Not long left here. It'll be a shame to see the old girl go. So now's the chance to go all misty-eyed at any favourite forum moments... _________________ A Random Me

My favourite moment was all the whining when we moved to this forum from the old one.  _________________ |

Mine too..... I loved the old phorum, and I love this one even more. I'm sure before too long I'll love the new one too - if the way it has evolved in the past few months are anything to go by it could end up being the best yet. _________________

Oh and Geoff - unless you can post about 500 times in the next week, I shall remain unsurpassed in the post count stakes! _________________

Yep, with a new Swan, comes a new club & new froum.
Well the Swan is a massive improvement, so it looks good for the new club & forum from where I'm drinking - I mean standing, (well sitting). _________________ Just Have Fun |

I probably could if I put my mind to it, but it'd be childish. I shall content myself with having a high total on the last version. _________________ A Random Me

I know I'm not one of you main stream members, but I will miss checking out the forum on my night shift. The filter at work blocks the new one. I'm trying to get into the habit of checking it out during the day, I might not post a lot, or come to events, but i do like to keep up with what you are all up to .
And I'll also miss posting happy new year messages from work, just after midnight  _________________ Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive, well preserved body, but rather with......chardonnay in one hand, chocolate in the other,body totally worn out, and screaming " Woo Hoo, what a ride " |

So farewell then Sproutlore, I joined here after someone posted wanting Mr Don & Mr George Videos which I still have somewhere and came back a bit later before signing up just in time to get the last Merc.
See you all at the Order  |

According to the OSG site - TODAY..... at 6pm no less....
Quote:
"Issue two of the Order of the Golden Sprout should have arrived with everyone by this date and this means all existing club members will have been asked to renew via the new club and will therefore have full forum and website access. This means the old club now goes into archive and the forum will close - if you haven't signed up to the new club I would suggest this is the time to do it by......." _________________
