    paulw - The vacation is over

    So who remembers me? Kovan welcomed me back

    The user community seems to have changed a bit.

    Kedaman still has a planet sized brain
    Parksie still has more post than the Royal Mail
    Honeybee is still well...
    Guv and Der Farm are keeping the old-timers represented and
    Baark is still Katie (bless her)

    Who are these new ones?

    aknisely
    Filburtn seem to be about three
    jpbtennisman
    Beacon
    The Raabinator

    So many seem to have fallen away (sob) too many to name.

    Bet nobody replies...

    Cheers,

    P.

    PS, Gaffer, td - get in touch, I need beer!
    Not nearly so tired now...

    Haven't been around much so be gentle...

    let me tell you who the rest are


    aknisely - a jewish guy who you should not pick on in any shape or form, or you will get moderated, and get banned...
    Filburtn - hmm, a java lover, dont argue with him about java, he will hang you by your balls..., and real cool guy

    jpbtennisman - what can i say, he helps me pick on people, good for him
    Beacon - STAY AWAY FROM THIS GUY.......
    The Raabinator - beats the hell out of me who this is

    I've been regular for the last few months - ever since that prune juice...

    Actually, I can put in time now and then but work is fairly busy. Most of my posts are in the Database Development forum. I miss out on the Chit Chat ones.

    You up to the smoke anytime soon?

    Cheers,

    Now he's telling jokes. Did we ask for this. Did we say "please Mike, tell us some jokes"? I don't think so.

    Oi! Parksie son, shut the **** up!!

    well, you're of course not talking about me, since not good doesn't describe much less than very good

    I guess I am guilty as well, but that's only because I had no idea which option was #3

    I know Beacon has been around for a while - I was just making the point that I was pre-Beacon and I haven't been around for a while...

    Option 3 was only there so that I could feel happy when no-one voted for it... b* *stards.

    And yes, I'm looking forward to having Katie here.

    Has Shanea disappeared? Last I knew she crashed the car big style and went to Pluto for her honeymoon...

    Actually, I have been around, but there hasn't been much worth replying to...

    (Wins more friends...)

    Guys,

    Its good to spread the word and Abdul, I was on this forum when you were still at school... What's that, you still are...

    Seriously, I am fairly active in the Database forum and occassionally dip into the Chit Chat for a good argument. Kovan will vouch for me - we've sparred on occasions!

    Anyway,

    I'm back now... remember the name...

    [Sinister music and demonic laughter exits left...]

    Cheers,

    P.
    Not nearly so tired now...
