Now if you will excuse me, I'm off to poach some FG'ers to come to my new hangout.


Good to see you back Accountable.

Thats bizarre AC, I just signed back on today also to see if anything has changed after being gone for 2 months. By reading some of this thread, no I haven't read the whole thread, it doesn't look like a lot has changed....but to be fair I will look around and check things out....I miss the FG that used to be so much fun. :-3:thinking:

In answer to your question, no I am not. Although we are both moderators, G-man is in America and I'm in the UK.

I hope you and yours are well and life is kind to you Acc, and you really should come back from time to time and don't abandon us completely :(

Jeez no, some places there's more effing and blinding than on a building site - I can make a wharfie blush but you know when it's directed at posters it's really off-putting.

ForumGarden is well managed I think.

Welcome back you lot! :guitarist :-6 ;) Hey, it looks as if there are many members who are actually reading the threads but for some reason don't contribute! I think we should make a concerted effort to introduce a lot more threads of diverse subject matter, then maybe these 'absent' members will be tempted to post more regularly. It would, indeed, be good to see! :D

i was absent for a while,, then came back and made the odd few posts but got no response really, i have participated in this thread as i thought maybe it could end up being of some help but i still feel like there's only about 3 or 4 members seem to talk to me here now so i will wait a while longer i think;):lips:

It's great to see you Kaz - and you Fuzzy, and didn't I even see Uncle Kram around the other day? It's also encouraging to see some of the posts from members who are still regulars. In my opinion, in the last few days Forum Garden has indeed had a few moments of sparkle, which means there is hope.
