Happy New Year to you & yours, Steven :-)

[Mamyalynne]

Happy New Year Steven and his Nibness.x

[stevenj]

Thank you both. Two who ( with others) gave me the confidence to go on. And you continued your support. Without you,I doubt I would be the enthusiast that I am today.
I see that you give many many people the benefit of your skill and knowledge. You are SO generous.

>>> Happy New Yearp???

Is he a distant relative of Wyatt Earp, perhaps? ;-)

Happy New Wossname anyway, Steven!

[Mamyalynne]

I am nowhere near the top echelons of cryptic solvers Steven, so much still to learn and I do every day.

The real joy of helping someone is to know that they too are ever eager to learn as well.

You are always happy to be helped too.

Happy new year to you steven.

Happy new year steven (from a very minor helper - is that the correct word?).

If you can, why not come on the site to help others now and again; you are more than able to do so.

[Captain2]

^^ I meant 'capable' not 'able'. :))

[stevenj]

And more of my heroes join us! I have avoided giving a list in case I accidentally missed someone. There's a lot of you.
May I just add a word to Mamyalynne? You may not be the best crossworder ( which is what you are saying) but you are very impressive!
But for me,you and a couple of other female helpers,have added support in a more personal way. I don't want to sound sexist by saying that only women can help in this way but it is true that, at a time when i was feeling a bit low,you were a tower of strength. I shall always be grateful.

Aww, what a lovely thing to say :-) Happy New Year, Steven.

[stevenj]

And, of course, you were another marvellous support, scorpiojo. Yours was, perhaps, the gentlest rap over the knuckles I had and deserved, when I assumed that you were a man. An important lesson for me in tackling the sexism inherent in many males.

[scorpiojo]

I'm always happy to help you if I can, Steven, be it crosswords or support, and, please, stop worrying about that. x

[stevenj]

I'm not " worrying". I'm saying thank you. A brilliant side effect of this site has been to help me as a person.
