A message from John (Fig Insanity)

8 years ago

I’ve had an email from John, AKA Fig Insanity. He doesn’t post here anymore, but really wanted me to pass along a message.

He wanted to let everyone know that Augusta Louise will be available at Palatine Roses on September 10th. He knew many of us were desperately trying to obtain her, after seeing Diane’s amazing pictures of her.

He also expressed his concern for all those facing surgery or health problems. John said he truly misses his friends from this forum. So, “Hello everyone”, from John, (Fig Insanity).

A hello from a deep ice hole. What happened? John doesn’t post here anymore? Why? Someone hurt his feelings? Fell out of love of roses? Too much into fig trees? Come back here John!

Hi Summers. It was the frustration with Houzz that caused him to leave. I’m not sure if he’s posting anywhere. I know he was pretty adamant about not trying to mess with Houzz anymore, so I don’t think he’s eager to go through the frustration again. Sorry, Lisa

He is a song writer, compare to that Houzz’s technical difficulties is a piece of cake........writing a song is a thousand times harder than a couple more tries on Houzz......hopefully he will changed his mind. John, if you hear me, get your butt back here! :-)

I just emailed John again, and encouraged him to read the comments here. He did mention that he doesn’t often go to Houzz to read because it just reminds him of what once was. I do understand that, and respect his decision if he is t willing to try again. That being said, I do wish he would give it one more try.

John, if you’re reading this, maybe you could just try adding a comment here. Most people don’t have a problem adding a comment to an existing thread. Many people are able to start new threads with text, but are only able to post photos in a comment following their initial post. I am in that category unless I use my Amazon Fire tablet. For some reason I CAN post pictures with my opening post on that. Since I prefer to use my iPhone, I just add my pictures in a comment immediately afterwards. I hope to hear from you one way or another. Thinking of you, as are others. Lisa
