Still, its always good to be help out or amuse when possible.

I think you are being a bit pessimistic Mark, there has been loads of interesting posts, especially the projects sections, they have been an inspiration, most interesting.

I visit the forum most days and always find plenty to interest me, its a great place.

You need to stand a take a bow, or pehaps a stoop at your age.....

Abolutely. It's great to see a forum where the information received is accurate and correct. I've learnt a great deal about the earlier Minis. I thought I had a good grasp before joining the forum - how mistaken I was! lol.
I haven't posted a lot but have been lurking in the background ;)

Mark,

This forum is second to none, it is the only web site of any sort that I visit regularly.
Although I didn't contribute recently, I was checking and learning almost everyday, and I feel my modest knowledge is growing fast thanks to you all. Plus it is friendly - and good fun - even for us froggies, which is invaluable !!

It may seem quieter at the moment, but with spring already here, I guess we all try to put our car back on the road, or for those lucky - or more courageous this winter - enjoy using our Minis. For myself, these last three months also correspond to a increase in business, which is not bad even if looking still fragile ...

Thank you again, keep it going please !

Top notch Mark.

Thanks for all the kind comments folks, but how the forum runs has very little to do with me at all. Its down to the input made by the members.

I would like to thank everyone who contributes & to all those lurkers, I would say . . . Go on pop your cherry, we won't bite!

I am however locking this thread now as I never take compliments very well. . . . .

And fear that the inevitable backlash will follow soon :lol:
