December 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 Ok, I know I know, I haven't been here for simply AAAGGGGESS, but there is some method to my madness. [start of quote] I've been busy. There was a flood There was an earthquake, I had some people visit from out of town, IT WASN'T MY FAULT!!! [end of quote] Alright seriously, yes it was my fault. In fact, to be honest, I haven't seen the last half of the season. I even missed Schuey winning it Why? Because I never never never watch Channel 9 [or 7 or ABC or SBS for that matter!]. So unless someone sends me an email to tell me a race is on, I always forget to turn on the idiot box. I used to subscribe to the mailing list but quickly discovered that I would receive 10 billion emails and would end up deleting them all without reading any of them, so I unsubscribed. Now of course I never know when a race is on. So, I have been slack because I AM slack, but I hope you understand. Thanks Jens, for reminding me about this site. Now if only I could receive ONE email every time a race is on, I'd be happy LOL. So please forgive me.... oh, and a bonus cookie goes to the person who can tell me where the quote above was stolen from.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

December 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 Hi Nich, no, I don't believe we've met. But it's nice to make your acquaintance. I'm a very oldie [but a goodie] from this forum. I was even active when it had a different name LOL, so how's THAT for showing my age! And yes, it IS good to be back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nichosnz 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 You will notice that Jens and myself have a lot of posts. That is because for a while we were the only regular active posters, then daz returned and rodders47 showed up so there has been 4 of us for a month of so, but today I notice there has been 9 of us. I hope you guys all hang around. PLEASE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TotalF1 Jens 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 Hey December, great to hear from you, I think its been about 10 months?? Member number 4, I wonder who is number 1, probably Wez the boss.. Even I am just member 27! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nichosnz 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 Four is a good number Prost was a champion 4 times, MS won the DWC in his 4th (full) year at Ferrari. But Wez goes by 'admin' now who is member number 140. But 'TotalF1 Wez' is member number 2. I don't think there is a member number 1, I did a search by join date the top three in the list are 'TotalF1 Wez' (2), Kingly (3) and December (4). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TotalF1 Jens 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 Odd, maybe the forum takes number one for itself.. ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nichosnz 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2002 I hadn't thought of that Jens, I figured Wez used it setting up the forum then deleted it, somthine like a test user. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
admin 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2002 Howdy Yeah, user #1 was the original admin account for the old software Ikonboard, but I blew it away when I upgraded to this Invision Board. Oh and good to see you back December, how are things? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TotalF1 Jens 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2002 This is mainly the reason I thought bringing back the Cafe was a good idea, it really is a good forum for fun topics like these Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nichosnz 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2002 Sometimes you have a topic that is completly not related to F1, like my one recently about the road into my valley. So we needed this to be brought back. Even if, like last time, it doesn't get used very often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sw4me 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2002 News to me, member number 4, and he goes by the name of the month of my Birth!!! cool! well I too used to browse this site since it's inception but never thought I'd have the time to talk like this. Well on a nice rainy day in Raleigh, over a hot cuppa tea set up myself for my tete-a-tete with a good theobromine(caffeine) buzz Me drinks tea---no coffee. It's been over a year now and must say has been good here. Just got myself a 27' TV for better F1 from now. Sad, though, I couldn't afford it earlier. Now I have to wait till March for the next round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
December 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2002 Jens, thanks for the update about the final race. Unfortunately I will be at a wedding during the race LOL. So it's damn typical that i will miss the final one as well :-) Also thanks for recreating the cafe, my more usual haunt lol. As for me, [in case you don't know] I'm female, and December is my REAL first name, even though I was born in February [shrug, takes all kinds] Ok, about to travel 1200km to get to this wedding so won't be back for a week. And F1Babe, LTNS!!!!!! Chat when i get back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
