Post by weeksy »

As you'll see from the names at the bottom of the page, we now have a new Mod in place.

@Count Steer

I like to try and give different people a chance to experience things and he's the 4th we've had in the last 2 years since we began.

@crust is also a mod, but techincally he doesn't really moderate, he's also the emergency Admin in case i drop dead, he's got all the permissions i have, although not necessarily the knowledge on day 1.....

Mod stuff is a fairly thankless task at times and it does sometimes mean you have to change your posting style... I know it certainly has for me, if i posted some of the replies i think in my head on some of the threads, i'd have to ban myself :)

So... play nice and don't give him too much to clear up

No worries, I just have a faint aroma of apples, new mown hay and talcum powder. :lol:

Yeah it's something i didn't know whether i should or shouldn't do... some don't like the world knowing who's a mod and who's not, but in the interest of transparency i thought i would.

+ ligament and Werthers. :thumbup:

Actually, having seen how much K12GT you can get for your 💰 I might just be tempted to freshen up the wee. :lol:

Edit: liniment not ligament :(

That's an enviable start. Gets his first post as a Mod wrong ;)

Just used to get sent to the stores for a 'long weight' back in the day, or got your nethers greased (which was probably in preparation for the hat) :shock:

Long stand, Skyhook, Bucket of steam to test pipes, New bubble for a spirit level, Tartan paint, Cordless extension,

I was slightly disappointed that nobody tried to send me for a Skyhook cos I spotted two sizes of em in the Petzl climbing and caving geat catalogue and might well have brought one back just out of sheer bloodymindedness.

Cheers! I'm loving the uniform. :thumbup: (The purple satin cummerbund is a bit snug mind).
