    I followed the link to the chat forums and have been stuck here ever since icon7.gif

    Your absolutely right ,it was Cathy who started OS with the permission of Martin and was the first mod on it too...................and I'm sure she is still looking in now and then

    I'm sure she would appreciate a small mention of that fact when the time comes:D

    I'm sure there are lots of us MSE'ers who have yet to discover the OS board. I've been an MSE member for almost two years now, and am ashamed to say that I only discovered the delights of this board yesterday :o

    The book idea sounds fantastic, and I shall definitely be buying a copy or three. My MSE book has been borrowed by friends and family so many times that they are all getting their own copy of the new edition for Christmas so that mine won't go walkabout ever again. With the OS book, I now have next year's pressies sorted out too!

    Hello and welcome :)

    If you need any help or a guided tour just PM me - but a good place to start is the Welcome sticky at the top of the forum. Close to the MEGA Index you've already found :)

    Hello Sue! And thanks Martin, the book is a great idea. I know what all my kids will be getting next Christmas (or possibly the one after that)! :D

    Hi Folks,

    Once the book is launched, hows about everyone going into their local library and requesting it ??

    That way each area/district etc will order a copy and the charity will get more income ??

    dont fight the system .... use it !!

    Take care

    Adbru :)
