Beginning to worry

Post by claymore »

I've noticed that things are slipping here a bit and that we seem to be slipping into the old ways of relative (to YBW) inactivity.
This will affect my commission and so I urge you one and all to revive your flagging spirits. Otherwise I'm going to have to go back over to Skifflebump and fall out with someone else causing another exodus.
Regards
Claymore

Well, the site owner hardly exudes confidence in his own site. Since February 22, I have noticed that he has made twice as many posts on YBW as he has done here. 8)

Yes a nasty challenge by Shard who came in with his studs, but not really career-threatening so a simple yellow card should suffice..

OK

The site owner has been updating the forum software and tweaking the new yachts for sale section - as well as trying to find time to get some work done for paying clients.

I go to the other place for a little light relief as it is difficult to find an interesting thread to get stuck into here. I hardly think that can be blamed on the site owner - TOP doesn't depend on the moderators to start threads after all.

Can't you just play nicely among yourselves sometimes without me holding your hands?

But we don't serve fod . . .

Now get off the bloody fence and tell us whether you think there should be a DNA database or not.

I've been having this fantasy about Big Nick.....

Post by Telo »

You know the guy in the lavvy cleaner adverts that sponsor The Bill, a twice weekly light hearted review of the Metropolitan Police at its very best. Well, every time I see the bloke rolling across the floor and fitting the blue stuff on to the pan, I think, "Hmm, good to see Big Nick in such a fit condition".

Should I seek help?

Is there help available for this condition? It's a bit of a niche market I would have thought.

On another matter entirely, do you have any large versions (min 1850 px x 1280px) of those rather splendid pix you posted in the recent far'sit thread? The splashy one would make a fine calendar for March, which is almost upon us.

Absolutely Nick - agree entirely, I just thought you ought to know what the wee divil had been saying about you so that should you feel like exacting some kind of bloody revenge on him.......
