    From the mouths of babes, and nose-picking monkeys.

    Well said Zed.

    It only takes one drink to get me loaded. Trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or fourteenth.

    What the heck is going on here?
    Stick to bloody woodwork and all will be happy, (or at least the silent majority) I remember this forum from last century when the subsciber-ship(?) was so small that we practically knew each other personally. Time and evolution means that like all things this board has changed, whether for better or worse is a matter of opinion.
    But the solution is in our own hands, if we don't like the heat we can get out of the kitchen!

    So we have to stick to woodwork even in the Nothing to do with Woodwork forum? :confused:

    Default Lignum, please don’t leave.

    I’m amazed at the heat and responses this thread has generated. Definitely not my intention and it definitely was not my intention that Lignum was made to feel unwelcome.

    I have told him that privately and now publicly that I don’t want Lignum to leave.

    It has become a mountain out of a molehill, so please let us all reduce the mountain back to a molehill and make everyone, including Lignam, feel welcome.

    Whilst I did have a problem with his post, and I still think the phrase “Get a life” without the right smiley, indicating a joking manner, is rather insulting and playing the man not the ball. But I readily accept that this was not Lignum’s intention and there is absolutely no need for him to consider leaving.

    I did see his posts and did not reply as in the heat of the moment I might have played the man and not the ball as well, and said things that later I would regret. Probably a mistake on my part and for the extra angst that this caused I apologize.

    However I believe my post was justified in trying to get members to take stock of what has been happening and hopefully bring reality and respect back into it. Not surprisingly, I’ve heard of quite a few others who have become lurkers again for similar reasons.

    As I’ve indicated in my opening post I’m not yet leaving but I’m drastically curtailing my online activity because of time constraints as my rekindled enjoyment in dancing has been making big inroads on my time. This change in direction or “ Getting a different life” whilst reducing my online activity does not mean I won’t be around to make the odd post as I have time.

    I'll also will keep answering any questions on the various jigs I've posted, but sometimes a pm might be needed to alert me.


    Peter.
