    Just realised, member for over 10 years

    Matt has already named his child after me, don't I also get a trophy from the head guy?

    Oh and who remembers the big crash and the green website?

    Re: Just realised, member for over 10 years

    I was here prior to the wipe 2003!!!

    Initially my username was Grendel and my avatar was a yellow Calvin and after forum wipe I changed it to what it is now.

    I left Tweakers Asylum as a mod as the site was going downhill and literally I came here as a mod / new member

    Re: Just realised, member for over 10 years

    Pshaw. Even I've been around here longer than 2004!

    I must've been round pre 2003 though as I recall spending a lot of time on Hexus when I was on "work experience" way back in 1999.
    An Atlantean Triumvirate, Ghosts of the Past, The Centre Cannot Hold
    The Pillars of Britain, Foundations of the Reich, Cracks in the Pillars.

    My books are available here for Amazon Kindle. Feedback always welcome!

    You get a tankard at 10k posts
    Sadly, they get lost in the post frequently.

    I don't know when I joined. Hopefully posting this will tell me

    Edit: There we go. Another 10 months until I can celebrate my anniversary. What do we get? A lovely weekend away to 'rekindle things' that ends in arguments?
