    Hello MSE Sue


    Welcome to the MSE site and especially the 'Old Style' board.:j

    I think it would be very difficult to give name checks and credit members for the tips.........there are so many members posting helpful tips in here.

    My suggestion would be to give credit to the board guides on 'Old Style'. It is the hard work of arkonite_babe, pink-winged and squeaky that keeps this board in good order.;)

    I'm delighted with this news and look forward to getting my copy of the MSE Old Style book.

    Kind Regards

    Glad for the enthusiam, though i thought i'd temper it a little. The book won't be out for at least a year.... these things take a long time.

    Plenty of time to save up our Pin Money to buy it then!

    I'm really looking forward to it. However, at least we know in advance to stock up on bicarb, vinegar etc etc! :D

    I totaly agree but waht about Cathy who started OS & was the first board guide & has since retired? Where would it all end?

    Can't wait for the book though, but as a committed Old Styler should I just get it out of the libriary or look for the tips on here for free rather than splash out the cash...he he:D

    Great idea - so many tips and so much wisdom on this board which could save people so much time and money.

    Especially in view of tonight's renewed discussion about OS while working full time maybe sections dedicated to OS for workers, families etc. would be good - it'll be interesting to see how the book is collated.
