A very belated welcome to Lsqp, Logan Mews, rennsage, ljm, Shananana, GwenMezroe, and Selkie….apologies to anyone I might have missed!

The book discussion group sounds like great fun. For those who are interested in the Evans/Minns book “This Was the Real Life”, you can read several pages of it on Google Books. This might give you an idea if you want it. I thought it looked interesting.

Lots of good reading to catch up on this morning!!

Game of Thrones or royal baby watch- would Freddie have been into the hype of these weekend events??

Also just as exciting- Villiers posted her story about Freddie's parents on her YouTube channel!

Besides tax weekend here- it's also national record store day- going to see if there are any Queen treasures to be found

emedee I hope you find some good treasures :)

I pre-ordered a set of 5 Queen Funko-Pop dolls last November (The 4 Queen members + an extra Freddie). They were very reasonably priced and supposed to be available in January. Unfortunately, I did not do my homework…have since read that the company I ordered from is notorious for delays. At this point, I have NO idea when they will be sent. Some Freddy Mercury/Queen loving scientist in Antarctica will probably get his Funko-Pop doll order through Amazon delivered by snow-mobile before I get mine!

Thor...do you have anything displayed in your home that is a Freddie reminder...a gift from him or some other memento from the Queen tours? I collect thimbles. I have a display case on the wall of over 150 thimbles...mostly from places I have visited over they years. Much to my surprise, I found a Freddie thimble on eBay (Barcelona dark suit picture). It is now proudly displayed with all the others.

Geez guys,

I thought I was very understanding and careful about pointing out to CHEVY the increased ease of reading with punctuation. In NO way did I put CHEVYMAN down.
From what I have learned about her over the last month, I just assumed that she was unable to manually type due to the neurological effects of her bad reactions to a flu shot which she confided in us by telling us about this problem.
Please let's not forget that I was a Physical Rehabilitation RN for thirty-two year. I know quite a bit about physical limitations and adaptive techniques to partially overcome them.

So, if I made CHEVYMAN feel badly about her writing skill limits, it was not intentional. I would NEVER do that. I thought she was using voice-activated typing and I was trying to suggest something that might have helped. I was certainly not mocking her. Can we please stop with this issue now? I completely apologize for any misunderstanding of my true intentions.

Thor sometimes things don't always come across well in written form. My other half is notorious for this .

Not another word on the matter and I understand you meant no harm.

Hope you are ok

Thor, I'm a newbie here (previously just a lurker :-) but just wanted to chime in to say I understood completely what you were saying in your post to Chevyman and I could see you were just trying to be helpful and weren't trying to put her down.

It's so hard sometimes to get meanings and intentions across clearly in forum posts and people sometimes take things in ways not intended.

It's clear from everything you've written here that you're a kind person and would not intentionally try to belittle someone.

Villiers, I just listened to your YouTube piece on Freddie's parents. So enjoyable! You have a real talent for sharing info. Quick Question: When you do your Live with Thor and Lee, will we be able to see them or will it be strictly audio? I ask because I think several people said they were able to see the guys when you did your test with them.
