Right, I'm feeling all sentimental so you lot get lumbered with my musings as Trev's doing the washing up and has heard this all before anyway.

I like this place for a number of reasons -
  • BP hangs out with us ('nuff said - even though he calls us "knuckleheads"
  • This place isn't clique-y (or has none that I know of) - newbies, and dare I say it, women, can come in here and feel right at home.
  • Speaking of women, you lot treat us with respect and credit us with having brains, which is nice :)
  • Nobody "pounces" on anyone here - partly due to lack of clique-yness and the large male %age of this forum - nice to get away from the "bitch" factor that has put me off one of my favourite forums recently.
  • It just feels comfy - and as like home as a forum can feel :)

Right, said my piece now, got that out of my system :D

I'll go do some ironing, or dusting or something :p
 
Nicely put, Azzy! This is (once again) a comfortable place to kick up your heels and get to know your fellow EB players, as well as a few non-owners (present party included...briefly). :cool:

Am working on it, as soon as I can decide on a colour! :p The saving has, however commenced :D

Hope to join these hallowed ranks before the end of the year - if I can wait that long!
 
Azzy, this place wouldn't be the same without you. I feel like we've scared a few women away in the past. This place is soooo much cooler with females around. Too much testosterone is not a good thing!

thanks for the comments azzy...I am glad that we all are behaving better and are making this a more comfortable place for women.

I feel prodded. :)



I also feel comfy here - like we're all friends.
 
I also have to say that this is the forum where I feel most at home. It's all comfy here. I find that I hardly look at the other forums that I used to peruse. So a big pat on the back from this newbie.
