Sydders, Amazing With all the stuff on your plate, I didn't even want to breathe on the "Hey Syd - where's the annual poem?" thread. Like Jenny said - didn't think it could top the others and here ya go - WOW. Sure am glad that you found the time - cause this one was just grand. <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" /> Merry Christmas Love Laura

Just echoing everyone else. I also think this is the best you have done - so far - of course there is always next year and the way we are growing you are going to need time to start composing again. Your Christmas poem brings a lot of joy and pleasure to us all - and now its a tradition. I admire you so much for being able to produce the goods. I think also that it is good for us to remember our losses as well as our gains for the year and thanks for that as well.

It wouldn't be the same Christmas without Syd's poem ...
Hope you're getting a good bonus from Bob, Peter.
