Welcomes (to Neighbourly Northwood)
As you might know, I have just recently returned as Northwood Lead. During my last stint as Lead I always made sure I welcomed each and every person who joined us in Northwood. I don't believe there was any Lead welcoming new members during my absence so I have made a point of going back as far as possible to rectify that.
It has lead to some very dismayed replies, (and a couple of irate ones) reminding me that some of the people I am welcoming have been members for 'ages". Sorry about that, I was only trying to make sure you didn't feel missed out.
So, instead of causing more irate replies, I just want to say 'welcome' to all new members who have not been welcomed by me personally. It is great to have you with us. We appreciate your support.
