MESSAGES: WELCOME, NOTIFICATIONS AND URGENT

all the best for your husband und sixpence (at first i wrote "sixpack", hihi )

Hi all!!

It's so nice to be back!! I've been away for almost 3 years I think, getting married & having a baby. I'll post more later. Thanks Mary for the intro, heheheh!!

I gotta figure out how to upload an avatar and make a new banner. Sorry to say that I had to delete all my Papa pics before I moved out of my parents house. (I didn't want to have my brother find them!! I'd never hear the end of it!!! )

So if I heard correctly, Papa will being going to Fatima in May? Ohh I wish I could go, it's around my birthday. What would be cooler than spending your birthday in Fatima with our beloved Holy Father?
Sadly, my DH can't take the time off of work, so it's just a pleasant little dream of mine.

Hi Bood,

Welcome back. Congratulations on the husband and baby. Good things have certainly been happening in your life since your last post!

BOOD!!! Good to see you posting again!

Welcome back Bood! So pleased to hear you are now a mother! All the very best to you and your family xxxxx

Would-be members

I have noticed several people logged in to our forum recently who have not officially registered but perhaps would like to. The procedure for doing so was written up by Teresa on p. 2 of the forum. (Look just below the News about Benedict thread on the extreme right where there are three pages indicated.) Click on p. 2. At the top of that page is the thread called Registration Questions. Click on p. 1 and read Teresa's explanation. I think the procedure is still the same.

Once a person registers, Maryjos or I can check the list of those waiting and can activate your registration if you seem to be a normal human being who doesn't plan to torpedo the forum.

Good luck.

Euronews television channel is today running the story about the US law suit against the pope, spiced up with the latest scandal, the resignation of Belgian bishop of Brugge who admitted to sexual abuse of a boy. The channel is also running a poll: "Does the Pope bear some personal responsibility for the sex abuse scandal?"

It takes two seconds to vote. Here is the link:

Tx. I just voted. What a joke!

Thanks Crotchet and Cowgirl. I've just voted.

This whole business has become like a nightmare that you simply can't wake up from. I worry for our beloved Papa.

Hi Mary, I got your message. Please check your FFz email.

I've noticed that the message that I have ffz mail has not flashed on my screen for a long time, so I think that facility may have been disabled. Please check for ffz mail frequently, as I know some people have mail waiting for them.

As moderators benefan and I CANNOT read your private mail. I'd like to stress that. But benefan has sent mail which doesn't appear to have been opened.

Help to keep our forum going!!!!! Think of our marvellous Papa Benedetto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to let you know that Linda is again having trouble logging in here. She has a new email address, but I don't think that's the cause of it. I've suggested that she tries a slightly different name and password and then I'll "let her in". So, if you wonder why she hasn't posted, that's the reason. She is well and has the kittens with her.

PapaBear,

Try posting something. I think I just officially admitted you to the forum. Hopefully, I did it right.

Phew! Breathe again! Simone has just sent me the photo and Nan has written that she posted it on the Good Morning thread. Thanks to you both! Mary
