"Pris, you know the bloody rules; quit trying to abuse them"
Just one SMALL point Michael since you seem to come rather late to the discussion: In what way EXACTLY did my asking for a pilgrim or pilgrim (whether on the road at Christmas or otherwise) to take advantage of my absence by coming to stay at The Little Fox House - to care for my cats and allow me to see my family - "abuse the bloody rules"? The post was removed in a fit of pique by Ivar who didn´t even read it, so clouded is the judgement against me for "advertising my business". I have offered now to three members, who have objected in like manner and who live close by, to come and see for themselves what I am trying to do here. Two did not even have the decency to reply. The other is "too busy". I am an hour and a quarter from Santiago.
Since the thread in question was removed I felt I had the right to know why. I posted here accordingly. That thread has now been locked. I challenge anyone to find anything there which says that rules were broken...unless that means the hornet´s nest it did stir up from those many members who were as bemused as I was as its locking.
I had no other choice but to post my thanksto all here as I have found someone who will be enjoying a wonderful Christmas (with his mother whom he hasn´t seen for months: the flight is a Christmas present to her) here at The little Fox. Now I can leave in peace.

Yes, I know.
Happy Christmas, everyone.
PS: Chapter closed I hope. The above questions are actually rhetorical, MichaelB.
By all means, lock this thread now...
