Hi Smiley

I haven't replied to your original post as the sad death of Dusty dog's father sort of made us realise how precious life is.

Anyway, I agree with what you are saying. Gosh, I can remember the old contributers and the laughs we had -

Lol

Graham W

Lolly

Brian St Albans, (although he still posts)

Big Roy

Tina

Even the troll cris was well worth a laugh

I do miss them and their humour but I think this site has now developed into a question and answer site only with hardly any humour to it at all. Le croc brings some laughs in, but that's about all.

Shame really.

OMG Lisa ,

you are a romantic!

If it hadn't been for my two dogs I'd have gone barking mad. Their nicknames are Pinky & Perky.

Cheers

Yes, I had been away for a while, just busy doing other things.

But have noticed this last month or so there isn't the same banter/arguments as there used to be. I used to enjoy reading all the saga's even though I didn't join in. What's happened to Lord B he used to be one of the originals. Has he emirigrated or just given up. I pop on and have a look but there not a lot of movement on the pages.

You're not a disappointment Mel. LOL!

You've been on here a few years too, haven't you noticed a bit of a change recently?

Yes, there has been a drop off in the banter. (Although there were times when the banter went passed banter and got down right unpleasant.) Folks seem less inclined to chat than they used to. You're right, it is more of a question and answer forum than the social network it used to be. Bit of a loss to those of us who know s#d all about actual caravanning skills but still want to contribute!

I'm sure that there are people of wit and interest still on here. How about starting some sort of "lets get to know each other topic" and see who's out there?

I tried to start a topic about Funny Caravvanning stories a while ago starting with one of mine! No takers. Maybe it wasnt that funny except to me, maybe folk thought I was a bit mad as I had just joined the forum! I thought it would be a start. Maybe I am on the wrong track of what you mean. I agree about Le Croc, like his warped sense of humour. LOL

Hi Caroline. Sorry missed that thread. But it is the sort of thing that used to get a response.

Like the idea of the "lets get to know each other" unfortunately the OH wouldn't approve!!!

Now the boring bit, returned to caravanning two years ago after a eight year break (keep your planes). Been reading this site for 12 months or so and actually posted a couple of queries and had excellent results.

Your quote of Folks seem less inclined to chat than they used to, don't you think the whole caravan thing has gone that way anyway?

Folk don't socialise like they used to or at least that was the way I remembered it.(I ain't too old yet).

Finally you asked who's out there?

Well I have just plucked up the courage too reply and enter your

wonderful world, don't be too hard on me!!!!

Not a dissapointment Mel, I see LMH is still as jovial as ever.

Just wondered what had happened that's all.

It's just time to read posts lately. Always something needing attention or going wrong. But am trying to get on site a bit more..

I've been missing cos Herself and I have just got back from five weeks doing what caravanners are supposed to do --- Caravanning!! We've been in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, then back to France, and had a super time, but back to the real world now. Well, for a week anyway, and then we're off again for a week in LMH land....

Lisa - you wanted some jokes - well here goes

A salesman drove into a small town where a circus was in progress. A sign read: 'Don't Miss The Amazing Scotsman'. The salesman bought a ticket and sat down. There, on centre stage, was a table with three walnuts on it. Standing next to it was an old Scotsman.

Suddenly the old man lifted his kilt, whipped out a huge w***y and smashed all three walnuts with three mighty swings!

The crowd erupted in applause as the elderly Scot was carried off on the shoulders of the crowd.

Ten years later the salesman visited the same little town and saw a faded sign for the same circus and the same sign 'Don't Miss The Amazing Scotsman'. He couldn't believe the old guy was still alive much less still doing his act! He bought a ticket. Again, the centre ring was illuminated.

This time, however, instead of walnuts, three coconuts were placed on the table. The Scotsman stood before them, then suddenly lifted his kilt and shattered the coconuts with three swings of his amazing member.

The crowd went wild!

Flabbergasted, the salesman requested a meeting with him after the show.

'You're incredible!' he told the Scotsman. 'But I have to know something. You're older now, why switch from walnuts to coconuts?'

'Well laddie,' said the Scot, 'Ma eyes are nae whit they used tae be.'
