I knew it >:(

I knew I would miss it :(

I love my kids and my husband, but did they have to want to be fed and entertained tonight??

Welcome Grinner and all the othernewcomers who joined tonight ;D.  I am a fairly recent addition to the site myself, but I love it...everyone is really friendly and unbelievably helpful.  I hope you have as much fun and success as I have :D

Regards

I notice that Grinner still hasn't posted anything  ???  All that excitement and he's not been back since his 2 minutes and 4 seconds on-line after he joined up.  Has anyone sent him a PM to congratulate him or did we scare him off with all the fanfare? ;)

I sent him a PM inviting him to look at this thread, at the time he was on air.

That must have scared him/her off!

I quite liked the colours last time.  If they're too bright for you Annie, can I suggest dark glasses or taking more water with it to avoid the hangover ;)

How about making it 10,000 Rootschatters who've actually posted.  It's a sad fact that almost 11,000 of the 20,000 registered Rootschatters have, like Grinner, never actually posted on a board :o

If the colours weren't macho enough for you we can make them Khaki and Brown next time so that you'll feel at home by pretending you're at the GWF   ;)

Anyway, whats all the fuss?  I thought you said you didn't want any more statistics  :P
