12 hours on and still tinged with sadness, but extra keen to get out there and image mars like he did!!
Right Bintel, talk to me about a 3x, 4x, 5x barlow!!!
It is funny, I am not all that emotional normally, and was unprepared for how I felt. How can you explain this feeling i had for someone I had never talked to, never met, just traded a few threads on this forum a couple of times.
I believe i have an answer!
Even though i may have more "personal" contact with some members than others, each and every member is very very important to me.
My "parental" (for want of a better term) feeling for each and every forum members and the loss of one of its children is testament to Mike's vision in setting this forum up and I would say it has been fully realized!
I am proud to say that if something was to happen to even a one day old member who is being bullied into his /her first 10"dob, then i would treat that as a loss in my family!
Thanks mike for providing me and others with an extended and close family, sharing successes and failures, fighting and making up, celebrating births and young family photos and sharing the grief of shock departures.
