Hail, King Richard!

It is wonderful to see you here at Playmofriends - I am so glad to have the chance to rekindle an old friendship!  (If Psyche's remark about money doesn't raise some eyebrows, maybe this will!   ;) :lol: )  Don't worry - I will be discreet.   :-X

OMG ... :-[

WOW ... :o

An incredible welcome ... Thank you everyone.

In time, I hope to thank each of you individually for making me feel so welcome here.

For now, I would like to just respond to David's request to fully "expose" myself ...

Hello, Meg ...

I love both VI's ... The Virgin Islands and Vancouver Island. In many ways they are somewhat similar. Friendly happy people, beautiiful scenery, magnificent water and clean air. The biggest difference is one VI has pine trees and the other VI has palm trees ... ;)

St. Thomas is a little bit more convenient than St.John. However, we have lived on both islands and love them equally. Vancouver Island is very large and has all the amenities of mainland living.

I could go on here forever, but after all this is a Playmobil fansite ... :)

Thanks for showing me your avatar.

You are very welcome. I'm pleased that's all the '"exposing" that has been requested ... ;)

All the best,
Richard

Vancouver Island is lovely! We were on Orcas Island (in the San Juans) for a short vacation in October and it was beautiful in the Fall.  I've been to the British Virgin Islands and to Antiqua but never to the U.S. VI.  It sounds like you travel a good deal...you'll have to share your adventures. :)

Hello, Diana ...

I would love to share my "adventures" ... But, is that permitted here in the "welcome" forum?

Later, when I finally get a bit settled everywhere, I'll be able to include little Klickys in my adventures. But, for now, most are still in their shipping cartons, waiting patiently, at our home (which we are renovating) on Vancouver Island.

We are also totally renovating our home in the Virgin Islands (which should take a year or so to finish). Hopefully, our home on Vancouver Island will be finished sometime in May when we return to Canada. In the meantime, we're travelling back and forth between our condos in Fort Lauderdale and St. Thomas. Great fun ... :)

Please let me know what the "rules" are here at Playmofriends, as I want to be a "law abiding" member ... ;)

All the best,
Richard

Hi there, Richard!

I have to agree with everyone else, your avatar looks great. That shield is one of my favorites.
