Cortez did not come over with the forum format change. I had heard that he made an open defiant stance against any changes, but I was not engaged on the forum when the change happened, so that is just what I heard.
Anyone Heard From Jay?

I love to see that this forum has such a personal touch. Since I’m new here I don’t know him but pray he is well.
Maybe he's just been busy with life. I hope that's the case, anyway.
Maybe a lady-friend... bow chicka wow wow.
Here's hoping Jay is safely tearing up the female populace at his new place!
Oh shit. That's rough. Some day he's going to realize life is change and it's a lot worse when someone quits that versus a forum.
Paging Jay! Paging Jay! Your friends are here to meet you at the customer service counter.
me too. Jay's name is Julian Granville-Roland (I am not betraying any confidences or personal info as he has posted the info on the forum). I have googled obituaries all over Cornwall and found nothing. Hoping no news is good news...
The true mark of a forum Great is when you disappear for a while and people make threads asking about you.
I still haven't heard anything from my email, but look forward to calming everyone's nerves when I do.

I also remember Jay mentioning he might be moving, so hopefully he is just busy.
BTW, anyone heard from Morrison Jerimiah? I DM'd him in December and never heard back. Hasn't been on here since last June. He lived in London, near a big park, and had two daughters. Anyone have contact with him? Hope he is well also.

I’ve wondered about him, too.
@Ettrick puffer
@virkia
@RobNYC
have gone missing as well. My mind often fears the worst, especially with the pandemic these last few years.
I’m especially concerned about Jay because we would correspond via PM with some regularity. I suppose if he ended up in a hospital, he might not have computer access. I just hope he’s all right. I hope all of them are all right.
If it's okay to mention others, I haven't seen @Chaukisch in a while, either. He didn't sound to be in a great place in his last few posts. Hope he's hanging in there...
I remember awhile back that @halfdan feared he had taken his own life.
@TheIronMonkey Yes I did and @UB 40 says he's tried to contact him but no response. @Chaukisch was making me a special "Clay King" clay pipe baccy with Sweet Gold Lemon Virginia / Sweet Black Cavendish soaked in Viking Mead. It sounds delicious - all gone to waste now...
still nothing from our chum Jay...
Hello guys, I just read this thread and am more than moved that so many folk care about someone they have never actually met.
I have not been ignoring e-mails, my address has changed and not been updated on the Forum.....will do that on the morrow.
The reason for my absence is basically I just have been feeling so sick that I just didn't feel like being sociable.
The reason for feeling thus is that 2 of my sisters are scheming to swiz me out of a good portion of my share of our late Mother's legacy. The cost to fight them will be significant (even though the will is crystal clear in its form)....and they know that. This has totally buggered up my plans to move to Lincolnshire (if all had gone as it should have, I'd likely be moved already) so I'm still here in sunny Cornwall.
If anyone has experienced this kind of thing then they will understand how sick I feel.
I don't know what my next move is going to be but it's certainly going to involve speaking to an expensive lawyer at some point which I don't relish.
I see I have no fewer than 19 notifications so will work my way through those over the next couple of days, also read some threads to fill myself in on what's been going on in this crazy world we live in.
Again, thanks so much for the kind words and thoughts, they have given me a much needed lift.
Regards,
Jay.

Nothing breaks up family like money (or a crazy spouse).
Probate litigation is protracted and expensive, without any winners. You never know a person until in a courtroom.
Best of luck. Keep your head up and remember, we care.
