This being my very first posting and a "VERY" rare piece, thought I'd bring back to the top,
Thank You Sean for looking and showing the love, very appreciated!!
Thank you George for showing the loves!!
Kerry, can I ask you something. How do you know that I have clicked the 'Love' button on an item you posted 2 years ago? Do you need to check your individual postings for this (which is very time consuming)? CW only e mail me on comments made but not on Love/Like clicks. Thanks.
George, I try to go through the "All Activities" pages at least once a day( back to when I was last on), and quickly browse to see if any of mine have been brought back to the top, doesn't take but a couple minutes. Then respond to any. From there I hit "lastest post" to see what has been posted today and comment from there.
Thanks DinoMan for stopping by and showing the loves.
Thank you Michael for taking the time to look and share the love!!
Thank you Dave for stopping in and leaving the love!!
