Hello again!!

[Colin G. 147]

Hello strangers, thought it was about time I made an appearance again, seem to be getting some time on my hands again and the coins are starting to call again!!

 

In the meantime I have become a grandparent as well....so coin collecting is definitely now more fitting as well. Hope you are all well, and for those that joined after I made my departure....hello

Yay, some hammered farthing (not penny) banter coming on!

Hope you're well, Happy New Year to you and your's, by the way! 

Good to have you checking back in again!

Wondered where you had got to. Life must have been busy not to make the Midland either for the past half a year or so. Welcome back.

Welcome Back and Congratulations.....

[Colin G. 147]

Good to see all the old faces still here......I had planned to go to some of the Midland fairs but life just seemed to get in the way all the time. 

So can anyone give me a summary of what has happened in the last 12 months or do I need to read all those threads?

[Coinery 1,157]

Well, there was this penny post, right, and then there was this post about pennies (which was different because it had 'ies' in it), and then there was something about CGS and a little bit of general TPGC discussion, and...

Well, that should bring you up to date, really! Probably just around where you left off?

[Colin G. 147]

Like I never left
