    Exclamation Still Breathing!

    Greetings fellow XMarkers!

    I know its been a spell since my last visit (Christmas Day of 2012 to be exact) -- thought I'd stop by to dispel any rumors that I had given up the ghost and had gone to Valhalla!

    As before I've been very busy with my school studies and just hadn't had time to keep up with the goings on on the internet (I've got some recent news regarding school that deserves to go into the Celebration Zone). I'm currently on summer break until early September and look forward to catching up with my old friends (& maybe making a few new ones).

    I hope all is well with everyone & wish you all the very best.

    Cheers!

    And your physical health is as good as your mental, Terry? Welcome back; I'm not the only one who has missed you, I'm sure.

    Ha!Ha! Not so sure about the mental sometimes Rex but all things considered, other than the wear & tear that comes with age I'm doing pretty well health-wise. Thanks for asking.

    Call the undertaker. Tell him to sew that suit back up and put it in the closet. ;)

    Greetings Terry and welcome back. Still breathing... glad you've come up for air. I look forward to your contributions, bold as they might be.

    Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.
