Modicum: A small amount or portion.

Thanks tails. I was speaking in NSR mode.

Be careful, you confused her last time.

Meh, she reaps what she sows.

There's a recent thread somewhere called "FB is nearly one", Chandan. Dello has decreed that September 1 is the first birthday of FB, as that was the day he officially gave the all clear to open the invitations to allcomers.

So congrats to us next Monday.

Those that joined before the birthday.

We had a dry run the day before opening to see how the new place would shape up in terms of its speed, accessibility and such.

Lever was uncannily quick off the mark. Did he get a tip-off?

And who is CaptainO?

FB must on fire these days

Yeah - he was kind of the driving force behind people abandoning C4 and onto the first FB (I only set it up as an example of how easy it would be for someone else to create an alternative cricket forum to the increasingly shitty C4 one - but before I knew it, everyone had moved in), so it was only right to sound him out about the new digs (hoping that he'd, once again, do all the leg work like the sucker good fellow he allegedly is).

CaptainO is our temporary moderator when I'm indisposed. He's a real whip-cracker, so watch yourselves...

And not once has JKL claimed any plaudits. What a guy!!

Belated cheers to JKL for the early influence on the successful implementation of this joint.

And another strong posting month.

Maybe JKL is CaptainO

What was the score, taips?

About 16 400 seeing as you are too lazy to look it up

Gimme a break. I'm half cut on good red wine. Can't farkin remember how to do the stats thing!!

Click on statistics.

Think i might toddle off to the cricket club to watch the youngsters practice.

And have a couple of cold ones.

I'm heading off for a steadying lasagne and a water. Back soon.

250,000 up.

Well done, folks.

And let me take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year ....

This is post 249042 on the FB Cricket Forum (as opposed to the all-inclusive stuff skully was looking at)

Crab pedant.

Sooky 'I can't post as much as I want to at the moment because my mummy won't let me' dubber.

Meh. More like I couldn't be arsed wasting my time sitting for 5 minutes per post to reply to your dross.

btw the genuine quarter mill passed quietly a short while ago.

I'm sure Dello will be chuffed that you don't rate the other parts of his forum site "genuine".

Btw, another nine new threads (or possibly 10, I lost count) and the main FB forum tics over to 100 pages.

Roight, better start some "filler" threads then.
