Hi yourself.
First things first - Keep up the good work! As a 2 or 3 packs a day smoker I hope you can stick to it and kick the noxious weed.
When I first saw this post I wondered 'Why?'. Then it clicked, you've noticed that I'm the Sub for your entry 'Hives - The Causes, Symptoms and Treatments' at A1317917 (Notice the subtle change in the title - it's a hootoo editors thing).
Anyway - THANK YOU, it's a real pleasure to sub an entry like this one! It's everything that I like in an entry. Good length, long enough to cover the subject well without unnecessary extras thrown in for decoration (a failing of mine, I admit). Good choice of subject, interesting to almost every one. And most important of all, hardly anything for me to do. Just the tweak in the title, change the double quotes to single (another hootoo editors thing) and one minor typo.
If you're happy with what I've done, then it can be sent onwards to join the waiting list for the front page (and I don't think it will be kept waiting long).
Once again, Thanks to you (and your 'assistants') for a really enjoyable entry.

Oh - ta very much for the encouragement It means a lot. It's Day 12 today.......
As for the entry, I didn't think you would do anything with it that quickly You must work fast!!!! I must admit that without Mikey and Friar, I couldn't have got it to where it is. It was my subject, but they helped me tweak it into something a little more readable.
Oh - btw, this thread wasn't a hint for you to look at it by the way, it was more of a "hey - I haven't met this guy before and this seems a good time to introduce myself" so here I am
I'm sure what ever you have done to the guide will be acceptable, but I'll have a look in approximately 30 seconds just to be sure If you don't hear back from me, I'm more than happy.
And once again - thank you

Well I haven't heard any complaints, so it's off to the towers with it!
I know the coughing hurts - but just think of how much money you'll be saving, and especially what you can do with the cash!! Holidays, anyone

My finger was on the button to send it back! - Then I hesitated and decided to try a slight change to the first paragraph.
What do you think?

Oh, that much better! My use of the English language isn't very good, but you've perfected it quite nicely
Thank you

This time the button got pressed! The entry is now back with the Editors and should make a well-deserved appearance on the front page in due time.
I'm glad to see that the coughing is settled down - stick with it! Keep thinking of all that lovely money you will save and what you can do with it.
