"It's life, Jim, but not as we know it" (memorable quote from 'Star Trek')

Judging by the paucity of postings (of interest) on here of recent, it would seem that 'The Forum' as we had known it over the past several years is (sadly) a thing of the past.

While I will probably still 'lurk', I will make this (again probably) final posting to say 'thanks and farewell' to all of the good friends and acquaintances I have met during recent years through involvement with the Dualers' Forum, including Chirasin, Ollie, Richard (Ska'd) & Loraine, Jeanette, Helen, Mishi, Pam (PAM - those were the days/nights [on the forum!!]) and others whose names have slipped from my memory....and of course Tracy/Red, without whom much of this would not have been possible.

I'm going to see Si and his R&B Band at Bromley CIU on Friday, if anyone else is going along....

Nice one, Clive R.

Indeed, strangely enough i came across Tyber's b/day story the other day ;o) those were, indeed, the days.

Counting down the days (

Clive, I think much of the lack of Forum posts can be attributed to Facebook. A great many people use Facebook for all sorts of contacts - some of interest but mostly questionable content.

From The Dualers perspective, they need to ensure communication is effective and Facebook is a way of reaching a large audience. Unfortunately that means that discussions that used to be posted here now take place there instead. A great shame.

My recollection is the live links to your SOLAR Radio show when we used to communicate with you while you were on air and The Dualers almost always got a mention.

Hope to see you around somewhere Clive.

Best regards and love to Barbara x

Thanks for the info, Richard - I do have a Facebook page, but only visit it occasionally, though I have found it useful for linking up with music and sports contacts - but have never thought of it as a means of 'conversation'....must be an age thing!!
