PS sorry, I forgot to say I haven't seen Beryl on the boards for ages. I heard from her at Christmas time. And this weekend it is Stelly's birthday.

What you on about Sammy? Most people flit from one board to another, and dont change names to do so.

As for history and the past....what???

listen. are you all coming to the Murder Mystery on General later about 7ish?

Everyone's invited, old and new as I said on the thread. Don't be put off if you're new and don't know anyone. (By all accounts we can't tell who we know and who we don't lol) Just join in :-)

If the people on the general board are the same as on this board but using a different name it maybe because it's GR!!

There could be some history there in as much as some people want to connect to some of the past but maybe not all of it.

Not afraid of Daleks???? Exterminate!!!

I nearly hid last week when watching the first series, picture it -
black and white, using your imagination as to what had swallowed someone, what is round the corner waiting for you ...... instead of colour nowadays, all visual, and last week those little things were so sweet! aah!

Joy, I remember hiding behind the sofa as a child lol

I saw a programme or video about children today watching Dr. Who. They still hide behind the sofa. lol

One of them said that although he was scared of the monsters, he wasn't afraid of the Darleks. What is the universe coming to? lol

In answer to your question Secret Red, yes I don't 'recognise' people if they change their boardname.
A classic example - recently there was a thread like this on General, and from reading that I realised that for the last 6 months or so , 2 people who I thought were new, were people I've 'known' for years, it's just that they had changed their board names!!!


K

P.S. Much prefer Squirrel name to Rodent!!
P.P.S. Now that I know you're Lesley, I think I remember you - have you been here for years?

Hi Catherine honey.

How are you? Good to see you back.

You can call me Lesley, Squirrel or even rodent lol

Joy

Joy Report 13 Apr 2008 16:28

It was good, Lesley, yes, but, the more I think about Dr Who, the more I think that I prefer the ones from years ago. There was, for me, more suspense then and real scariness.

OMG....a year ago we all met???

Pity Hayley wasn't there too. Everyone was lovely. I haven't seen much of Beryl on the boards though. I hope she is doing fine.

Hello, Hayley.

Seeing Wilde childe reminded me of how tactful is our Christine - at the time that I was using the name Wild Child of the 60s, she asked me if I minded if she suggested the Wilde childe name to you.

Sammy I have just seen your reply (in between basting the lamb lol).

Lesley..IS secret squirrel..I was talking to her. I understood quite well that you had been confused with one of the squirrels on here...

Newby Kim is.....well....newby Kim...another lovely person, and nothing whatsoever to do with any squirrels, rats, mice hamsters, gerbils or any other creature that lurks on here LOL
