 by Marklo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Ranger Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 The entire Corps of Space Rangers is glad to hear this news and wishes The Tentacled One a speedy recovery. Our patrols have been rather boring what with his being out of action lately. We miss the excitement! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

general melchett Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Thanks chaps, I'll pass this on to the old fella, he'll appreciate it. Pete, I'll have to print that off and pin it to every tree and telephone pole in the neighbourhood, I have a feeling we'll be needing a local Dad's Army the way things are going... 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Thanks for sharing that @general melchett ! I think that's the first time I've seen you post your real name so I can appreciate that our dear Martian is not at all well. May he recover quickly. If he doesn't, we'll send in the goat! and CC and beer! Ian 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

general melchett Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Hi guys, little update, I spoke to Martian today, at length and I'm pleased to say he sounded a whole lot brighter, compared to last week. I thought you'd like to know that things have improved for him recently and he feels he's in a much better place now. He very much appreciates the level of concern and well wishing, means a lot to him......bottom line, I have a strong feeling he'll be back to his old ways in the not too distant future.

Terry1954 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 That's great news Andy. Thanks for the update. I may make contact myself this weekend. Terry 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general melchett Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Thanks chaps I know he'll appreciate this and will pass it on. He's had a complete break from everything recently, including online forums, but he'll catch up with it all at some point. He's slowing getting there, some of his spark has returned, he even threatened to take the Mem and myself for a quick paddle around Poole harbour, (going 'off piste' as he put it) in his old dinghy when restrictions allow. Of course, this could well be a cunning plan, not sure. Quote I may make contact myself this weekend. You should do that Terry... Thanks again on his behalf.
