Re: How much would you miss BE
BE has seen me through Single/Maybe/Going/Father/Landed/Married/Everything Else, If it was to disappear it would put a big hole in my cyberlife ... Yeh, it is a big world out there but so what without a shared history and connections?
, for me its a little piece of being 'at home', its been there for the ups and downs, it probably knows more about me than most people, and i have been friends with it for years and years

...elderly aunty Poll, I visit when I can, dish out cash, pressies, mobile phones, end-of-year-party costumes, batteries for small furry toys,,,, get ridiculed for occasional (pretend) amnesia and stupidity....but they miss me dreadfully when I come back here, and they follow me with comments about how much they appreciate me, " and by the way Aunty Poll these are all the things we forgot we wanted while you were here
"New there was summit I had to pick up from IGA

Re: How much would you miss BE
I confess I genuinely enjoy the debates and have made quite a few friends on BE. It's nice to have some of the Oracles of immigration advice, accounting etc at my finger tips. Shocked at myself for also enjoying the rare slanging match - clearly i'd have been knitting by the guillotines during the French revolution. I would probably have done a degree in astrophysics or translated War and Peace into Urdu if I didn't waste so much time on here but hey ho ...

Re: How much would you miss BE
I've been away for a good while now.
It was tough at first, I used methadone, then patches. Now I feel I can pop my head in without the need to post.
It's a slow process but the weekly meetings & counselling help.
3, I mean The Squire ... *coughs* ...
