Anybody heard from HP lately?

[Bramblethorn]

Handley_Page hasn't posted since last May. Does anybody have news of him? Hoping he's well, but it's a long time for him to be absent.

I thought she was a woman, living in Britain. Handley Page was the name of a British aircraft company that built planes, mainly bombers, in both world wars. I did once ask her about that because I recognized the name of the company. That is about the only thing I know about her, and I don't know where she is now. She hasn't posted any stories in the last five years.

HP is definitely an English chap, getting on in years. He'd coined his moniker after the bomber, as you say. I suspect he may have slipped out quietly.

He's now posting as HandleyPage, most recently this past Monday in the coffee shop and reading room. There was a problem getting into the old account due to a computer crash, and the most expeditious solution was a new account, as of October.

He certainly isn't as active as he was, but yes, he's back under a slightly different name above.

Phew! Guess I should stop by those threads more often.

Yeah. It's where the cool kids hang.

I checked in with him today. He’s good.

It’s a busy week, I can’t see him slipping away quietly.

 

[Tio_Narratore]

HP wouldn't be one to go quietly anywhere, especially not if there were women around to admire.

Or dragons

Norman stayed by his side while he was ill, and will keep him roaring now.

 

[Noor]

I check on him every week or two, more some times. He’s doing much better.

Please tell him there are people here thinking of him.

Handley is a guy.

Yes, I was corrected up there on Post #3, January 4th.

A guy who is into planes
He’s still writing. Unfortunately, he was really ill last year and although he’s much better, recovery is taking a long time.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Tell him I am still feeding the dragon in the basement.

 

[Noor]

From Hp today
Thank you very much for your kind wishes
I’m improving slowly and I will be back as soon as I can.

 

[Noor]

I just talked to hp and read him your messages.
He sent me an email yesterday and tried to call so there is definitely progress.
He has come along long way from when he got out of hospital over a year ago, and it may take some more time, but he’s tough.

Radios, too, and, very much so, women. I once saw his eyes pop out as a shapely woman in a skin-tight orange dress walked by him in a train station a few years ago.

Really? I’ll have to ask him about that ; )
Yep on radios.

Yes, he and I have had a few discussions of radios.

 

[Rustyoznail]

@Duleigh is also a HAM, and had discussed radios with HP.
