Hey Michael,

Keith Bates mentioned that you had quite a bit of interaction with Pete Horobin

So I have a couple of questions regarding namesakes, forsaken names, pseudo names. Can you tell me if Peter Haining and Pete Horobin are one and the same person? And DJ at FOMT...that would be David (Johnson?) And what does FOMT connote?

Hi to Hazel.

Crack

PS Where did Eric Finlay's archive go? 

Michael,

Well, I couldn't contact you on this I.U.O.M.A. without befriending you again

and wanting to get your email, phone number and address so that my two daughters, Gwyn (18) and Lauryn (21) could contact you while they're in London.

Great kids, they're artists...what else would they be other than crackerjack's kids?

Anyway, they landed in Iceland just an hour ago, will stay there overnight and

leave for London around 4:00 PM Icelandic time, whatever that is? They'll be 4 days in London and then off to Woof it for three weeks on an organic farm in Wales, not far from relatives. They'll be in Europe for nine weeks! France and Italy are on their itinerary. They are independent and didn't want Dad to come along!

Not much notice here, I realize, but I couldn't send them without mentioning you

and Hazel. You see, there are stories that you know about....Correspondence Novels and whatnot, that is....how you and Hazel were part of the characters and plots. I would have mentioned they visit Jarvis and Nahpro and Mark, but its been years I was in touch with them. Not that I wouldn't want to be again. 

OK, be well. Love visiting your website. What work!

Cheerssss,

Cracker

Perils with Paulin but here came

another odd thing , the email was addressed to my old address which I do not use for mail art and you normally write to my nottwo.ma@yahoo.co.uk

I think?

Hi Michael I received a very strange email from your account that directed me to a seeminly inocuous ad but on trying to close the ad a requester told me to click OK which of course I did not do. Instead I went to task manager and closed the whole lot. It did not seem to be the kind of thing that would come from you and it possible was going to put a virus or malware in my machine. I think your email address has been highjacked. Has any other of your friends contacted you? there was a long list of names some of which I recognized as mail artists.  May be it is something you did send after all, but I thought to check, better safe than sorry. Let me know through IUOMA what happened please.

Hi Michael I have been doing a good clean up and found a CD with free software from Which? And it has Serif Page Plus, the DTP program I was telling you about. I use it a lot, for documentations, pdf, books, cards, anything. I can send it to you if you still want it. It is much better than Word.

I am having great fun with Issuu, thank you for passing the tip on. Your latest offering is very nice as are all of them, do you know how much space they give for free?

Love to Hazel and Archie

Oooh! What a lovely photo! I do not think we are going to see snow very soon this year.

Bonjour! I like your 'Grandad' "old-fashioned" collage. Here's one I made of my father, when he was in Burma during his WW2 RAF days.

Regards, Val
