Good Morning + what are you up to today and how is your weather

morning all
nice and sunny this morning hope it lasts

when Mal eventually returns he's gonna find it very amusing or not reading all our comments but it's only cos we care

17°C and sunny in North Herts

morning all
and the suns out again

Bit gloomy here but still 17°C.

3.30AM and its 24C already but I think the biting insects are out at the moment if I go out too early for dog walkin or too late in the evening I get bitten by these invisible things!

morning all
back to damp weather

Still gloomy here bit cooler at 14°C.

33 C tops today here

did anyone notice the statement extreme top ? "503 service temp unavailable" ? and just another cryptic thought - if Mal has a long immovable illness or whatever this site could just go on for an undeterminate period of time? - can anyone with superior knowledge confirm or deny? in which case someone may need to attempt control of some sort?

morning all
after a awful thunderstorm the suns out

This is a Free Forum hosted by Forumotion. They do it free in return for being allowed to pollute it with adverts - which in fairness have not been too intrusive.

The Forum will be registered in Malcolm's name and Email address - which of course we don't know. Hence it will be impossible to ask Malcolm to transfer it to another "owner" with the name Murgatroyds to retain all the old data.

It would be highly unusual for them to do this if asked by a third party (if there was someone willing to take on the chore). I also know, from being a mod here for a short while (before I resigned in protest at Malc booting out andsome and the pig) that Forumotion had been getting grumpy with Murgs because of the low/reducing membership and minimal posting rate. Hence I consider they would take the opportunity of declining any request to host a new Murgs - or any other name we tried to hide behind.

I also guess we lack a member who would be willing to take it on anyway. I wouldn't.

fair comments alan - some have tried to revitalize the site and attract new members but to no real substantial results. when I first joined as alan will attest it was a lively and interestin little site. I suppose it is simple now in the laps of the Gods until it suddenly disappears or regains momentum?? and atm none of us are making any substantial regular contributions [ no criticisms intended just the truth] 

just trot along and see how many contributions have been made by a character davo with no continued responses etc - the current memberships imo is an unsustainable one? even if Malcolm comes back? there is nothing wrong with the site it's just been jinxed!

After I first joined I brought in 4 new members. 

Andsome was banned for simply complaining about site management matters, the pig resigned about andsome's unfair treatment as did myself but I came back recently after Davo prodded me, one has died and the other two, including the 2022 recruit, no longer attend because they feel the place is boring and their posts attracted little response (other than from me)

The writing is on the wall I'm afraid
