I only started to visit here at the end of 2015, I've noticed the slowing down even in that short time. It happens, that's just the way it is.
Clearly we live in changing times. I wonder if the club needs to make use of social media for example, get a page on Facebook and Twitter with links to the club site?

I am on 2 photography forums, each has their own website and they also have face book pages

Just a thought

You know what's a really interesting stat if you ever have half an hour and a bottle of something to kill?

How many of the new members who we're shown registering each day ever actually post and how many of the members listed as referals ever actually show ANY site activity apart from the day their welcome post appears.

Don't look into it if you're the sort of person who wears tin foil hats to avoid your mind being read

Default And Myself

I've gone Blue and that will be rectified in the coming days. I'm sticking around because I'm keeping my ZT till I croak, I hope the site can oblige me with content as I slowly become a drooling caricature of what I once was.
