Congratulations HCA Banjo Man

.

25 K Bluegrass Fan

.

I feel a sense of pride in the great achievements of Banjo man , not that I had

anything to do with it, indeed I was rather skeptical of him , or as I thought then

her. But when H C A student offered his services to post the' image of the day'

I have to admit that I had my doubts that he could stand the pace , but I agreed

with the ' mod squad' and we gave our consent . And how glad are we! He has

been a giant here in posting the 'image' everyday , and believe me folks it is one

of the hardest time consuming attention soaking thankless tasks on SD , and he

does it with relish , panache and great good humour. There have been a few stalwarts

before him including the legendary " Plinky plonky Jenn" , but I am sure that she would

agree with me and say ,' thanks mate you are a "Legend" .

Thanks mate for all your great comments , helpful hints and the well mannered way

that you have tackled everything on SD, you are a very welcome member .Bien hecho

Banjo man sure is an ' anciano'

You've done it again mate....outstanding job. I love your depiction of Canada...empty! Well done mi amigo! - 007c5fc1, Aug 7, 2014

Maggy May, I wondered why they bothered to put Canada there if they were not going to show the Provinces. - ray76, Aug 7, 2014

@Ray...I think it's because Canadians are always bending over and we're so short in this aquiescent position, they miss us on the radar. - 007c5fc1, Aug 7, 2014

Quiescent position! is that what the young are calling it nowadays , I am out of the loop again. - ray76, Aug 7, 2014

No no dear...I just forgot the 'c'...see acquiescent...'tending to accept or allow what other people demand'..."You owe more tax" sayeth the govt....yes sir, we'll bend over and you can s***w us again! - 007c5fc1, Aug 8, 2014

Gorgeous post, sir. - katydew, Aug 8, 2014

Answer 1

Wow... what an incredible way to start the day!

I cannot thank everyone enough for all the kindness and graciousness that they have shown me. I need to thank the Moderators especially, who had the ability to be rid of me, but chose instead to put up with me until I (hopefully) made something of myself.

Many, many thanks you all! And thank you Ray, for such an incredible post! Here's a special song for you!

That really is incredible , they are hard to get to play the banjo they prefer the trumpet. - ray76, Aug 7, 2014
