too many personalised number plates, Sharron..

hello everyone ,and yes Ann and bob i remember you,but list was from a vanishing memory.lots of lovely people i remember on here some ive mentioned and some ive not.
I do remember that there was another Suzanne,and we were always getting blamed for each others posts. if the boards have changed for the better ,then i will stay,if not then im on my way again.xx

Do you know how long I spent trying to work out what Ayrs is?

Hello Suzanne! I am touched that you remembered me!

Pleased that you are back.

:-) <3

Welcome back Suzanne.
I remember you as been on here since 2005 and seen many changes.
Don't come on as much as I used to when I was housebound caring for my husband who died 6 years ago,but I do like uncotroversial threads and join in on some topics!

yeah you n me Ann, it seems that unless I absolutely make someone livid no one seems to mention me.....

Hi Suzanne, welcome back,

from the days of frequent board name changes, I used to keep a list of names/ numbers....so I could keep up with who was who.....sure yours is on it somewhere.......
LOL
Bob

Welcome back Suzanne. It's good to see members return.

From one Wales resident to another ... Welcome back Suzanne :-)

I'm Jem.
We haven't met. I'm one of the newer posters. I have been a GR member for about 6 years and been posting on the boards for about 5 years.

welcome back Suzanne,
not the Teresa you mentioned, I was on the boards four years ago and still add to threads once in a while now.

As others have daid, boards are much slower. Some people left left for one reason or another, many of us visit less frequently. Perhaps put off by being RR'd, insulted or ignored.

As people have left there seems to have been very few newbies to replace them. It will be good to get another persons view on the state of the boards, t.v. or the world in general. :-)

Hello Suzanne, I note my name is missing from your list but I remember you. Sharron tells porkies, she still keeps us entertained with her musings. Ok we are far fewer in number but we can still have a laugh.

Nice to see folks returning, welcome back,
can't remember if we ever spoke used to
be Golden Girl 1. :-)

I think poor Fred must still have been alive and still suffering my tender ministrations when you were last on the boards.

He finally found the time to die and I have never found anything interesting to post about since. No time, got to do my own washing and wash up!

Dermot is still around but not as often as I would like.
Sylvia from Canada, BrendafromWales and Nyx make interesting posts.
Sharron does her female version of Bear Grylls in the South Downs.
Errol Sheep is lurking but no longer posts driven out by the witch's coven.
Mr Magoo was forced by GR support to stop quoting English seaside bawdy humour. He still tries though.
There are fewer threads dealing with the ups and downs of everyday life and memories of days of yore. I especially like the latter.
There is much grief as our favorite entertainers pass on.
Modern tv with mumbled diction, muddy sombre photography has largely failed to please. My aged parent likes Skandi crime as it has subtitles.

The software is even more moth eaten. These features no longer work or have vanished:
hot matches, advanced search, print trees, maps, embedded images in tree
but they did fix the problem of poor performance.

good luck

Thanks everyone

nice to be back.x

Welcome Back Suzanne.
Lovely to see the older ones are returning.

Hugs Sue in West Yorkshire. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Hello Suzanne and welcome back.

Yes things have changed and I thought you should know that, unfortunately, Just John was banned from the boards for 6 years (ridiculous), about 3 years ago. We miss his banter and chatter very much. I have kept his thread going since he went.

Very few 'meaty' discussions on here these days sadly.

Hello Suzanne welcome back.

You will be up to speed on the boards within minutes..lol

Sue

Suzanne ........

Welcome back

TBH, GR has changed since you were last on here. Lots of people have left, sadly a few have died, and service is slow. GR is basically now ignored by the powers-that-be as FMP is naturally their favoured site.

We had problems with a trigger finger reporting innocuous posts and so people got fed up.

This Board is much slower than it was even 4 years ago!

Hi Suzanne, welcome back :-D

I've not yet exploded from a surfeit of BBQ'd animals, which reminds me, I need to stock up with more road-kill ;-) :-D :-D

You will find more around tomorrow I expect :-D <3

Sadly some are not with us since you left.....:((

Still have our daily smiley thread and have a few giggles on there.....

I'm off to bobos now so will hopefully catch you tomorrow...really is great to have you back :-D <3
