A thank you to all you cigar folks

There is one thing I can always count on when I log in here. You guys allways make me laugh - and some days I really need that.

I too thank you all for being here, it is a great place to be, and the people here are simply first rate. We get to have a little fun, and get to give each other a bit of a hard time sometimes, be we all know it is just good fun, and it always stays that way.

I also want to wish everyone here a very merry Christmas and a very healthy and prosperous new year that is all you expect!!

Same to you Gordon. I forgot in my post to wish everybody a Merry Christmas and a happy New year. I though about this at work today and came to the conclusion that I am one of the more fortunate people on the face of the earth. This is my second clean and sober Christmas, I have put behind me 20 years of absolutely self destructive behaviour, made some lasting friendships in AA, made amends with my family and have become a member here and been welcomed warmly.

Amazing, truly amazing. Gods grace is a wonderful thing.

Merry Christmas everybody and a Happy New Year. Be safe.
