No need to elaborate. The question is in the title.

Since the nice weather has arrived I`ve been doing more in the garden and out walking and basically doing outdoor stuff.

Not much grabbing me, to be honest. I'd rather play games.

I'm not sure why not Figgy! I think the hot weather the fact that people are away for the school easter holidays may have something to do with it.

I post sporadically, but it's not like the old days where I found lots to comment on or post on. I used to think up topics to post up at all odd times of the day, now I very rarely get any inspiration or if I do by the time I get home I'm really not that arsed to put it up.

But we've always said in the past that a board is only as good as it's members and maybe we're all fed up with each other or we know what each other thinks before we post it, or we just can't be arsed!

I must admit I'm interested to know why Flip, Cat and Andrea stopped posting very suddenly after being three of the most prolific posters on the board - I wish they'd all come back!

Just going to post up a topic that I've been mulling over for a few days now ... even though I don't have detailed knowledge on it!!!

Its odd alright how the place has got so quiet. Its not really the weather either - it been like this since I came back towards the end of last year.

Its been quiet before now, but not like this. Quite a few long term members have just gone or almot gone (Flip, Cat, Andrea, Maxine, ILS, Voicey, Blink) and those who remain are showing up less and less frequently. I've never seen the likes of Groucho, Fee and SF so absent in the past! And when people do deign to show up, they hardly post and rarely start new threads (probably because they know they will get a lacklustre response).

I haven't really been a regular contributor for the last couple of years - I've just flitted on and off the forum - so I am at a loss to know why.

I know why I've been less inclined to post, but I can't answer for anyone else.

It seems quite sad. Like the end of an era.

I'm working away from home at the moment and have been too busy to get online. Plus, I don't like logging in on client's time.

The other problem just now is that I'm :shutup: with some of the stuff I'm doing. And, no Patsy, a PM will not work.

An idiot who can't get the lid of his spot cream to do what?

I, personally, blame the lack of posting on the poor grammar and spelling of our current membership. :cool:

Can we dig up the old punctuation and grammar thread please, I loved that thread.

Oh PJ,

Tell me your not like those men who want to watch two lesbians. Mr M has me tired of all his requests for added entertainment from some of my theatre cronies. I'm sure one day somebody will try filling him in with a Geordie Biscuit.

Has something gone wrong then so that people have stopped posting or not posting as much?

Just checked and it appears 56 members have posted this year from the list.

I think people are posting a lot more since this thread started actually, which is (imo) quite quite lovely! :wub: :yahoo:

when you say hitting ... do you mean ... hitting?!

yours in concern at being bitch slapped

Patsy
19-04-2007, 08:57 PM
Presumably, one can only be bitched slapped if one is, indeed, a bitch. Or are you thinking of the word "bitch" more in the "bee-atch" way?

not sure what you mean Patsy by "bee-atch"?!

but to answer the first part of your presumption - I am, indeed, a bitch ... and darn proud of it actually! :ninja:

I'm presuming he'd find it more interesting than watching one.

Patsy

Re your first comment, bee-atch is a rather quaint modern term for girlfriend, I believe.

Re your second, it was never in doubt. :wink2:

Oh, I don't know. Maybe if she was flossing?

That'll be a tv channel in a few years time. You watch.

And Dol, to answer your question, not hitting as in hitting. But reaching. Achieving if you will.

But whats a little light spanking between friends? :naughty:

Pats, we quaint Colonials spell it 'bee-otch'. PJ gets off on people flossing??:ninja:

Dol, have you seen my quaint avatar?? "No drama. Violators will be BITCH SLAPPED!" I'm quite fond of it...I was going to change it last night since I've had it for a record time in my case, but found after a few gin toddies, I had a leeetttlle trouble trying to re-size something I wanted to use in my PaintShop Pro...there was a day when the site, this one, used to do it auto for you...alas, H has got us doing it for ourselves.:ohmy:
