Cry for Advice (from Those Wiser than ... )
Hello to everyone Out There:
Does anyone have a use, or know a use, or know someone who does have a use, for "old" (i.e. used once or twice) VHS were-blank (i.e. not pre-recorded) video tapes ?
I ask because, in tidying, I have come across "one or two" and would rather they went to a use, if there is one, than went to land-fill.
Thank you. -

It has, inevitably, come to that time of year when I realise that my best hopes have withered on the vine, and that there will be limited or no Christmas cards sent out this year.

Back after a long time
... but now a Retired Man, having bid my erstwhile employers a farewell.
Now I have a Beloved, a Bear and Two Kittens to fill my life.
And, possibly, some more writing.
We shall see.
