I'm sorry it took me so long to notice this thread!

Thank you to everyone in the group. You are such an interesting, diverse bunch and have certainly enriched my life and of course my Spanish.

Looking forward to many more years of Word of the Day.

Saludos, Mark

Oy my, delivered to wrong adress mate it was New England not New Zealand.

Chuckles aside we never really know each other too well on SD but I do know

that M and I have much in common-our love of languages naturally, music, art ,

literature , geography , anthropology and caring for good manners and our

members, these interests have been evident over the years as has his hard

work for members here on SD. He has always been in demand for a comment

and a correction or three. We have been enriched and privileged by his

Presence .Thank you again M for being the stalwart fellow that you are.

You are indeed a legend and a great member .Bien hecho leyendo

I have that Norman Rockwell on the wall behind one of my pianos. Classic! - mstivers, Mar 30, 2017
The piano picture reminds me of WARPS.. the West Australia Ruined Piano Society. Google it. - mstivers, Mar 30, 2017

I would like to shout out a big "Muchísimas Gracias"to "M" for all he does to "fine tune" our Spanish. He has become a "key" person around SD. His contributions help to diminish the "heterodyning" that can occur when things get a little "out of tune" So just keep your tuning hammer handy for proper tweaking so that our heart "strings" will always sing together in harmony!

¡Enhorabuena!

Congrats on reaching 100 in rep. Not an easy task. Your Spanish is very good and rarely needs correction. I've learned a lot from you over these many years. And what many may not know is that you have many other talents. Tuning pianos and your work with comic strips. Very happy to have you here at SD. Thank you for your continued participation. smile

That is gaffer's tape. It is used by theatre, film, and television technicians to hold things down temporarily. It is like duct tape except it doesn't leave glue behind when you pull it off. I always have some with me when I play music - mstivers, Mar 30, 2017

I'm always lurking, Ray. I'm re-doing Fluencia at the moment. I was up to Level 5, Unit 1 and realized I'd forgotten too many chunks of information I'd probably hurried through. :) - Findy, Mar 24, 2017
