I came second in a Megazine short story competition ten years ago and have been coasting off it ever since.
Thought I should say Hi.
Why can't everybody just, y'know, be friends and everything? ... and uh ... And love each other!

Hi, welcome enjoy the banter
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

Today marks one year since I registered here.

For so long I was barely aware that this place even existed.
So much I missed!
I arrived just as Colin's grand tourneys were coming to a close.
So many of the legendary boarders had already departed or disappeared.
Searching back through the strata of older posts, I dimly perceive the primeval days when heroes battled with trolls and tricksters on an as-yet unformed forum.
The world has cooled since those times.

But for all that, I'm glad I signed on.

Catchphrases!
Custard creams!
Whizz-Kids vs. Chip-ites!
Byelorussian print cartridges!
And of course the nail-biting drama of filling an Advent calendar.

Here's to another giddy year.

Seems like only yesterday  :D
This Forum is a unique little space on the inter-mah-nets and you definitely have what it takes to be described as one of the valued Squaxx.
As others have posted before me, your input is appreciated.
Keep up the subversive and amusing good work!

Thank you kindly, Linc – and all who expressed their good wishes.
A little encouragement is a dangerous thing.
