I have recently been in a couple of trades and straight out been given tobacco here lately,you know who you are,and the generosity just astounds me.
Folks here are just simply the best people I have ever met. If you are new here do some do some trading you will see what i mean.
A big thanks to all. I am planing another give away. I'm not sure about the details yet but I will be posting about it in the next few days.
So again thanks to all and I am PROUD to call this site HOME.

Generosity and camaraderie are PSF virtues. We don't take an oath when we sign up here and there isn't a constitution or handbook, but treating each other well and with respect is something that rubs off on new members from the example set by old members. Thanks for sharing this, Pip. Thank you, also for keeping your trading pal anonymous (It wasn't me).
I don't do a lot of trading, having little to trade that will be of interest to most members unless they like canned sardines, used pipe cleaners, and lint from my pockets that are empty of every else. That said, I think it is safe to say that all of us give our all when we contribute here online to a discussion and when we pack a package in trade or as a gift. Exceeding expectations is the PSF way.
Set your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed. Be a member of PSF and you'll never be disappointed.
Ours is a forum full of solid citizens who have earned the trust of their fellow members. We're all chums here. That's a nice way to look at it. If you can trust a fellow forum member on PSF, you will be more likely to trust a person on the street. PSF builds up human kindness in its way so that we can spread friendship and civility wherever we go. There are no strangers here, only friends we haven't yet met. Everyone has a friend on PSF. Let's all endeavor to practice what we do here in the real world. Exceed exceptions and be a friend to all. The real world could use a lot less rancor and debate and lot more camaraderie and good will.
A tip of my fedora your way, Pip. Thanks for sharing.

I run a small hotel in New Orleans. It's in Louisiana, in case you're thinking of another New Orleans I've never heard of.
