Not a really a farewell but...

Hi everyone...

It's been quite some time since my last post. And even those last posts were very sparse.

I guess that, after having made 1500 posts in about six months, I felt that I hadn't much things left to say.

So, quite naturally, I ended up not posting anymore, or only very little, forgetting to keep track of all those threads.

That doesn't mean I won't post anymore. In fact, I still visit the site and I'm still keeping an eye on the french forum for which I'm the moderator, although it seems a bit dead right now.

But for now, I will keep a very low profile. But I didn't want to go without a word as there's still a lot of people I care for in here.

I'd be tempted to name some members I've had some privileged contact with but I'd be too afraid to forget someone.

It's nothing to do with the evolution of this board, if there's been one. It's just me.

So take care, everyone.

And anyway, I will check this thread for the replys, and I will probably reply to those posts and maybe I'll end up posting like mad like in the old days.

But for now, as I said, I will go back to the shadows...

:cool2:

Don't walk away in silence, Busty....

Hope to have you back again when you feel like chatting. Until then, like Motel 6, we'll leave the light on for ya.

First Huntsman, then Muffy, now you Klumpy. It's very sad. I guess everything changes, and nothing good lasts.

Don't go too far Buster - will be hoping to meet up with you and Benoit in Brussels towards the end of March - and this time I will find L'Ancienne Belgique !

I guess, Patrick, the trouble is that, to keep track of the threads and what's going on, you have to give this forum a lot of time.

And, at some point, I couldn't afford to spend so much of my working time in here...

Thanks for the kind words anyway...

Well, don't worry, Sloppy : as I said, I still care for the friends I've made here and I will be happy to meet you in Brussels.

Do you have my email address ? It's here on the site anyway, very easy to find.

See you late march.

And by the way, I'll show L'Ancienne Belgique, if you want.

Klumpy, Not sure if you even know who the hell I am, but did want to reiterate that you will be missed. But by opting out of here, that doesn't mean you're going to be doing more work, does it? That sounds horrible!

Take care sir,

Iain

I remember when I first came to this place and you were just plain old Geoff Klompkes. I remember splitting my sides with laughter as dear Huntsy toyed with your name until you finally took the logical step and became Buster Klumpy. Above all I remember you as a genuinely nice man who never had a bad word to say about anyone, something which is sadly all too rare these days! Your input here will be sorely missed Geoff. I wish you good luck and happiness in whatever you do, always.

Oh my... I can't believe the kindness of the responses here...

Thank you Shug, Liv and April. Thank you too, "And you will..." - I had noticed you already. How wouldn't you with such a name.... :lol: A very good name, that is...

The thing about my work is that I wanted to check the new posts about all the time... And I love what I do for work, it's a very human place and that's too rare nowadays to be toyed with.

And a special thanks to you, Muffy. I've always been amazed by your generosity, always offering to send your goodies, always helping anyone in trouble or just with questions when you could.

Thank you all again. But don't forget, I will never totally disappear. As I said, I will be lurking in the shadows...

Busty Klumpster, I was about to send you an e-mail asking if you were still alive. I'm glad you are, and I hope you'll still take part to future threads that might interest you. We shall miss you!

Let's hope also that the release of Here to Stay will waken the French forum.

I wish you all the best in your life, and let's keep in touch.
