I guess people will always come and go on internet forums. But thought it would be good to have a thread to ask those we miss to come back...
Many will not visit here any more for their own good reasons, but some might pass by and be pleased to see they are remembered?
Over to you. :)
Thank you, Max.... swift reply, I hope you noticed.... ::)
MARLEY FARLEY, WHERE THE BLAZES ARE YOU!!!!!
Dibs is fine, just a busy bee, and will be back as soon as she's booted her son off the computer....apparently it could take a while, he's surgically bonded to it.......
Yes ..... ;D......Would be nice to hear from Old Friends Again ...
SO COME ON ;)
I have decided just to agree with everything that has been said ...
Ina? :-\
Yes that's right, now that you mention it EJ! Where is Ina? It is unusual for her not to be on the board. You always feel concern that people are okay and doing alright in their life. busy_lizzie
Well, just to add for those who aren't here...cos I was not for a while and still find it difficult to be as 'here' as I used to be...
As an 'on and offer' (not thu choice but circs), LOVE being 'wanted' here and appreciate everyone so much I can't say (pass Kleenex please) .
Don't have an answer apart from to say going can have good reasons, and one will come back. Sorry not to be that helpful but is one poster's view.
If only we could all have free broadband!
Happy New Year!
CLx
Ina - I know - is still with us in spirit.
I would like to suggest a few names - at least 6 - but it could well be an embarassment?
Yes.......
My Friend Ruud!!! ???
I know Ruud is well as we chat. I think it is more a case of seasonal hectic diaries! :D
EJ ;)
Thanks....Nice to hear he is Fine 8)
Eileen's back (see thread). Computer problems !
Bupster!! Where's Bupster!! Had a message a while back, but nothing since.. :(
Just to avoid any such searches in the future - as if you'd notice! - I've written into my 'what if' arrangements that you'll be amongst the important folk to be informed. Can't do more?
But don't wait up for it - I'm enjoying my time here!!
Quite right Tim! We expect another 15 years from you at least. :D busy_lizzie
UC, I sent Bupster an email on her B'day, but no reply yet. I'd guess she's just busy with Chrimbo, drinking and watching crap TV with her family like the rest of us, hic! ;D I agree with what she said in November, about it being too cold to go on the allotment... :D But I've never been sensible! :-[
I'm sure she'll turn up when the sun warms up again. :D
Thanks Mutant.. :-\ ;)
MISSING - AIKEN
LAST KNOWN SIGHTING - ON THE FLOOR AT THE PANTO
Where is he? Wards have you thwacked him? Put him in a bucket or someat?? Put the poor man down, and let him post...
Doh!! Yes, cos....sorry, forgot, bless him...
How weird. I haven't been here for ages, thought I'd just take a little peek and wouldn't you know, just two days ago my name was mentioned. I'm flattered.
What can I say? The truth.......... I got a bit bored with the board, sorry.
I'm not contributing anymore and the few times I did come here it was to look things up using the search function.
My appologies, I thought no one would notice if I disapeared into the sunset. I am doing great, no worries.
If these winter storms continue I may try for a come-back with a veggie quiz hahaha.
Ina I know what you mean,
From having my big space of years, to being in another shorter term rented garden I feel I don't have much to offfer here any more, but I think we achieved a lot here since March and so it does go on, just not in way most do it.
Anyway, love having these guys around - hope you can put up with us pretentious little so-and sos~!
TIM I HOPE I AM ON YOUR LIST!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!
CLxxx
Beer Belly! Whatever happened to that blue faced boy from your neck of the woods Ina?
Yep I had (dare I say it) missed Aiken too............................thought he might be sulking coz his bum looked too big in my dress ;)
Ina ;) ;D ;D ;D
Great to Hear from you......Hello 8)
Hey Ina, nice to see you!
Delilah, I'm expecting Aiken to crash land around Jan 3rd, this is just an estimate I hasten to add....I'll have the landing strip ready, if you could get all the emergency gear polished, that would be great... 8)
Emergency vehicles in position and awaiting crash landing............................may God help us ;D
I expect to see you back when the weather improves and we all start growing again Ina. Most of us on here are just marking time with irrelevant fun posts in the Shed and generally just getting on other people's nerves ;D.
Shut up Ady.
Just kidding ;)

agreed with Gavin, he hasnt updated his site for many months
I wonder, redclanger, if this is the right way to find "missing people".
Everybody (WHO IS A A4A MEMER!!!!) can see the names and information at the members list .
People have their own reasons to come and go on the board.
I can tell you about 16 people who have not visit this board for months, but to put their names and E MAIL on for everybody ( GUESTS) is not fair. I think.
we can all see this information anyway, we just click on their names..., so posting isnt really giving anything away.

Only if you are an A4A member, Adam. If you're a guest, you cannot access any of those things.
Do we get many people who just come to look at the site to rob email addresses though??
Sorry - wasn't aware guests (it is free and very easy to join though) couldn't see it as I am permanently logged in. Amended accordingly.
Hi, I havn't posted for a long time - change of job, etc, but my New Year's Res. is to get out more and that means on to the allotment. Ventured up there today and found 42 mole hills >:(
Ashamed to say only leeks, carrots and sprouting broc can be found. But still I walked around and made a plan.
That's the main thing; sit down and make a plan, then try to carry it through. My plot hasn't got anything apart from leeks either, due to illness last year. But I've dug what I planned to, got onions and garlic in, and ordered my seeds for the spring. So I'm not complaining too much.
Haven't seen Heldi atall over the Christmas Hols........................maybe she'll return soon :)
I have not been visiting for a while.
As everyone possibly knows : I am sailing the river Lea and PC not in place on our boat yet.
I would like to wish everyone on A4A a very happy new year, full of wealth and health.
Take care all !! ;D :D ;)
Hey Marianne! Nice to see you, matey, hope it's all going swimmingly.. ;D....well, not swimmingly, cos that would be a bad sign...hope your feet are dry and you're having a wonderful time!!!
Hiya Lottie ! Hope you had a lovely Christmas. I am fine thanks, doing things on the boat, or should I say TO the boat ;) :-X ::) ::)
All is well and I am back at work (hence I can now use the internet again) ;D Wishing you all the very best for 2006.
Marian
XX
Aww you too, matey. :-*

What do you mean heary, I have no idea what you are talking about.

Pretty sure Aiken is already a member here under a different name .. .. >:( ???
It's not Dingledong (Don't Ask!) is it??
I don't think I will name names in case I am completely wrong + I don't want to get flamed but I still think Aiken is an already regular/established member who was posting more under that name.
This time last night I was sitting in the Shaftsbury Theatre watching High Society now I'm stuck infront of the box with OH watching 'cops' on Bravo or something ... <sigh>
(http://www.uploadit.org/lagoonandcastle/bln.gif) oops sorry hehehe
Sounds a bit intriguing. I shall persuade my pet detective to get to work
(http://www.gifs.net/Animation11/Jobs_and_People/Spies_and_Investigators/Sherlock_holmes.gif)
But he's Aiken!! I just can't see him doing the pseudonym thing, he couldn't help hisself, he'd come out going yaboo, fooled ya? I would, I'd be giggling twit by now... ;D
Are you Aiken in disguise?
Curiouser and curiouser:o
Delilah..... Bit off thread but we are in the shed. Just looked at your signature and I disagree cos I am perfect ::) ::) ::)
OOOOOooooooo, yet you Lorna ;D ;) :D
Erm...have you seen Heldi, today...... :-X could be cunning disguise.... :-X
Hey all :) Just got back from Christmas and still catching up with emails (sorry mutanthobbit, I'm crap :-[). Should be around a bit more from now on :D
Hey Bupster!!! Happy New year and all that!! Great to see you! ;D
to see you nice ................. ;D ;D ;D
Wey hey, its the Bupster - Are you Aiken in disguise?
PS I went to the toilet today after outdoor PE -it was very cold. I looked down and noticed I had a missing...
Alright, I won't go there ;D ;D ;D ;D
Bupster! About time too. You've missed so much, or so little, depending upon your penchant for the absurd. BTW, we have a place for your photo now.... :)
I noticed that. Will I get away with saying use my avatar?
As long as you stick around this time (we need some cheering up) - I suppose so... :-\
I'm not Aiken by the way.
Nor I.
Fairly sure that I'm not, but I'll check.

Hey Bupster, glad to see you back in the madhouse. No worries on the e-mail thingy. :D Nope, I don't see why if a photograph of me in a skirt was inflicted on the world, that an avatar should be adequate >:( ;D ;D ;D
Quite a sight for the unsuspecting! :o
Dave
Damnation. Will try to find a photo of self and a scanner. Bah.
