Yes, of course!
We tried to set up a CU site and forum, but nobody visited it, so WELCOME! :wink: :D
Once again I emerge from beneath a massive pile of paper which makes my desk groan to bring you the world’s most amazing posts.

I don't believe any of these new members are real. Iain, stop making it all up. ;)

The way things are going, we'll soon have messages here from Julian, Roger and Oli... (and maybe even Lucy!)

Hiya Mark :)

I heard you wrote some star trek episode or something.

Is that true then?

Anything to get the amout of messages up! ;-)

It reminds me off the early days of http://www.theyfuckyouatthedrivethru.com when I created about 8 fathom posters and had them chatting to eachother to make the board seem more alive than it was and thus encourage other "real" people to post. It actually worked quite well! Although having the site come up in the top 3 terms to "fuck you" on AOL search helped somewhat as well! Pretty it didn't stay longer in the high searches :(

Ello mate

Moved from Easington to an equally manky one-horse village about 5 miles away but yes.

How's it going with you

Nothing wrong with a one-horse village - providing the horse is yours...

Life's, well, quiet. Live in Surrey, work in West London, mortgage, one kid and wondering what the hell happened to the last five years of my life.

Pretty much the usual really, only with less booze.

Do you ever get down South at all these days?

I haven't been down for absolutely ages m8.

Used to get down quite a lot, used to got see Nige for the odd weekend, but circumstances got in the way and I let things slip, which is one of many big regrets lol.

But if you know of any big old-bunch get-togethers coming along, give me a shout - it's a habit I wouldn't mind getting back into.

On the subject of mortgage and kids - is this the same Mark Patterson?

Kidding m8, good on ya, it's called a life and I'm insanely jealous!

Bloody hell - eight months to reply. That's almost a new record for me.
