Re: General Natter Room
I'm back online! On Tuesday 26th September the roofers managed to cut my phone line. This morning BT have repaired it- to be fair they were not notified straight away. I didn't see much point until the roofers had finished .Happily, I now have a new cable from the roof down to the phone socket inside (this was a free upgrade some years ago- but I was out so they could only do the outside cable). Looks like many posts to catch up on

Re: General Natter Room
I’ve now been on the forums for ten years. Yes, I joined ten years ago today and it has been a very interesting and enjoyable ten year period. During this time I have met some wonderful fellow Blytonites and made some great friends. So a big THANK YOU all for the past ten years and here’s to the next ten!

Re: General Natter Room
A big thank you to you too for all your contributions, Eddie!
Gosh, have I only known you for ten years? It seems a lot longer - and I mean that in the nicest possible way!

Re: General Natter Room
How the time goes so quickly, Eddie. This is a great place to meet so many lovely people, and as you say, Eddie make some great friends.
I've just looked at my own avatar and see that I too joined ten years ago. Gosh, I can't believe it.
