Re: Forum Topics.
... and only one administrator to delete a topic because it's stupid, in wrong forum, off-topic, irrelevant, badly written, libellous, wasting data storage, .. so watch it!! (not your's, of course)
I think snow is coming your way this morning, so get your car out and post a nice photo of it in the snow instead of staring at a computer.

Thank you for the most hilarious, and brilliant, post that I've ever encountered, on any topic, or Forum, anywhere. A lovely bit of Christmas joy!
I could comply with the definitation of Lurker, by posting on a topic more than 6 months old, but usually because I was on holiday when the topic was first created, or because I was indisposed, or for some other reason, and failed to check the date of creation.
I have also fallen in to the trap of posting on a thread unaware that it is already more than one page long, so that the post is invariably quite out of date and irrelevant, and therefore idiotic if not hilarious also. How do so many posts appear on some topics within less than 24 hours from my last visit?
Still chuckling, thank you.
Cheers
Geoff
