I thought it would be a great idea if I posted a new topic, as there seems to be very little life on here for quite some time now.
What do others think? 😉
I'm still thinking about it..
Go for it JBR :cool:

Yeh! Good fun, innit?
Sorry I can't make the early morning run, i'm in Cumbria.
I did today. Still puffing.
I'm up for a run.. Got my navy blue knickers and white t-shirt on ready..
I hope they still fit.. !!
Maybe tomorrow.
Quote from: Ashy on April 04, 2024, 10:33:37 AMMaybe tomorrow.
Ah, but we all know, tomorrow never comes.
Rain forecast for tomorrow. I bet that comes.

I am undecided on how best to advise, it might have been easier for me if you had done a multi choice answer.
Oh..hi JB.
I'm loving your new topic JBR.. This is where I come to when I need to rest my brain...
Bit like a Brian thread.

Well, I'm glad it has worked out, Scrum. I only posted it as a joke.
I'm glad you managed to make it Vlad, and I haven't had a telling-off from the boss!

Thanks JB, SWMBO has already had a pop, you should be resting she says, I am lying down and typing with one finger I retorted...she gave me one of her looks, you know the ones...the look that could stop a wounded pre-menstrual charging water buffalo in its tracks, I tried to hide under the duvet....

I fully understand. After all I, too, am scared of my wife when she's that way out.
Incidentally, one consequence of giving you those clues is that if I now post on 'the mother ship', I am immediately informed that "this message is awaiting approval by a moderator".
I can't say that I am particularly upset, as I tend to post less on that site anyway. There are some very argumentative people there, I'm afraid, whose posts are not moderated by humour!
And I'm sure you know that humour is my hobby.

Oh dear, it will be the naughty step for you now. I do tend to find that forums evolve over time and eventually end up being very authoritarian. A sort of,
' it's my ball, my pitch, my game and I am the ref, so here is a red card' There are some posters on the mother ship that really grip my shit, my block list on there is quite long. 😀 Anyway new forum, new people, new and fresh ideas, I must try....and behave

To be fair, the two responses I posted on there recently, now seem to have been cleared for general consumption.
I do understand how the boss is upset that people from his forum have moved over here, but most still post on his forum as well, so he isn't actually losing members.
Ooh JB. Who's been a norty boy then?
Problems of this nature is why the site header features this..

No running for me - I had a foot operation mid-March and I am hobbling around with a special shoe and crutches.

Ahhh, while you are here great leader and owner of a magnificent post count...why does it show a link to my IP address under my avatar?
Edit
Don't answer that...I did the obvious and clicked on it and found my answer...doh!
Vlad, don't mention klondy's excessive hair. I did once and got away with it.
Quote from: dextrous63 on April 10, 2024, 04:40:53 PMVlad, don't mention klondy's excessive hair. I did once and got away with it.
Confused dot com, she has lots of hair?
Klondy is a he, although one can be forgiven for making the mistake.
Think David Attenborough in Rwanda in 1979. Think of the need for a double in case the film didn't work out.
I haven't a clue what sites you mean,
Azz?
Pensioners Forum?
Fifty Plus?
F3A?
And which one is the Mother Ship for goodness sakes?!
I'm in Desperately Trying To Understand mode 😂
Hey, I've just remembered we've got PMs on here, so if you're shy you can send me a message to ease my confusion!!

Oh! My deepest apologies Klondike ..it was the massive post count that threw me.....I think I had better shut up now...
PF is the mothership
:check:
...and the turnip's place is OFC. Although I had a look a couple of days ago and didn't recognise many of the people who now inhabit it. Good luck to them in their having the rent boy nipping any normality in the bud.

JBR when are you starting this new topic...? 😉

Well, yes. It seems to have taken off, though I fully expected it to rot away when I hadn't really started any proper conversation.
It seems that some people will join in anything here! Though I'm grateful that they have done.
Tongue in cheek was my question....🙄

JBR.. Are you being monitored over there.?
Quote from: Scrumpy on April 11, 2024, 12:08:57 PMJBR.. Are being monitored over there.?
Yes. Automatic moderation for me: anything I post is held back until checked over by 'a moderator' (whoever they are). Obviously, I broke the first commandment: mentioning this forum!
I honestly don't think there is anything wrong with people posting on both of them. I post on both... sometimes.
On which thread did you mention us JBR and was your post deleted ? Indeed to have a nose over there

:yay: :clap: :yahoo: It's Yogi..
Nah. Can't be. Talking bears that act as chauffeurs, mend cars, run errands and all the other good stuff can only exist in the same universe as Brian. Brian was why Yogi was born. It was essential to find something at a similar level of believability and Yogi fitted the bill.

I didn't! I didn't actually mention this forum. I just dropped hints. I said such things as, "It's a friendly place". and I suppose that the penny finally dropped.
I'm afraid I can't remember now which thread it was. Sorry.
So why are you on pre-moderation?
Quote from: klondike on April 11, 2024, 06:50:27 PMSo why are you on pre-moderation?
Obviously, because I provided clues to the name of this place, and suggested Vlad should give it a try.
Give him his due, he didn't actually ban me, and my posts do seem to appear shortly after posting them.
I think I did also mention that some people are happy to visit both sites.
