Awwww!!!!
Happy anniversary!!!!
lol
time flies when you are having fun !
here have a piece of Whole Nut
yes
actually i was trying to rediscover my lost running self
still looking for it tbh
discovered a new hobby tho ...Obsessive Forum Posting
How do you know? Did the Queen send you a telegram?Well done
Any choccie going spare??
*munches on whole nut and nods appreciatively, keen to hear what the old timer had to say*
Ok Buney!
Any real world friends made from the forum?
Anyone gone that you miss?
Any newbies that you like?
What was your best and qworst memory of the forum threads?
Will yuo stay another 5 years?
lol-ive met a few people and everyone i have met has been lovely and they are all virtually mates - Benz would probably be one of my oldest forum buddies
a few have gone or arent around much -Sass, Evil Pixie Alan - we were the original late night 'FFFers
lots of interesting newbies all the time and it is fun to watch how people come along and develop new forum roles
best - all the late night shifts on FFF threads on Health and Injury and sometimes the Darkside on the old URUFWUKER (pre Clubhouse)
worst - there have been a few times when there have been personal attacks going on that were beyond ribbing
will i stay another 5 years ...well unless i get a real life
i nearly decided it was time to leave recently (im not running at all and havent managed to string much together - i just tend to swim gym and play hockey these days) but i do enjoy this community(and i am still interested in fitness ) - because it is so diverse and at times normal and the majority of people are nice decent intelligent people and in that respect it is a more interesting a place than a lot of other forums or chat areas
i just knew it was around 5years and checked on a previous thread and realised i had first posted it exactly 5 years ago
just click on your details and my forum ..my first post was my own thread surprisingly
Yes Buney I would agree - I have seen some really nasty forums where people think it's ok to just, well be nasty, to anyone they feel like.
Ok one last question, as a blow-in myself - I never found out what FFF stands for and always meant to ask!
Triple F was something like Fun Fit Folk and i was a daily thread on H&I - i think it originally strarted as a weight loss support thread
one night we went for 1000 posts on the days thread!
Benzy (Plodding Hippo ) will remember - we used to have virtual singalongs -it was fun and a lot of support thru some low times too if im honest
i think there are less people around as much these days -it seems very quiet in comparison
RW should have one of those see how many people are online gadgets
Well thank you very much Buney.
From this reporter it's back to the newsroom...
lol
you at work CRB?
yep! Last night of the week... roll on 7am!
Need to try and get a long run in this week at some point - Dublin mara is in 3 weeks-ish
aah
Marafuns
is PH doing Dublin this year ? its a good one isnt it ..and on a Monday?
I don't think PH is - at least she didn't say so - but Mouse is..
It's on the Monday, yep - dunno if it's considered a good one by other people cos apart from Barcelona (once) Dublin is the only marathon I've ever run... Kinda never thought of travelling to other ones till this year. It's reasonably flat and usually gets a lot of support though and there's always a p*ss up to be had after!
sounds like good craic !
what was Barcelona like ? hot?
oh you better believe it! It was REALLY hot! there were a couple of piles of puke on the road where it had got to people - that was within the first 10K! Couldn't deal with that kind of heat at all.. Had a very bad marathon personally, although the course and the road surfaces were great. The course went by a lot of the tourist type places that you'd want to see. And the place itself was lovely! I have pics from Barca on my FB page if you wanna take a look - but none from the actual race unfortunately... only 4 of us went and we were all running so no pics of the actual race..
I'd go back again any day but I think we're going for Rome this March..
I think ive been here a teesny bit longet than you buney
but not by much
Benzy old buddy !!!
mwah!!
Wipes away a tiny tear
Remember new years eve on here?
and the singlalongs--aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
5 years Buney!
