Default A Big Thank You to Everyone

I'd like to say a big thank you to all the members here, those who have made this place the fantastic place it is with such a warm feeling and the ability to talk about such diverse subjects so candidly whilst being sensible when needed and always engaging and amusing.


In out short life we've had 200 users

18 of whom have never posted
29 more who have less than 10 posts

and right now we have 128 active users; that's users that have logged on in the last 8 weeks

That means that over two years or so we've only lost about 25 members and many of those had relatively low post counts and never got into the BD 'thing'.

You've arranged meets all over the country and given others the chance to visit places they may never have gone, help each other in times of stress both materially and with moral support.

I think thats pretty amazing myself, there is no doubt that our membership does indeed rock!

So a big thank you to all of you for making this place what it is and what I hope it will continue to be.

Give yourselves a big

MB

I concur with the sentiments said by the big guy.

Thank you to all of you, not only for your help and support, but for your kindness, generosity and selflessness. Not only this but generally the new friendships that have emerged, the personal guidance and support you've offered yourselves and others and even me.

New relationships forged, new friendships developed, and in spite of disagreements a maturity and sensibility that I'd expect not only from my friends but from the human race.

You are all wonderful, caring people and I think I'd be very much unhappier without you lot to turn to.

You forgot hairy

I know I haven't been posting much the last month or 2 and I've missed it a bit One thing I never questioned though is that when I'm not dead on my feet that I'll be welcomed back with open arms
