Joking aside, 2025 has been an outstanding year for posts. I come back daily to read the articles and contribute when I think appropriate. I certainly don't see any problems here with spelling or grammar.  Our Administrators, John and Tony have been steady and outstanding and the contributions of our members have been first class. Thank you everyone for all your hard interesting efforts. I am proud to be a member of The Diecast Zone. Merry Christmas to you all and may 2026 produce similar efforts to this year. Again, thank you all.

"I certainly don't see any problems here with spelling or grammar."

Thank you, David, for that heartfelt Holiday sentiment; it's reciprocated ten-fold, I'm sure!    However, I often notice grammar mistakes and misspelled or omitted words.   Overall, I'm one of the worst offenders!

I proof-read EVERYTHING I post multiple times - nice & slow - so as NOT to miss a thing.   And EVEN THEN, I'll re-read something from a few days prior and BHAM  THERE IT IS - misspelled or forgotten words! 

My proof-reading skills are poor, at best.   😣 😣 😣

David, your posts are something I look forward to every day. Misspelled or forgotten words are very minimal on the forums and in my case, brought on by my mind thinking ahead of what my fingers are putting down. I too am proud to be a member of the diecast zone and hope that we will continue to see your posts throughout 2026 and beyond. Merry Christmas to you, your family and all of the members of the forums.

Reminds me of my youngest granddaughter at about 8 or 9 years old, who stated that being good was much too difficult and she was looking forward to receiving the coal.
