DEAR FRIENDS,

I JUST WANTED TO WISH EVERYONE ON THIS MESSAGE BOARD A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HOPE YOU ALL HAVE THE BEST CHRISTMAS POSSIBLE UNDER THE CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES,

ITS BEEN A HORRID YEAR FOR EVERYONE AND I KNOW THE HEALTH FOR MANY OF MY FRIENDS HAS NOT BEEN GREAT AND SOME ON HERE HAVE LOVED ONES WHO ARE POORLY WHO WE ARE THINKING OF AT THIS TIME,

I HAVE NOT SEEN MY DAD SINCE MARCH THE 6TH AS HE IS IN A NURSING HOME AND HAS BEEN FOR 7 YEARS NOW BUT HOPEFUL WE MAY SEE HIM VERY SOON WHEN ITS SAFE TO DO SO,

AS WITH I AM SURE MANY OF YOU ON HERE WE ALL HAVE OUR HEALTH ISSUES AND TROUBLES TO DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS BUT SOMEHOW WE GET THROUGH EACH DAY HOW I DON'T KNOW BUT WE DO,

I ALSO ENJOY READING THE POSTINGS FROM EVERYONE AND ONE THING DAME SHIRLEY HAS DONE IS BROUGHT US ALL TOGETHER AND WE JUST SPEAK TO EACH OTHER BY NAME ONLY ON HERE,

ITS NICE SOMETIMES TO PUT A NAME TO A FACE BUT THAT CANNOT ALWAYS HAPPEN BUT I FEEL LIKE I KNOW THE PEOPLE ON HERE IF THAT MAKES SENSE,

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK TONY AS WELL WHO CREATED THIS BOARD AND ALL AT THE BASSEY BLOG FOR DOING SUCH GREAT WORK WHICH THEY HAVE DONE FOR MANY YEARS,

LAST OF ALL MAY I WISH YOU DAME SHIRLEY THE BEST CHRISTMAS POSSIBLE AND THANK YOU FOR TOUCHING ALL OF OUR HEARTS WITH YOUR MUSIC,

I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST DAME SHIRLEY FOR 2021 UNDER COVID-19 AND TO EVERYONE ON HERE AND I LOOK FORWARD TO KEEP READING THE POSTINGS AND MOST OF ALL LISTENING TO YOUR MUSIC DAME SHIRLEY,

LOVE TO YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS HOWARD XXX

ENJOY THE LINK XX
