Did she just "retire" or was there more to it? I found her immigration advice very helpful many years ago when I lurked here.

The only person to answer that should be Mo herself. I will say though that it was a sad day for all the mod crew but because we cared all we could do was wave her farewell & let her go free, just as we have with several wonderful mods down through the years.

It was a very different BE when the above members were around. Tears of laughter often ran down my face. I also miss the old Leslie.

There are a handful of members who I was glad to see the back off...but I will keep the names to myself.
Bless you

I often wonder about many of my old BE mates. Some like footiechick who I know never made the move, some like mcmercer who came and then went home, mlbonner who came and then vanished, and soooooo many others who just don't post now. Would like to track down the Dagboys too....wonder how their kids grew up, they were two cute -if troublesome-boys !

Dags are great. The boys are at Uni, very bright doing double degrees in Sciences. Rob and Eddie still madly in love and mad.

There's a strong tendency for some members of BE to attack the source of information. Just as they say, 'a different person when he gets behind the wheel of a car', it seems like internet forums bring out a certain 'attack' personality that is otherwise hidden. I've seen way too many vicious attacks on people offering excellent information on this forum, and I know it ultimately takes its toll. I got such awesome help from Kaffy, and Mo, and others on a diverse array of topics. It's so sad that they felt motivated to leave. Really is quite sad.

Thanks for that! Those boys were a handful but they always seemed very bright, thought they'd do well one day Good to know they're all doing well
