Still no news?  We're getting concerned here...  hope all is ok, Ken.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: Paulines7 on May 24, 2008, 09:10:35
I too am getting concerned as it is 6 weeks since Ken has been on here.  He lives near Antwerp so it won't be easy to discover how he is doing.  The website shown on his profile is not working.  I wish there was something we could do to find out what has happened to him.  It is very worrying.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: asbean on May 24, 2008, 11:11:04
We could send a pm which would show up in his email inbox  ??? ??? ??? ???
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: Paulines7 on May 24, 2008, 23:45:20
We could send a pm which would show up in his email inbox  ??? ??? ??? ???

I think if Ken was able to read his emails he would most certainly log into A4A.   
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: betula on May 24, 2008, 23:53:11
I have missed Ken.Maybe Dan could let us know how he is if that is not invading his privacy??
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: Gardengirl on June 10, 2008, 22:40:30
Not looking good for poor Ken.  Hope it's nothing serious.  I suppose as Dan hasn't replied there is no way of knowing.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew

Wishing you well Ken, you were so kind and helpful when I first joined A4A.

Surely as Ken is a moderator Dan will have had some sort of notificaton as to Kens health etc. ?

Hope all is ok, and look forward to your return Ken.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: star on June 14, 2008, 20:18:32
Im sure you are right GW, but without Kens permission Dan can't break a confidence. (That's if he knows anything of course)

But we can between us keep this at the top.

Still thinking of you Ken ;)

I'm sure Dan would let us know if he could.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: debster on June 19, 2008, 14:28:21
funny that i sent Dan a message a day or two ago, he was on line at the time but ive had no answer do you reckon his mail system is working?
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: Paulines7 on June 19, 2008, 20:02:47
I hope Dan doesn't mind if I tell you that I had an email from him on 16th June in response to my asking him if he knew anything about Ken. 

He doesn't know any more than we do and is considering what to do.   He is as concerned about Ken as we all are.  I imagine Dan has been inundated with emails over the situation and that might be why he hasn't replied to them all.   

Let us hope no news is good news.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: Gardengirl on June 19, 2008, 21:35:10
I'm sure Dan wont mind Pauline.  Many thanks for letting us all know. Let's  hope we have some good news soon.

I think Dan will be fine with your post Paulines, its not like you told us anything confidential. Thank you for letting us know you got a reply.

It is worrying that Ken has not posted for such a long time. I do hope he's ok.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew

Concerned about Ken, Mick.

I knew that but some people had questioned the whereabouts of Dan so I was letting those who hadn't noticed know that he had been on there today.

Beg pardon.

Post by: Admin aka Dan on June 29, 2008, 22:59:59
I am here.

Sadly I have heard nothing from or about Ken, I do not know anymore than any other members.

I'm not sure how we could go about contacting Ken's family to find out what has happened, let us hope he just decided to take a break from the site.

If I hear anything I will be sure to update.

Dan

SAMANTHA, REMEMBER OUR CONVERSATION YESTERDAY , PHEW WHAT A RELIEF. ;D
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew
Post by: kenkew on August 14, 2008, 22:11:43
Phew! Well, hello again, and first off, yes! It has been quite a harrowing time for me of late, ( medically and other-wise, but that's life, eh?) How I do I thank all you well wishers, those on here and those of you who contacted me in other ways? I really don't know how to thank you all and to apologise to for my sudden absence...(I don't really need to put it into words do I? ...you all know who you are... and knowing me...and knowing you, words aren't really necessary.)
 But many thanks anyway.
 I've managed to make some contact via cyber-cafe's here and in the UK and at the moment this is a temporary return. My set-up here is for about 2 weeks all being well but should, from mid-September be permanent.
 Sorry for the hassle my absence has caused, particularly regarding the photo section. I'm hoping with your help we can get it up and running again as you would like in a few weeks.
Thanks again to you all and I hope to be in touch soon, Ken.

WELCOME BACK KEN :-* :)  I can't tell you what a relief it is to hear from you again after all this time.  Never mind about the photo comp. As long as you are ok that is the main thing.  Look forward to hearing from you much more once you are settled.

Post by: kenkew on August 18, 2008, 21:44:52
You lot are gonna have me crying in my beer....(if I can remember where I put it!) I see there are many other topics opened on here regarding my absence and, well, most of you know my views on multiple posting so, as well meant as they all are, anything I have to say regarding this will be posted here, in the original post.

 My set-up just now is still a dodgy one so I grab the moment as I can. Explanations for my absence at a later date, but no panic, in a few short weeks when I fix my steam generator I'll be around more than I have been of late.
 Certainly missed you all these past few months but when I have managed to connect I see that the A4A team is just as strong as ever. I doubt any site has such a strong 'family' bond as A4A.
'See' you all soon...certainly miss the banter and advice.
Ken. (Kew)
PS: Once again, thanks for the concern and messages I managed to extract, albiet in wierd ways.
Title: Re: AWOL: Kenkew

We don't need explanations Ken, (cover the beer with a beer mat). Just come back firing on all cylinders with your generator steaming nicely ;D :)
