A HUGE thanks to Bearded Bloke !

[Nicos]

Just to let you know that, due to other commitments, Bearded Bloke has sadly had to step down as one of our Mods.

We'd like to thank him for all the time and dedication he has put into this forum to help make it the place we all love and enjoy being part of.

Also his humour behind the scenes!!!

We very much hope he'll come back to join us as a mod some time in the future but will still enjoy and look forward to his continued posting as a non-mod.

Thanks mate- we didn't want your standing down to go un-noticed.
I'm sure everyone would also like to pass on their gratitude for all the extra hours he's put in over the years.

As yet we have no plans to replace him ( who could??? )

Ta muchly Bernie x

Well said

[mothhawk]

Thanks BB for all the hard and un-serenaded work you've put in as a Mod. We couldn't have had a more fair and balanced arbitrator keeping us all in order. Much appreciated. You've set the standard for all future mods, I think.

[Greenleaves]

As much as we will all miss BB's wit behind the scenes, I am sure he will be still planting those ear worms with his eclectic taste in music. I will sum BB up in 3 F's

Fun
Fair
Furry

Thanks Bud

Such a shame to loose a great Mod, VC will need two pointy sticks now.

Thanks BB I look forward to your return when you have more time.

Such a sad day We'll miss you and your fun matey. You have been a fantastic Mod and you will be missed. Pop in when you can and don't loose touch xx

[Nannysally99]

Aww, that's sad BB. Thanks for all your hard work

[bearded bloke]

Thanks all for your kind words & thoughts. It's been a pleasure modding here & it seems odd not having 'buttons', you never know, once I get myself sorted out with current & probable upcoming commitments, I may rise like a pheonix from the ashes In the meantime I shall still be around & posting whenever I can, you can't get rid of me that easy

Thanks to Admin & The Mod' Squad for letting me play behind the curtains it's variously been fun, interesting & sometimes frustrating, but I'm glad to have been there.

OK, now I'm not part of the 'main act' how about getting your balls of string out, see where this leads you & please post links ....

BB is AFK............

This'll bring your smile back SP .........

That just about sums up being a MoD and it won't be the same without you making us smile BB.

Cheers Bren I appreciate that Will see how 'things' go over the next few months

[Lumpy]

Oh no we have lost the great hairy one as a mod.

Ta BB for the advice, laughs and sometimes iffy music.

I am sure all of the above will carry on as normal.

A little gift to say Thank You!
