I do.
I write a 'Ramblings From Rahotu' every month.
It started when Rosie's cousin from Scotland came to visit about twenty years back, and said for us to keep in contact.
I've always kept a diary, so sent her a copy every month.
She, in turn, sent it to her sister. who demanded her own copy.
Then my family got involved...then She's extended family...then my extended family...and it just escalated from there.
I don't know now exactly how many get it now; but it's a fair number.
All good I suppose.
It's even printed off and read to the Kumback Coffee Club girls at the Kumback Café in Perry OK.
I know that 'cos I got yelled at when we visited this time around, because somehow they didn't get the July 2015 one.
And thanks for the nice comment.Last edited by johnboy; 10-02-2015 at 01:32 AM.

Ah.........the burdens of fame..............Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Crikey Uncle Bob, you're mellowing!
At one time I would've expected: Ah...the burdens of infamy...
