Whatever happened to the likes of Di Marco, Richie Lecturer, xCharliex, Abi, Jade, Rob etc. I'm sure theres more! I think its a shame when we lose members who were here from the start :(
Anymore you can think of?

I remember DM and Abi disappearing all of a sudden, especially DM I swear I remember her posting loads and talking to us and then all of sudden nothing
I swear ems is on facebook cos I think I have her as a friend
I have to admit last year I kind stopped coming on here but I think Im back now
I miss PB!! although I swear months ago I had a pm from her but then I stopped coming on here so that didnt help

I agree totally with you Chris. This year I've had some great banter with Tammy and Moonstorm and others but I also miss the original members of SB like Bryan, Abi, Ems and Debs to name a few because I was a newbie once and they responded to my post when I joined and they welcolmed me on here and I'd love to get in contact with them again. One of my happiest moments on here is when Luna invited me to meet up with her, Trin and Bossman Norman for coffee on Sunday afternoon.

Chris it's scary to believe that it will be six years in March since I joined here. I wasn't even a member on the bbc messageboard but I used to read the post. through the links I was directed to here I was so terrified of joining. I was convinced that no-one was would talk to me. I was so delighted when Bryan responded to my first post. I used to read the shoutbox convo and when I reached 150 posts I was so nervous. I said hi on shoutbox and asked to come in and Shiv, Debs, Ems and Jodi were like Hi come here and chat everyone was so lovley when I joined. So listen up all you newbies or shy members come and say hi. Everyone is so lovely on here you'll have a blast.
Has anybody heard from Hannelene recently?

That is scary, 6 years on here and Ive gone through high school, GCSE's, college and A levels and now half way through my second year of uni

Actually Abbie, I was going to ask the same! She used to post all the time, then dropped off the end of the earth. It took me about a year to first post after joining, now you can't shut me up lol. Eeerr could someone please tell me where the last 6 years went?? I can't believe I have been a member for that long.Had some brilliant banter in 2010 so bring on 2011.
I have started dropping in occasionally, I have been really busy what with working full time, part-time uni course, house, husband and teenage boys. I don't have much time for TV anymore, but I do still watch a few things like CSI, Desperate Housewives and Criminal Minds when there are new episodes on. I also really like art shows, there have been a few of those on recently.
I will also watch Dr Who when it starts back up, but I was really disappointed with the Christmas episode. Not enough Amy Pond!
Happy New Year and al the best for 2011!

See talk of the devil and they're sure to appear. :D Trin I have spent most of my Christmas break watching Criminal minds. Up to all hours watching living, new CSI's and NCIS also have new series. I too was disapointed with Dr Who Sorry Matt but you're no David Tennant. It's strange as there is no 24 to look forward too.
I'm still around, have been popping in quite a lot over the last week to read spoilers!
Must have been missing the place
Hope you are all ok, i'm gonna make more on an effort to post!
xxx
there were a lot from the olden days, it does seem a very long time ago now!
I think people like Di Marco, Abi, Rob went to uni, that could have something to do with it.
lets not forget 'I_luv_dennis' :lol:
I was going to say that! And feelingyellow, she never did reappear after she had problems logging in.

:D
I spent most of Christmas stressing out horrendously about my number one son who has just dropped out of uni.... God knows what he is going to do now, but he doesn't seem that keen to do anything.
I am currently writing two essays, one on Michael Faraday, and one on Edwin Muir's, The Horses. You will have guessed by my presence on soapboards that it is not going well. I got a one week extension due to the flu at Christmas too..
David Tennant was a spectacular doctor, he can show so much emotion in a really genuine way. I don't think we can blame Matt for the Christmas special, though. It seemed to be written to justify Katherine Jenkins singing. The plot itself wasn't bad, but the execution wasn't great. The Doctor and Amy do have a bit a chemistry, she makes him come to life, I think, and unlike David Tennant Matt cannot hold the show together on his own.
Although I miss 24, and it was one of the few things we used to watch together as a family, I am glad in a way that it isn't back - no time!
Wow.. welcome back Trin and Debs!! I have missed you both... maybe we will get a revival of the oldies coming back.. Love all you new guys, I just wish you could have been here when all the other guys were on this forum.. many a happy posting including the Rabbit post (which is still kept in gold)... so many fun and happy times

Dawniee darling we will just have to help you change all that and get you back to posting loads again. How's about you Trin and Debs joining the Matt Cardle/Sebastian Vettel fanclub. :D
I am not too keen on Matt Cardigan.

Oh Trinny don't be like that. He's gorgeous. Drooling over a couple of young fit men are just what you need to de-stress you. :D

Haha there's too many oldies to name.. No worries!
Yup, at uni now and also working whenever I can the rest of the time, so not much play time for me :(
You're at uni too right?

Yeah. What course are you doing?
Finances are such a pain. Books for this semester cost £250 and we only had to buy for 4 out of 6 modules. You'll be better off for it in the long run; may have to get a job myself before long.

Your university library should have access to ebooks that are free to use as well as hard copies. Check your library databases or talk to a librarian. There's also a website where you can download 300 books for free without infringing copyright. I'm not sure if it covers every subject discipline, I will have a look later.

Oh my what a difference 5 years make. When I joined here, Spicy, Kim and many others were still at school. Now they're all grown up at Uni and ready to face the big bad world. i'm sitting here chuckling remembering the Big Brother threads. We used to try and guess who were the younger and older members of SB playing which housemate depending on the time of day or night they were online. The younger members were never on late at night. Now it's a role reversal with the younger ones on late at night and the older members tucked up in bed shattered :lol:
i was rubbish at that big brother thing! i know it is so weird to think that i joined and i was at school, and now i have graduated and i have nearly entered the world of work!!
oooohhhh i feel so old reading this thread!!!
Everyone seems to have grown up :)
Hope everyone's well, been really busy recently moving house, starting uni working all the usual stuff. Like trin, dont have much time for tv at the mo :(

Wow Luna you have been a busy bee, What you doing at Uni? Are you not at Virgin anymore? I remember that freezing Sunday afternoon at Livingston when we met up fondly. We need to meet up again.
Started a criminal justice degree in hamilton - loving it hating the homework lol
going back on monday after well over a month off for christmas :(
Still working at virgin just doing nights now
How is everyone else? Would be great to get another we catch up :)
I am working full-time as a financial research administrator, plus I am doing an OU humanities degree part-time. I am aiming to do art history, and it is purely out of interest, so there isn't too much pressure. Lots of essays to write though :(
I am currently writing an essay on the invention of tradition in Ireland, I am trying to get a few words in before the Murray game come on - I can't spell Nole's surname!
I am in a book group, currently reading Room, and a gym/tennis club where I do not do anything like enough to justify the fees. Swithering about doing the Moonwalk in Edinburgh this summer too. Enjoying life, I would say, but not really watching much TV!
Aww Ive just re- read this thread again and had an idea. Obviously the boards are quieter and its probably been so long since the shoutbox had loads of activitity as in a proper flowing conversation that lasts a couple of hours.
We should try to have some kind of reunion. I know there will be people who we cant get a hold of such as the ones who really have just dissappeared and never really popped back again. But it would just be nice for one day, or well just an evening where we have loads of members young and old to come on and have a good old chat- a cacth up of whats being going on and stuff. Ive been a member for 6 years and I just thought it would be really nice for us to attempt to something like this.

I am on line once in a while, I leave silly messages on the shout box,, a day or so later some one eventually answers me LOL.. Abbie I think that would be an awesome idea to have a reun ion,, good gosh I have been a member forever and a day LOL
lol
I mean it doesnt take a lot of planning, well I say that but if we plan for day in advance so as many members can make it and they we contact everyone, It would just be reat to have everyone on here but more importantly at the same time for a big chat. Its been so long since loads of active members would be on here at the same time.
If I can be here on that day, I certainly will be :)
