Tea in a fine bone china cup preferably made in a teapot with tea leaves, 1 sugar and a drop of milk
or coffee very very strong in a special cup with 1 sugar, milk and a spoon of coffee mate
So either lol

cant beat it made in a tea pot and drank from a china tea cup n saucer, well obviously not drinking from the saucer
And the older the teapot the better the taste wink

As I have said on another thread, unless the leader of a political party is the candidate in your constituancy you don't actually get to vote for who is Prime Minister anyway.

That though is a complete differenet topic. That is asking if people vote for the party, leader or their local MP..
Not many people know who their local MP is.. and more often and not their voting intentions have nothing to do with who it is. They hope that they will vote with the party line.

must just be me then that thinks it looks shite and old fashioned :shock:
btw....ello sarah xxx.....ltns.....we'll have to catch up at wigan biggrin

That is because of the mass use of different colours, rounded boxs and heavy use of borders.
These are things which you will soon get used to. I think speed, else of use, functionality will be the real test..

Plus for those who need it there is a spell checker, :embarrased: at the bottom right corner when you type your post. :bounce:

I hope it it an english checker and not US .. lol could not stand seeing color etc
I am not 100% sure on it..
The skins seems very 'CBBC' now rather than 'BBC News'
There is loads of colour, a lot of space around things. The site is cleaner, but all the colour is a bit distacting. But I suppose it is one of those things that you get used to. I need to use it a lot more to see if it is more functional...
I can say though, no one can say that you have not made many changes.. lol

I like the sunshine, not too hot, with a nice gentle breeze...mmmmmmmmm!
I also like other times of the year - rain in ya face and the wind in ya hair. Running through crunchy autumn leaves. Snowy days playing with my wonderful grandchildren or late night walks on my own. Autumn by the coast is great, long walks, rugged coastline, fresh air....

Damn you sounds like you are write a love poem.. lol
Quote by GnV
Either rather than both as a preference.

Thank you for spotting that grammatical mistake smile
If I could change I would :)
This is a subject that political parties are heavily discussing at the moment.
Personalities of the leaderships of a party are important to a point. These days when people are famous for being famous, the do not have to be the best singer, actor, football or leader to be the favouriate in the publics eyes.
BUT .. it not the only reason people vote for them, I mean would the BNP be in government now if Tony Blair had been the leader. I do not think so.. Would the Libs be in power if they had Gary Linker in charge.. ?
Hi,
coffee
I just wanted to know if we are still a nation of tea drinker. I know I love my tea, and I have cups and cups of it a day smile

Maybe you are right, would be nice to have a proper explaination, for now I like the conspiracy theory lol

You messages are being scanned, read and stored by aliens ... lol They are look for earthlings that they can bred with .. hehe
I do not think it is anything generic with the forum software ther are using. I think it has been adding into the replacement table manually by some admin on the site.
Maybe using as a quick fix to solve a problem.. maybe to hide the name in all posts quickly

I did and it didnt.

Try Alex andra without the space
WOW..
Now that is some very weird word replacement going on there .. !!!
Word replacements are used often within forum applications to deal with emoticons and the such like.. Also I have seen some that automatically remove swear words
But never that word.. lol
Quote by MadMax
As it happens all the Mods and Ops as well as admin have been using it for at least a month now. We have had 200 site members also using it as well lol our (bug test user group). We then asked them to complete a survey and it seems it has been very well received wink .
You will be able to use both sites for a period of time to allow you to get used to them. We will kill the old one off in a few weeks..

Sounds great smile
As a web and database developer myself I look forward very much to seeing it :)
Quote by MadMax
LOL you should all be able to use the new site tomorrow, then we hope to have the new site messenger, and speed swing and maybe SHREP (the rep system) done early in quarter 1. Followed shortly after by the new profiles and a whole load of other goodies. It all depends on what snags we get after the new site is launched tomorrow TBH.

So are you running the 2 parallel or are you going to say bugger it lets go for a complete swap.. lol
I was thinking you could have the new site as test site to people that want to try it. You could just share the database between the 2.. Or have you completely changed the DB so the old site will not be able to use ?
Quote by MadMax
That is already being built in on the new all singing and dancing profiles that will go live in quarter 1 2010 biggrin

What can make a decent cuppa? lol
Would it not just become usless and inaccurate if only a small percentage of people use it? Only people that agree to have there information on it will be searchable, so you would be filtering out all the people that have not agreed from your search.
Would it not become more of a novelty and not really a useful tool?
I know that this is not really an activty, but do other people like the idea of having {Can Accom} {Can Travel}?
Well I have to admit I impressed myself that you are looking to improve the site..
I know I have 100s of ideas myself, but have never got around to posting them etc.. lol
Quote by Anoush
I dont see the security difference, only that it is more convenient as a map.

Swinging is not about covenience.. it is about having fun with like minded people...
I mean your map might show 100 people in your area, but does not say what their interests are, what they look like, who they are hoping to met etc. Are you saying that you are only intestested in meeting people that are under 10 miles away and are on the number 27 bus route for example?
I find it best to get to know people and them to know me. See if we click and then worry about bus routes, hotels etc after.
Maps are to help people get from A to B. They are of interested when you want to find generic things like shops, pubs, resturants, cash machines, toilets.
The colder weather is now on its way. I love cold weather but I feel maybe I am an odd one out.. hehe
So what do you feel about it ?
I know that there are 100s of options I could of put, but hey this is only for a bit interest ... lol
Swinging to most is a private matter.
They use the site to make contacts and for generally chit chat. They do not want to feel a part of a big group..
Making a swinging map is a bit like showing where the local pubs or corner shops are. It sort of degrades the who scene
