Love this site. And I reckon I've joined at just the right time. I'll certainly have a look tomorrow. Are there really prizes to be won or is that a joke? Am having abit of a break from travelling for a while, so this site will help to keep me in touch with what's happening.

gday fred and welcome to you, yep you got it right, spot on the nose, best damn forum this side (and the other side ) of the black stump ( I should know I've seen both sides) just want a yak, it's here, want some info, it's here, want to contribute, well your more than welcome, I dont usually chase forums, full of big heads and know it alls, this one is not, full of good mates (male and female) having a yak helping each other out and the day it changes away from this attitude is the day I'm gone, which would please a few people I'm sure, as for prizes, our goddess of all things poorly written has promised all comers a tin of blue and white striped paint and a sky hook, oh and a long wait,

Just had a chat with "Her Almighty", and it appears I have some bad news for Bubs.
if you are not active every 5-10 minutes, the system logs you off, so she may not be in the count


oh, by the way - i use a 12 hour candle jammed on the pointy end of my sun dial. For day light saving, just cut an hour off (place it back when finished) - simple

I wonder!!! Is there any way to know how many GN logged on during the hour instead of simultaneously as some have been and gone while some may still log on so we are not all on at once.

What ever the "official" result - we got together and had some fun. Those that took part, put a smile on my face, and that is worth plenty to me.

is it the result, or the participation - Good result with great participation is the best, but not the only, outcome.
