FFS Lil, he's just a bit on the side. If he pisses you off just bin him. Don't start sounding so downtrodden.

Crikey it's FOUR years ago here

Ponders · 27/06/2013 19:18

Confused
Ponders · 27/06/2013 19:20

09-Dec-11

(Dec 9th 2011, not Dec 11th 2009 Grin)

LilacBreastedRoller · 27/06/2013 19:23

ShockShockShock

And at 'so fresh'.

BoreOfWhabylon · 27/06/2013 19:59

I didn't listen to TAX but on the old BBC boards we used to get updates from lovely kind posters about what went on. Does anyone want to volunteer to do the same here?

And Olivia - any news of us having a topic of our very own?

LondonMother · 27/06/2013 20:26

Bore, any hints on who you were on the old board? I would make a fool of myself if I tried to guess.

BoreOfWhabylon · 27/06/2013 20:30

Grin I'll tell you if you tell me!

(will pm you)

LondonMother · 27/06/2013 21:04

Have PM'd back.

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 10:19

Blimey we're not worthy; Members of the board indeed AND Olivia (this must be the poshest thread in MN Grin!!

Anyone hear the Tuesday Ambex episode ? or is it on next week?

WhatSheSaid · 28/06/2013 10:28

Think AmEx starts next week

I'm wondering if they started recording it with references to sights in Istanbul etc and had to redo it Grin

I think they're setting up an AmEx with dull dull dull Daniel in the US as they keep going on about him going there for the summer.

ppeaI can't comment on whether the BBC Archers talk boards were posh - they weren't always kind...

Until I came here I had never had people to talk to about the Archers - even in RL.

So I have been mentally curtseying to Olivia - who is the kindest, loveliest person I have ever come across and who is simply longing to set up a topic called Lonely Cow - just for us.

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 11:15

Aaah that poor cow; her lowing will keep them awake, they should get a donkey to keep her company Grin

Songbird · 28/06/2013 11:18

Ah yes, Alistair and that girl wotsername "Mmnn, so fresh......"

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 11:27

Someone upthread mentioned Matt not being cuddly; he definitely isn't he nearly went to bed with the posh Annabel, I think that's her name, (it was only by chance that Lil walked in just before anything actually occurred)

BoreOfWhabylon · 28/06/2013 11:32

I am vair vair posh indeed. Oh yes Wink.

I like it here though, no one seems to take it too seriously AND, as you say, we have the wonderful Olivia, who will surely give unto us our 'Lonely Cow' topic Grin

tourdefrance · 28/06/2013 12:26

BoreofW - thank you so much for the guardian link upthread - I'd not come across it before.

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 13:16

So there are two of you who were on the listeners' boards?

Are there any interesting nuggets of information about TA that could be related here?

Ponders · 28/06/2013 13:18

3...Wink

Ponders · 28/06/2013 13:22

there was never anything secret revealed in Mustardland though. honest.

many of the old posters have moved on to \link{http://www.paranormal.org.uk/mustardland/index.php\peet's mustardland} & \link{http://mustardland.boards.net/\smeesue's mustardland}

peet's has the same 6 discussion areas the official board used to have

PseudoBadger · 28/06/2013 13:23

I lurked a lot, but rarely posted as I wasn't witty enough :o

OP posts:
BoreOfWhabylon · 28/06/2013 13:41

I lurked in the Discuss The Archers bit but posted mainly in the off-topic area. No secrets but the knowledge some of the posters had of Archers' history and trivia was phenomenal and some were very very witty indeed.

Irreverent pisstaking is the only way to approach this broadcasting National Treasure in my opinion so am pleased it is taken here Grin.

tourdefrance glad you enjoyed the Nancy Banks-Smith piece - she is terrific, isn't she?

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 13:43

psuedo !Grin The problem with going on MORE chat forums is that I'd never DO anything else !!

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 13:44

Sorry too many caps.!!

ppeatfruit · 28/06/2013 13:45

I love Nancy Banks Smith you should read her about Corrie (very funny indeed).

Somethingyesterday · 28/06/2013 14:11

BoW I'm shocked to the core that anyone might take a flippant attitude to the Archers!

I almost certainly take it more seriously than RL...
