Thank you for sharing your ideas and your lives with us. We are richer because of your generosity.

To paid subscribers, the fact that you believe in FFOREST so much you are willing to put money into it is inspiring and a little frightening. Skyler and I will do our utmost to live up to your faith in us. Thank you also for your patience with us as we try to get the archives sorted and my book published. As soon as I can wrestle the ebook version into submission, you’ll be getting your paper copy.

To the commenters, you are helping to write FFOREST too! Thank you for taking time to respond to our writing and talk to the FFOREST folk. We love your comments (even though I usually take too long to comment back.)

To you, the subscriber, thank you for opening your eyes and mind to FFOREST. Thank you for reading and thinking and growing slowly every day. You are the reason I write.

Biggest thanks of all to Christine for believing in me, for reading all my posts before they go out and for being incredibly patient all the times this year that TREE has eaten into our time. I love you!

‘Right. Who’s the joker that put motor oil in my bubble pipe?’

That’s Year 3 done.

I’ll be back in your inbox/Substack app on Monday 4 September with a brand new series called Lawrence vs Jeff.

Happy weekend
Jeff
