Can't seem to reply to Highlanders post directly, but that does seem like a good idea, i.e. firing lurkers.
It is a bit annoying to see so few posts by the few of us and then read a long list of visitors at the bottom of the chat home page who have the advantage of our wit and wisdom but contribute nothing. Though culling lurkers only once a year seems a bit generous to me!
Having said that, even the usual suspects seem to have deserted the forum now (including the mods!).
What do you think?

Reading through the forum as a newcomer I'd say you had a lot to do with it There don't seem to be any nice conversations anymore .

I think steviec's posts are missed too as he used to contribute quite a lot of interesting stuff and start discussion about training and problems. Of course, he is now just all on facebook (of which I refuse to join). Now the forum is just a bit like a private party I think you do your best Morrich and Twisock but no-one else seems interested in joining in.

I must confess I spend more time on HHO these days and sometimes don't bother to look in here. We did have a brief revival the other day but it has gone quiet again now. RIP.

Shall I keep putting on a regular weekend thread?? Now you know what my reply to that will be! Your reports are far too good to be given away free and you ought to start sending some stuff away to magazines and getting paid for it! ;D (If I nag long enough, I'll get there ).

LOL Morrich- I meant for other folk to put what they are up to at weekends, not a running commentary! ;D

LOL Morrich- I meant for other folk to put what they are up to at weekends, not a running commentary! ;D Yes, a very good idea. The trouble is, when you're working alone, one day is much like another. Today, I am erecting post and rail in front of the stable. This afternoon, we'll be working on the youngsters again. I am particularly fascinated to know what notforlong does when not lurking or posting on here! ;D So far, I think it is working out at one post every three months. Then, he/she/it goes into intellectual meltdown and takes another three months to think up another little outburst, to be posted under a new screen name of course! (Hush, I don't think we are meant to notice or know who it is ;D ;D ;D).

I'm on as much as possible but currently have no working laptop or wifi connection...not quite the same browsing through on my mobile! Will hopefully have laptop fixed asap and will contribute more. I do read most things but get frustrated trying to write a decent reply on my phone.
