Oh that's a long wait! And sounds horrid. I wish I had a magic wand for you or better still knowledge that was useful! Sending love and hugs xx

Thanks for your kind words. And osteoarthritis is so horrible and I'm so sad you have it. I hope you find some relief from it dear friend. xxx

If you would, that'd be great! You could create a post asking who is there and then I could share it, perhaps. It does seem very tricky to do (which is why I've hesitated) but maybe asking for suggested people is the way?

Sorry for the long delay... I've been ill. I looked you up and found lovely poems! But I think you live in Portugal and the lists only include people based in the UK, sadly (had to draw some kind of line). One of these days I might do a diaspora list but busy atm.

Thanks so much dear Julian. Nasty bug but on the mend (hopefully my immune system will improve when the damp issue is resolved too). Hope you're keeping well? xxx

That made me laugh out loud! I'm so happy to get in... it's several years since I had an acceptance there.

Thanks... that's very kind of you. I will be going back through my notifications over the next few days to add any new people I've missed, too.

Thanks so much Noel. I've been having a break as I've just moved house but will be back to it all next week. 😊

If you click on it, there should be a pin icon at the top on the right. So just click that and then it will appear on your home page along the top so you can switch between feeds. bsky.app/profile/luke...
