            More from Card World
      
  

  
      Card of the day
    
      
  
  
  

      
      Sadly, it has been debunked that when the Second World War was announced a Mickey Mouse cartoon was suddenly halted mid way through, only to be resumed, in exactly the same place, when the War was ended. But it`s a great story, and with that in mind I hereby halt the Card of the Day until further notice, mid way through. The newsletter will also change, to bring news of what I have been tinkering with on the website, and a few fun facts, of course. Things have changed a lot for me in the past seven years, which is when I began writing this newsletter, and I am now embarking on a new chapter, along with my canine companion.  I want to thank everyone who has sent cards and ideas to help me along, or sometimes to save me from blankness. And I promise that normal service will resume, just like the cartoon, once I am settled into my new address....

More from Card World

Card of the day

Sadly, it has been debunked that when the Second World War was announced a Mickey Mouse cartoon was suddenly halted mid way through, only to be resumed, in exactly the same place, when the War was ended. But it`s a great story, and with that in mind I hereby halt the Card of the Day until further notice, mid way through. The newsletter will also change, to bring news of what I have been tinkering with on the website, and a few fun facts, of course. Things have changed a lot for me in the past seven years, which is when I began writing this newsletter, and I am now embarking on a new chapter, along with my canine companion. I want to thank everyone who has sent cards and ideas to help me along, or sometimes to save me from blankness. And I promise that normal service will resume, just like the cartoon, once I am settled into my new address.... .
