Whatever beliefs you have, merry New Year! We all mark that with new calendars, whether we like it or not! Regards, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 14:14, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
Thanks and a belated happy new year to you! Unfortunately I spent most of the festive season in bed ill so I've not had chance to log on for a while. It's good to be back and to start catching up on what I've missed! - Dumelow (talk) 14:03, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey, if you have a moment, I wondered if you might have any more luck than I've had in digging up more information on this chap. He was a royal engineer and a FICE so I thought it might be up your street. Perhaps the ICE has a biography of him somewhere? All the best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:33, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Harry, glad to hear from you again. As you might have noticed my contributions have been few and far between this year - things have been very busy for me at work. I do try to drop in every now and then and have a play. I couldn't dig anything out of the ICE library except a report on the groundnut scheme authored by him (that I couldn't view), but I have added some further info on his military career from the Gazettes. I will see if I can find anything from some other sources later this weekend. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 19:14, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

Highlighted at the bottom of "References" is an invalid cite error tag; 'name "ryan" defined multiple times with different content'. Possibly arising from your recent (welcome) edits. I'm sure it can be patched up easily, but it fails me. Greets Osioni (talk) 17:16, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
