Ay, go on there julian67, if meandean* can be tolerated as a Spam Buster this lot can be as mods. Mind you it shows just how far they had to go to find a replacement for Lavene.

The last time I spoke to him, he was planning a (literal) vacation and a metaphorical one from the forum. He'll be back before too long, I expect - probably with a new name...

I have learned a great deal from reading posts from Absent Minded, craigevil, and Telemachus. Their new appointments as Global Moderators will continue to benefit these forums. Congratulations, guys!
