I've have just re-joined after a lapse of time (and change of name was Horton before my husband changed his name). I rarely have managed to come to meetings, but have enjoyed reading, and trawling through my mac archives (the ones on my computers go back to 2007..useful when you don't have a wifi connection)
I have had much useful and life-saving advice and handholding over the years, though it's been intermittent ... However, whenever I've needed help, often from the indefatigable Ronni, but also from many others. I know running any web presence takes time and effort and money. I will hope to remember my fees each year form now on!
