He said around xmas that after he got settled in the house etc he might like to get back into it-- "if anyone's interested." He's a pip. I don't want to pester him-- however, next time I write, i will let him know someone has inquired about him. Although I did already tell him that here at the Penguin, people are always interested!

If he ever did answer any more, I would post it here so folks would be aware.

I hope I didn't offend him with that Walker question. Maybe I should have phrased it much more politely. I thought it was a funny question. I guess it was too blunt even for the most down to earth member of Fleetwood Mac.

I don't think he was offended at all. There's actually a bit of a story that goes along w/ your 'walker' question--

You may be amused to know that after the first bunch or so, he requested some questions that were "not so flattering". Typical; he couldn't handle all the compliments. I reminded him this was a fan site and that people did actually like him LOL. oh he's so cute I could eat him up. But anyway--your question immediately came to mind (as it was quite blunt and not so gushing LOL) and I sent it off sort of as a joke, like "How 'bout this?" His response back was almost immediate; I think he got a kick out of it.

That is SO reassuring. So unpretentious. A reminder of why both the McVies are my favorite band members. And I hope he does come back by this Christmas.

You and me both, kid. IMO he did a good job w/ the questions he did get about her. Of course there are some more here that I'd love to see answered, but I couldn't send them all at once.

I don't know if he'll do any more questions.... I can't keep bringing it up; he knows they're here. I think enjoying a great new house in Hawaii, keeping tabs on a busy 16 year old, and hanging out fishing on his boat are the things he is focusing on these days. I hope he's happy.
