Those signs Byron worked a treat...I'd still be looking for the place now had they not been there  ;D

We had to stop in the middle of Newent (which is hardly very big) complete with 23' caravan & phone Daz and CaptZok to come and guide us in;D ;D ;D ;D

This is the first that I've heard about this 'carry-on' ............

Honest :-?

Really? And nobody ever exaggerates a topic here;D ;D ;D

'course not ........... :)

I have been a member on here for just over a year and fit into the budget Omega owner catagory by a long shot.I must admit that I managed to get to Woolaton Park and The Lakes last year and didn't fell out of place with my shed on wheels not being judged or frowned upon in comparison to the rest of the OOFers that were there.I have found the forum to be more than helpful in keeping my wreck going and am more than grateful.I have also been able to help other members on this forum with my limited ability and nobody has got injured in the process! I don't know what it was like at the beginning but as many have posted things do change.I hope that things don't get too depressing as it is a very good site to visit and wish everyone all the best in the future.

Just split 'General Discussion' into two sections....
1....Anything goes...no PC, etc....any jokes, etc, etc...Do not enter if you are easily offended, religeous or habitat the moral high ground.

2....PC only, NO JOKES..no offensive language, etc, no contraversial input, no slagging off individuals etc, no racism etc
         ..................................................
All the above content is only meant as 'tongue in cheek' and not in a serious vein.........however, I have a vision in my own mind as to which section would receive the most postings ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So we agree then? I think?

I reckon a leaf out of the top gear book. They get away with it, even though Andy Grey doesn't.

So many times I have had to bite my tongue and think of the forum rather than share personal opinion, you wouldn't believe....   ::)   :-X
Oh i so wish you'd go for it, go on, both barrells. Come out to play more H, break em.  :y


Or maybe just one barell then, closely followed by the other  :)

Personally I find the moral high ground/superior/better than you contest on here very distasteful. We all breath the same air and pay the same tax IMO. Keep the finger wagging out of it...?

I know the jokes restrictions on here keeps some away, Bob Dent is missing because of it afaict. Which is a shame. Mick Dundee has gone, admins rarely come out to play anymore. Which I find worrying, if they feel they can't enjoy their own forum then we're in trouble. And it is "theirs" I don't care what anyone says, regardless of the generous oof philosophy "it's your forum" approach. yet there seems to be a queue of people telling them how to run it, moaning and giving them grief.

Maybe it's over policed a little because of that? But having not seen the forum in it's early days it's difficult to say for me.

Certainly Found the place very dull since Xmas, starting to pic up now though.

Just some general thoughts, might well be talking 'dangle berries' again for all I know. ;D

I'm still here from time to time Chris, just not as much as I used to. ;) Yes, I found it sad that when some jokes were posted that there were always those who like to shoot you down for reasons of political correctness or the like, so I just don't bother posting jokes anymore. I do however get fed up with some of the nastiness that creeps in on here sometimes when someone doesn't agree with another's opinion of something. Anyway, I've still got my Omega and a lot of friends on here so I'll be around on here for a while yet! ;)  :y

Bob, it's a bit of a tiny pic so I'm squinting, but the estate in your sig looks gorgeous.

Don't really see a problem with this place.  I don't run it, I don't contribute money to keeping it going so I don't believe I am in a position to criticise it in any way.  The advice from here is excellent, and Lee bent over backwards to help me sort out my cam cover gaskets - I owe him for that (way more than just a can of carb cleaner) and hope very soon I'll be able to put a bunce his way. 

So a big thumbs up from me.   :y
