Welcome Pete from Australia
« on: April 11, 2007, 03:26:32 PM »
I am posting this welcome because Pete comes from far away Australia.  Good to have you as well as our Kiwis too.
We look forward to hearing and seeing some Aussie ponds and flora.
Please no one should be offended that we don't make posts for all of you

Hi Girls and Guys,

Thanks for welcoming me to American Ponders. I am very glad to have become a member and look forward to developing friendships with other ponders throughout the world. :)

I was hoping that someone might also assist me to make contact with either Sue or Greg Speichert @ Watergardening Magazine as i am trying to follow up my subcription to their watergardening magazine. Everytime i email sue @   sue@watergardening.com  my emails keep bouncing back to me.  Can anyone please assist me with an alternative email address to contact the Speicherts?  I would deeply appreciate it if someone could check their Watergardening magazine to establish if there is an alternative email address that you might be able to provide me with.

I look to making long time friendship with other ponders.  I am also happy  to correspond via email to follow ponders.  I look forward to hearing from you.

Hmmm, trying to come up with a way it don't sound harsh or ugly, so here it goes.

Sorry to tell you this but, you might as well forget it.  From my understanding its just gone, so cut it as a loss friend and move on.  Many people never got their magazines.     :no:

Yup, a lot of us had the same problem with the magazine you had. But this forum is better than a magazine. We have pictures, tutorials, advice, lots of questions and answers all the time. And you can get specific answers to specific questions. Besides that, we have developed friendships over the years. It will be interesting to learn about your country and ponding experiences. Welcome.

Welcome. I think it's better than the Mag. cuz all questions get answered, and we all share what we know, not just blips here and there. If you prefer a magazine, just print us. ;D
I'm just happier outside!

You guys sure said it well! O0

"We" all of us, really are a good magazine! Lots of real info and comments from so many here.  It is hands on experiences that are shared.  Questions are answered by many in the know!
 What magazine would dare say that a potential advertiser mad a lousy product?
Photos galore too!  What magazine leads you into lasting friendships?
 And, it is FREE! O0

Welcome to the forum, hope you find it to your likeing. :) I feel for you about the magazine. It is too bad.... there really isn't a good pond magazine, or any for that matter about ponds, water gardens any more. :(
