Happy Birthday!

Thank you! Bearian (talk) 00:56, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merry Merry

Happy Christmas!
Hello Bearian,
Early in A Child's Christmas in Wales the young Dylan and his friend Jim Prothero witness smoke pouring from Jim's home. After the conflagration has been extinguished Dylan writes that

Nobody could have had a noisier Christmas Eve. And when the firemen turned off the hose and were standing in the wet, smoky room, Jim's Aunt, Miss. Prothero, came downstairs and peered in at them. Jim and I waited, very quietly, to hear what she would say to them. She said the right thing, always. She looked at the three tall firemen in their shining helmets, standing among the smoke and cinders and dissolving snowballs, and she said, "Would you like anything to read?"

My thanks to you for your efforts to keep the 'pedia readable in case the firemen chose one of our articles :-) Best wishes to you and yours and happy editing in 2019. MarnetteD|Talk 08:03, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. Merry Xmas! Bearian (talk) 00:58, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Doctor Care Anywhere

I'd like to try and resurrect this article, which was deleted in June 2017. There seem to have been significant developments. At the time you asked to be pinged if that should happen. I dont know how to access what was deleted, and I'm hoping you can help. Rathfelder (talk) 19:53, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rathfelder, I'm extraordinarily busy this holiday season. Please, can I get back to you after 2 January 2020? Bearian (talk) 18:00, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Rathfelder, thank you for your patience while I was away from my desk for holiday/vacation. I am no longer an admin. Can you go to Wikipedia:Drafts? 17:54, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
