Sweet, I might register when it gets to 665.

How many have posted within the last year?

sadly very few of them, i think we scare them off,

it's alright folks we won't bite (unless you ask nicely)

This year has been busier than the previous, I think, but it would be nice to see more of the newly registered folks saying hello! Quite a few have registered since the spring fair, I was wondering if the Irish chap me & Áine were chatting to by the Gunnar stand is one of them!

When I got to my 601-700 order book, I actually ripped out the pages that would have been order 666!

(Fierce superstitious!)

Cool! Can we run a poll to vote for forum members most closely aligned to the Four Horsemen. (I'll save ye tall the bother: nominations for Plague and 'Pest'-ilence are now closed...

)

when we reached number 666 on estliet last year i was sorely tempted to play a blast of iron maiden "Number of the beast"

The last three numbers of our business telephone number are "666"

I wondered why things kept moving from where I put them and why we have green ooze coming out of the walls?

It seems that 616 and 665 also claim to be the Number Of The Beast.

See Wikipedia

However, no matter which one I tried, I just got "number not recognised".

Anyone have the Area Code Of The Beast?

Hear, hear! The larger the number of contributors, the livelier and more informative the discussions!

We do have a new member registered from his locale...

This place is seriously affecting my chances of ever becoming a PFG!
It's almost tomorrow o'clock and I've yet to click on TFG!

(Durraing Durraing - Durraing Durraing)

Water has been tested regards meetings in the flesh

There will be more of that - a huge success

(Durraing Durraing - Durraing Durraing)

It's a seriously useful tool and a force to be reckoned with - 'Instant agony'

One trade mag has tried it and failed (I think TPB framers forum has at last been taken out)

The FATG has been invited here and snubbed us - they communicate during working hours by phone, email and snail mail; we are 24/7 - they are missing out.

Let's put the 'they' and 'we/us' behind us eh? We've all got something in common - let's bury the hatchet - it might not be nice to start with - but it'll settle - look at TFG.

Don't lurk - got summut to say? Say it.

Good job John!

(Gawd - so many Johns here - that was not a 'sign off' - but huge props to (Estlite) John)

the frum should have a warning [CAUTION - Browsing this forum may cause time to travel faster than normal]

Me too. I'm in serious need of beauty sleep and just not getting it. Even given up playing games on the computer. Computer was out of action since Sunday morning till this evening because we were getting a work top fitted in the study (sounds posh but it aint), so have spent the evening catching up on posts I've missed. Not finished yet, haven't got to Members Only. Probably end up chatting to Steve and Aine in the wee small hours of the morning!

Well I'm still here, but just about to go. Where's the moggy? Must be out on a mousing expedition

Mary Case GCF · Post by **Mary Case GCF** » Tue 19 Feb, 2008 8:17 am

Sorry Steve. Finally managed to get away just after that last post. Now lurking in case I missed something. Looks like most people had an earlyish night, or they're not as sad as me!
