Well, yes those threads were discussed, in line with the discussion in the thread itself. For the thread to be locked, only admin has the capability of doing that. I haven't looked at the thread yet (came to this thread first to report in).

Had a great time, finally meeting Clifford Reichlin and tuapekastar. A lot of laughter, stories and some ales inbibed. Thanks to all who were able to come.

IainF and I were particularly hungry by that point, tuapekastar. Was able to catch up with IainF for a quick breakfast this morning.

I guess others have noticed that JohnK and thadocta have both disappeared since the turbulence a few days ago? Anyone know what's going on?

Dave is not overly prolific at AFF. He spreads himself over a few other boards as well, and has some strange work shifts, so his presence can be quite sporadic.

I had no noticed JohnK's absence, but now you mention it ...

JohnK is, as far as I am aware in Adelaide this week, so maybe isn't getting much time to post.

Apologies for my delay in thanking you all for making the time to meet on Monday evening. It was fantastic to finally get to meet Lindsay, serfty, IanF, Mwenezi and tuapekastar. You guys really do live and breathe the stuff and I am in awe of your knowledge and - more importantly- your willingness to share.

I think we should make this a regular event!

BTW: Regarding the "turbulence": I thought it was best to step in quickly and lock that forum as I didn't want things to get out of hand. We may disagree with other AFFs - and thats healthy cos it keeps the community dynamic - but lets try not to get too personal

I agree entirely, and while I understand that this event was probably just taking advantage of people being in the right place at the right time, for some of us that would need to travel from Perth/manipulate our travel to be in the right city, it would be nice if more notice could be given. But I understand that this may not be possible.....

Strange? You call 1400-0200 strange? How about 1600-0400? Or even something really weird like 0700-1900?

I just do as I am told.... :roll:

Yep. Anything other than 0800-1700 is strange. Hang on a moment, I must be just as strange .
