UKW Missing, Presumed: Got a Life?

[BradNaylor]

ah yes Scrit. Would love to know what happened there. I can only assume the worse.

I'm not going to get drawn into discussing Scrit personally, but the simple truth is that as most members of all forums post anonymously, almost any of us could fall under a bus one day and none of our online friends would ever know.

I think I saw Scrits van on a TV program, or did I imagine it?

Yes I think this was the point of my post really. You never really know if the worse has happened when people disappear. Or if they just realise they don't want to continue socialising with bunch of internet woodworking geeks any more

Niki passed away this week after a long illness (info from an e-mail a friend of mine on another forum received).

Condolences to his wife Regina on this sad news.

Ray

 

[Karl]

That is sad news Ray.

 

[Harbo]

Yes very sad news - he will be missed.

Rod

 

[Jake]

Oh no, that's sad.

 

[TrimTheKing]

Oh no! Very sad news indeed.

 

[devonwoody]

We have lost a true woodwork forum contributor which will be sadly missed and also a person who gave his knowledge and help to all.

Its just dawned on me that MM has not been here a while- he works shifts but I'll go round his place sometime & thump on the door :twisted: & see how he is :wink: Exchanged a few e-mails with him around christmas when he was planning to buy a big shed

I am still here and I drop in occaissionally, just finding it difficult to get motivated this winter, nice to be missed though

 

[devonwoody]

MM, make me a nice box I can copy, (like that tissue box) :wink:

 

[RogerS]

It's very true. SWMBO is always on at me to have someone lined up to help her sell my equipment should I fall under a bus.

:lol: I am making a load more out of Spalted Beech, they look quite amazing so far, mind you, I would say that wouldn't I :lol:

What about Byron Black, LyNx, Bean, Keith Smith and Motown Martin. All of these were good members who I have not seen about for a while. Martin did send me a PM when I surfaced after my illness but I have not heard from him since.

Sadly there is one member who I often think about when sharpening chisels on my Tormek and that is Trevtheturner who passed away 4 years ago this May. He wife was kind enough to sell me the machine.

Cheers

Mike

Only joking mate good to see your back :wink:

Cheers

No problem mate I was only messing about :lol:

As for inserting more then one "quote" in a post. Click on the right hand mouse button and copy the message, then press the quote button in the line of nine boxes above where you are typing your reply (just above Font Colour), insert (paste) your second quote, and then click on the quote box again. You should then have your second quote. There is probably a much easier way to explain this but I had a bad night and am still half asleep :roll:

The workshop is going great except for the bloody dust extraction which dispite having 3 extractors on the 100mm metal pipework running around the ceiling is still crap. :twisted:

Cheers

Mike

It's very true. SWMBO is always on at me to have someone lined up to help her sell my equipment should I fall under a bus.

Yes Roger, my wife and I have had the same discussion, perhaps our wives could exchange names in their address books?

all you need to do is keep a list of likely second hand values and the url for this forum - i'm sure we'd be happy to buy up your kit after pushing you under.... i mean if you unfortunately fell under ... a bus.

 

[wizer]

Real bad news about Niki. What a great loss.

Believe it or not I'd forgotten entirely about that - £750 wasn't it??? :lol:
Glad to hear you are OK
