I'm sure he would post if he could so he must be quite disabled in several ways - recover is sometimes slow - we have to let the drugs kick in and the body recover in its own time and the mind itself too sometimes.

not as cold this morning think rain is on the way

not me - always one of the failings of the internet in a way -  I lost touch with a few dear friends over the years - one a tracked down deceased in an Oregan motorway pile up - imagine that - did manage to talk to his son and ex on facebook! - another dear friend just punched the name into the internet and up comes a tribute from her son - article in the guardian - she was deceased 2 yrs. One lesson painfully learned never throw away old address books they can be invaluable. Mart seems to have disappeared too?

no  thats the thing with the internet you can soon lose touch i thought maybe his wife might have posted something  just to let us know because when your not well the last thing you think of is going on
the computer  is Malcolm the only mod on here ?

You may remember a member here called Gandalph who suddenly vanished off the scene. It so happened that I was helping my wife trace some distant family who she wanted to contact (She was tracing her male line ancestry). I subscribed to 192.com and bought a few credits.

I was aware of Gandalphs name from Emails we had previously exchanged and was aware he lived in a small town on the Scots borders. So I used one of my credits to trace him.

Fortune was on my side - it was a small town and his surname wasn't very common so the 192 search revealed only three possibilities. One was too young - one was married and the third a widower. This was enough to identify him because he was a widower.

So, since Emails to him had not been answered I wrote letters to him and his immediate neighbours. His son replied that Gandalph had died suddenly a few months ago - which I posted on this forum and Malcolm removed him from the members list.

So - if someone has Malcs full name and the town he lives in plus his age range and a few quid to spend - the 192.com search service might reveal his address depending on how many people meet the criteria.  The bigger the town - the more possible hits.

Mart hasn't been on the forum since last October.

This place has become God's waiting room by the look of things - I hope it isn't catching
