<p>[QUOTE="Andrew McCabe, post: 3122573, member: 90666"]Thanks Nick, also to Jay. I don't expect to be posting much but will lurk so I can reply from time to time. I've also resumed service on a couple of other forums. There's two reasons I've switched off for over a year. One is that on matters where I and others have a expertise, we've taken to often messaging directly. I/we got discouraged by repeatedly crafting long, educational and interesting posts full of lots of illustrations and getting no meaningful numismatic responses other than "nice coin". One day after a meaningless response to a great post that took a lot of work, I bailed (on forums in general). The second reason is I've been working on a non coin book for much of the last year which has just been published, to be precise this: <a href="http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/8565577-the-art-of-robert-costelloe" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/8565577-the-art-of-robert-costelloe" rel="nofollow">http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/8565577-the-art-of-robert-costelloe</a> (in my mum's name but effectively a joint effort). Some pics below. Far distance from numismatics. I'm putting my toe back into forums in general but very gently. Am working on numismatic stuff again now too. That helps. The last pic is of the main author of the book shown below, a few weeks ago in the casino at Biarritz.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
