Hello Lowlanders'
Long time , no list., sorry about that.
 I am super duper busy latetly but still try to always read my favourite
emails (Lowlands). Please try to list in english also as we are not all as
gifted as all you folks on the list and we do need to make the list as
accesible as possible. I know this is a hassle but folk such as Johnny M etc
do a fantastic job in including us all in his enlightening mails and
including us in the Lowlands familia. Some languages as Scots, Lowlands and
Limburgs are easy to follow for me but other stuff including modern Dutch
ate a little more difficult. I do not wish to put a damper on your listings
as I realise we all have language we are more comfortable in writing in but
even a poor attempt in english is hundreds of percent appreciated than no
attempt at all. I hope I have not offended any one on this list as I super
value the listings of all people in all languages and use the various
languages as practice in reading. There is not much opportunity in now in
Australia for practice as the generations of immigrants are now dying out.
My own mother is 83 years old and although good compis mentis there are not
many people of her generation left unfortunately who we can ask for
reference.
