After a while, I'll take some days off, I'll be out for week or so. Since monday 21, so it'll be slow or no answers at all

I don't know what has happened with Barrett.  He posted a lot of puzzles and now seems to have dropped out.
Can I suggest that an Admin move all his puzzles to the Pros' section.  If certain of an answer, a pro can then either solve the puzzle or adopt it and ask an Admin to move it back to the Rookies to be treated like a new puzzle and moved progressively up the groups.

A PM was sent some weeks ago. No reply has been received. (This is sounding more and more like Neville Chamberlain.....).

I believe that the editors will make a joint decision in the near future.

I'm away from my notes for few days. I may not be able to answer some questions.

I am presently not in the best of health. I apologise for slow answers and my inability to provide new puzzles and service my existing ones.

Hopefully things will improve within a few weeks. I will be signing in most days but concentration levels are low. Be good.

Tomorrow I will be starting my summer vacation. No new puzzles and probably only slow answers for the next two weeks.

I'm moving on Saturday. Unfortunately the coronavirus means IT engineers are swamped with work. I'm hoping the switch in broadband will go smoothly but if I'm not online now you know why.

I don't have many puzzles anyway!

12 months ago. It was a temporary rental to get me closer to family because of my health issues. Now it's something hopefully more permanent. Much nicer and larger apartment WITH A LIFT!  ;D

To add to my problems, next week I am living elsewhere to dog-sit my daughter's very exuberant Golden Irish. She is off to Illyria with the pleasant prospect of quarantine when she returns.

I will have access to the internet but little chance of spending much time on it - the dog is full of the joys of life.

I've been slow answering for quite a long time.
I'm planning to be fully back now. I had to take a looooong break from AP because it was extremely time consuming...but it's still the best place to be.
Each time I tried to get back, I had to face 100, then 120 and today 132 PAGES of unread topics.
I am slowly catching up but I'm afraid I will do some reposts before that.
The bright side is that I have an amount of new stuff to keep you busy a long time!

Is there a way to find the "all unread posts" again? I had to format my PC and lost that precious saved link :/

I have just attended the Goodwood Revival and had the good fortune to meet Djetset who of course was as busy as usual, but he found time to enjoy coffee and sparkling repartee. He has been absent from this site for nearly 12 months now but he has very valid reasons! It is his intention to return to full-time attendance in due course but this could well be next year rather than next month.

Any questions on his existing puzzles will not be answered for some time. Please be patient.

BERTRAND has today mentioned in a reply that he will be away for a week. He has an awful lot of puzzles so we'll have to be patient.
