Hello everyone,
I rarely post anymore due to continuing health problems and other obligations. I am still active in the hobby, rest assured. I tend to visit the Facebook edition of this site more often as it tends to be my social platform. Currently, I'm restoring a Kodak Pageant 250E 16 mm projector and a Canon S-2 Dual 8mm projector. Not many film purchases of late, but there's still plenty of films on the shelves waiting to be viewed!

Health and family come first! Always good to see you, Doug!

As Eivind said health and family first.I too have been absent for long periods but one has to remember hopefully the site is always here to return to as and when.
Most if not all of us lead busy lives these days and it seems there is not enough hours in the day to do everything.
Good tosee you Doug.

Nice to hear from you Douglas and the forums will always be there regardless of whatever else takes precedence in everyone's lives.
This is only a hobby or a social pastime after all.
Family comes first, always.

Take care mate.

Good to hear from you Doug! Sorry you couldn't make it to Cinevent, was looking forward to meeting you in person!

I too have been busy, and also have a stack of stuff to watch when I can get caught up. Hope your health gets better soon, as we get older it sometimes seems like our bodies don't want to cooperate with our minds!

Thanks everyone for your kind comments! Michael: I'll be at Steve Osborne's outdoor film show in the Fall in Kettering, OH. If you can make it to that it would be great, as a lot of film collectors and fans will be there.
