We're leaving this site.
When we first joined, there was a very warm, friendly community spirit. Having returned to the site after an absence, it was easy to see that things had changed. There's an atmosphere now that's extremely unpalatable - much more rudeness, back-biting, bickering, supposed elitism and cowardliness that it's worth putting up with. Some of it is down to the newcomers, but some of it is perpetrated by people who ought to know better.
Those of you who we've met and got on with, or are in regular contact with, fret not. It's the site we're leaving, not friends we've made through it in the past.
We tried putting up with the poisonous atmosphere for a while, but it's really not worth the effort and annoyance involved. And not only does it drive people away, but it's not good 'public relations' for the acceptance of the scene.
Looks like it's happened to quite a few of us. OK, I'll grant that when I posted and PM'd I did state that I wasn't certain if we would be able to make it to the munch... but would try.
Some kind of reply would have been appreciated, even if only "bugger off".
Thus, we have indeed made other plans.
Welcome... pull up a straitjacket and sit down...

Bah, and indeed humbug too.
This year I've cancelled Christmas, and in lieu of it I'm going to hold the big celebration/get together for midsummer instead. A mate already holds a midwinter party, so I'm going to bag the warm weather one while it's still going!
A suggestion, Mr Swansea... if you'd like your post to attract anything more than a very cursory and rather blank look, how about doing a bit of chatting first and giving people some info about who you are, what you're like, etc.
People than then make an informed opinion about whether they'd like to chat or not...
OK, so I realise the chances are very slim that the f-wits that I'm ranting about will actually read this post... but just in case you do...
Location: A well known north London site.
Time: Around midnight, Monday night/Tuesday morning.
For the attention of the prowling pack of single blokes in the car park...
1. Kindly wait until the sodding wheels have stopped rotating before pressing your faces up against the car windows.
2. When someone tells you to get thee hence and come back in ten or fifteen minutes, try to understand that "go away" means more than four feet away.
3. Give me enough room to open the car door without having to ram it against your 'nads before I can actually do so.
4. When you do return, redoubled in number, try to leave a bit of room around the car. Perhaps enough to slide a Rizla paper through maybe?
5. When I get out of the car a second time to inform you that we're leaving because my young lady is not happy with the situation, consider perhaps that the fault might lie very close to home and had you behaved with more decorum, you may well have had more of a show.
On the bright side...
We had a really good time somewhere else...
And... the look on exhibit A's face when I got out of the car was a picture. If you're going to stand that close, then there's just an outside chance that when someone twice your size gets out of the car, you're going to get loomed over. When that happens and you feel the need to step back suddenly, you really ought to watch what you're stepping in...

On a related note...
How can you send a message to another phone by Bluetooth anyway? As far as I can see, my mobile doesn't have anything vaguely like this. Are only some Bluetooth phones able to do this while others can't?
(There's a 'chat' function that seems to be internet based - which I haven't used. It sends and receives texts via the mobile network as normal. When its Bluetooth is switched on it is detected correctly by other Bluetooth things. But I can't find anything that would let one sent a message/chat/text via Bluetooth.)
Is it my phone that's lacking, or have I missed something obvious?
Nobody expects... to recieve a four DVD Python boxed set...!
Um... if you've got six and a half grand to spare to spend, surely a rubber doll is the last thing you actually need...?
And this bit seems a bit concerning...
# Elastic - flesh can withstand over 300% elongation
# Heat Resistant - can withstand over 300 degrees heat
Come on, there's rough sex, and then there's rough sex!
Well, I have to admit to mild astonishment. Never heard of this before...
Does she position herself upright when astride you, or does she lean forward? The difference in positions makes a big difference to where the sensations are for her (and for you too for that matter). I've found that, in my experience, more women prefer the feelings they get from leaning forward.
Maybe give that a try?
Sooner or later, someone is going to mention Captain Pugwash and his crew...
Damn! I just have.
What about a pulsating possum?
Wiggling weasel?
Oh, it's got silly now...
KnobbieWilliams?
KnobbieRobbie?
OK... a related question...
I use the "full fat" version of Mozilla (v1.6 to be precise) and I would have thought, if anything, it should have been slower than the supposedely "streamlined" Firefox version.
But I've never had any complaints with it. It's as fast a weasel on speed and rollerskates.
Why is Firefox slower? Is it slow doing everything, or just certain things? (What?)
Sounds like a fine plan... but alas, I won't be able to make this date. Ah well.
Hope it's much fun, and let me know if another date is planned sometime.

Right, let's think for a moment... cracks knuckles and begins to type...
I Touch Myself
The DeVinyls(gotta be amongst the sexiest song lyrics ever)
Get It On
Marc Bolan/T-Rex
Down, Down (which continues 'deeper and down')
Status Quo(not sexy at all, but it amused me...!)
Peaches
The Stranglers
Beat Me Senseless
The Circle Jerks (no, I'm not kidding, that one's real!)
All I Want To Do Is Make Love to You
Heart
And... almost anything by Alice Cooper, and almost anything by Transvision Vamp (someone else must remember Wendy James, surely?)
I could easily go on... and on.... and on.... !
(But I won't, you'll be pleased to know!)
I'm going to be the through the whole weekend, exhibiting and demonstrating. So if anyone wants to stop by and say hi (and who knows, you might even see something you'd like...!) by all means do so...
PM for details...
