About Fred

Very nice.

Thank you for the update, his wealth of knowledge is sorely missed :)

That’s good to hear - thank you!

Hooray! Thanks for the update.

steven,

Thanks for the update and it's nice to hear that Fred is keeping well. Perhaps you could mention to him that he's missed on the forum.

Hopefully we will hear soon from Chris F. and a few others that have been absent lately.

Good old Fred. I miss my language and history lessons.

thanks for the update steven

I am SO glad to hear he is well.

Thank you Steven!

Hurrah! Good news and any good news is most welcome in these strange dark times!

Thank you for the update

Thank you, steven. Tell Fred we miss him.

Oh so good to hear this! His words of wisdom and sense of humor are missed.

Respecting his privacy.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your kind messages, everyone.

The Mrs and I are fine since the lock-down has been in effect in SF, just coping and staying healthy especially as members of the 65+ age group, wearing the mask when outside, studying, reading, keeping up with all the depressing and horrific news, etc, etc. etc.

Obviously, no traveling this year, that's shot for sure. Wear the mask, stay healthy !

Good to hear from you, Fred. I always enjoy your posts and admire your vast store of historical knowledge!

Fred! Welcome back!

...vast store of historical knowledge!

Agreed! I don’t know how he does it. I read books and the occasional academic paper on historical events and I can’t remember the vast amount of details and minutae, but with Fred, it just seems to roll right off the keyboard. I have no idea how that happens.

And yes, it's very good to hear he is waiting it out at home.

So glad you’re doing well Fred!

Thank you steven!

glad to see you back, Fred!!!

Maybe one month you'll pop into the International meet-up organised by Andrea

Good to hear you are well Fred!

It's not too late for Fred, or anyone else, to join in on this Sundays meeting. People just need to PM me with their email address and I will send them the link.

I'm happy to hear all is well with you, Fred.

Nice to see your post Fred and know you are staying safe and healthy.

Thanks again everyone,... very much appreciated under these trying circumstances.

@ James...thanks for your concern, you stay safe and healthy in Texas given the dire situation there right now.

@ Steven....Something here that might perk your music interest if you're interested in Saxony and Prussia. instrumental music....www.museumsshop-im-schoss.de.

There are 4 CDs in the series. The accompanying texts are in German and English...very informative both historically and n the realm of music.
