I asked can you tell us when threads get split and how do we go about it. And they said ... Hello Dave,
We generally move threads onto a new part when they reach 3,500-4,000 posts so the Username Silliness thread is long overdue a new part!
This is a manual process for the moderators so is generally done when we have a bit of downtime.
As this thread is now quite large, we will be splitting it tonight. Doing so helps keep server load low.
Blimey! Not even fasten your seat belt! :D
Nice to see we kept to our usual style and broke more conventions by going large :cool::cool::cool:
Well they certainly looked as if they had been pulled through a hedge backwards.:eek:
ba dum tissssssssssh
i lent that album (songs from the wood) to someone and they never gave it back :mad:
i lent another album to someone and they left it in their car and when they returned it to me it looked like an elizabethan ruff :mad:
i still like vinyl though even though it didn't like cars.....

I am grateful to the Mods. We will be glad of this place come January. In fact if the Jordan/Jim Davidson rumours turn out to be true I may camp out in here all the time. (Shudders)

I have to go bye byes. I have a cold and the drugs have kicked in so I need to get to sleep before they wear off. ( Soluble Aspirin in case your minds are boggling)
Night both and apologies to fink fro moving house when his back was turned - again!

Much as I love it where I am, I still miss the sea - I'd have moved back years ago except the job kinda drew me logically Midlands way.
Decided the kids would be better off not growing up in Brighton. Might have ended up like me

BIB No bad thing...apart from all the Pink Floyd, but i don't think that is geography specific it could happen anywhere

Haven't seen waves for nearly a year. Planned several visits, but for one reason or another they didn't happen. Been a sad muppet watching Brighton Beach Patrol, looking for glimpses of all the pubs I know.
Not the same as a pint of King and Barnes in the hand though :D

like you haven't seen the sea for ages.....
there were loads of weird beer names (i didn't drink beer so hard to remember) things like Old Thumper and Badger all about 8 times as strong as normal beer....can't help but love the pavillion just so weird plonked there in brighton!
*scraping noises, bumps and muffled curses as the furniture is rearranged by stumbling into it in the dark*
Can't find the lights, and nobody's beeen in to sort things out after the warp-jump yesterday
i tried sorting it out last night but i filled the bin with old puns i found lying around, they were everywhere, i got most of them 'tidied' away, there was no room for any more:(
