....I'm back!

Okay, I'll be back properly next week, subject to BT connecting a new broadband connection properly for us (never, ever use TalkTalk because you won't be able to TalkTalk ).

Sick leave is over, and the forum will never be the same again!

Cannot believe I still hold the top spot for posters! I see that sneaky Barnacle is trying to catch up but now that I'm back, well he's got no chance of catching me!

And he hates smilies

I hope you've all been good in my absence?

Has anything exciting happened or have you all just been waiting for me?

Did you even notice I was gone?

With luck and a following wind, and Mrs Stan in a good mood (I'll take one for the team <shudder> ) I might even have Project Jigsaw back on the road this year!

I hope life has been good to you all, I think I've taken all your bad luck, trust me, it's been one thing after another, but I just keep telling myself "Fight or Die" and keep going.....like a bad penny

Glad to be back "home" after such a long absence, look forward to the craic again,

Cheers,

Stan

By The Lord Harry! Welcome back young man!

Thank you james, and nice to see you still haven't changed your signature, although with him becoming Dr Who it could be a bit weird!

Thank you

Miracles do happen

Welcome back

Great news, welcome back !

Welcome back Mr Stan.

Sorry, do we know you?

Awesome!!!! Welcome back

Stan, that's great news. Delighted for you both.

If you are at a loose end, you have an answerphone message from me from a few months ago you could always bother returning

..... and an email from myself

Stan who?

Good to have you back Stan

And even better to hear Mrs Stan is still around. I think I've missed her more than I've missed you

Welcome back, which roads do I need to avoid again?

Great to see you back Stan!

Hi new boy.

If you can get a round of tea's and coffee's in that would be great. We also need some glass nails, a long weight and some tartan paint please

Hello Stan! Welcome back & Happy New year.

Hello Stan. Welcome back Good news for the forum

Nice to you back Stan.

Now get your team in the ff1 league.

good to have you back Stan

Kinell!! Eat yo' heart out, Phoenix

We've spent all this time trying to make the forum more sensible and moderated, now you have to come and spoil it all

Well a few coops have changed hands, bitten the dust or had major heart surgery since your last missive, patch has been sowing his wild oats grass seeds in several fictional countries, and a guy has sneezed into a trombone during a church concert.

No, no; I've got these voices in my head...Admin error.....admin error......admin error.....


Oh and a warm welcome back fella!

Thank $DEITY$ for that - I was dreading the flak I'd get if I ever overtook your count!

Ooh I nearly thought Neil had used a bad word there

As if, Simon, as if...

Welcome Stan, but surely your count should start from scratch?????

Welcome back stan

There is very reminiscent of a certain scene out of oceans 13, have you read all the letters Reuben?

Also very good to hear you still have project jigsaw.

Welcome back, Stan.

Ha, I actually forum-stalked you yesterday to try and find out what you were up to!

Glad to see you back on the forum!!
