Reminiscing...it's nice at times.

Post by Icefever »

I think this will work...it as so far.

I'm reminiscing while on holls, away in the trailer tent somewhere in deepest darkest Wales until next Monday then back to the madhouse. :lol:

I bought along enough drink to keeps us happy for the week...and I got to thinking how long I've been doing this hobby and how far I've come in those years. I've been back on the old site surfing away to my heart content...I found my first post in "Welcome to the forum".....

Another blast from the past is Phantom. https://stillsmarter.co.uk/archive/view ... ml?f=1&t=2 first one to join 8-)

Then Mash came along in Jan 2015...followed by Gaza in March 2016....Myles was back in 2007 I think I found a post from him then??.....so many names from the past...Anavrin..Almanac..Admiral Toad..YHB...Fuf..Chill......and loads more, sorry if I haven't shown your name....where have they all gone??? ;)

As soon as the sun goes over the yardarm I will be raising a glass or two or maybe three to every damn one of you...

It is frightening, but cheering at the same time.
The amount of time that some of us have been around is staggering, and phantom deserves his medal, well done Jenny!
The old site was run for profit, this one is not.
It is intended to be helpfull and keep folks safe.
I am happy to be here.
