Following discussions with Crusty, it was decided to appoint a new moderator. We drew up a shortlist and from that took the difficult decision in choosing from it. In the end and following his acceptance, Rolo is now a moderator on here. God help us all!  -------------

Off the booze? I forgot about that. Is this really the right time to increase Rolo's stress levels? Should this decision not have waited until Rolo is restored to normality? (well in his case what passes for normality!!) ------------- A man must have a code |

No references to photographs of yours truly unless same have been previously posted on the site,either by me or by HD ( 'cos I've no clue how to do it.) More rules to follow.

If you are wondering about what a moderator does how about coming up with an expmnation of what a best boy does in movie prodcutions or a dolly grip.

PMs = Private Messages - they are private to only the sender and recipient!
they can moderate silly! I am not able to say if Rolo can do anything else!
He has no skills which makes him ideal as a moderator!
Nope - they are still private!
Pay ROFL!!! There are groupies though!
of course! Im here ages though and I still haven't gotten bribed. I was starting to take it personally!
They were the ones he wore to his interview for the mod job! -------------

Not a lot really Mins. Just tries his best to help the wonderful Admin. people to ensure that nothing untoward occurs on the forum.

Sorry Andy, just can't be having this kind of language and filthy content on our family friendly forum. It's a yellow card for ya, I'm afraid. Lads, just going to use some of my new found powers to tidy things up a bit. Gonna move some old topics from " Sticky " status to " Normal " status so they no longer appear at the top of Forums etc. Hope that's OK, don't want to tread on any toes, so tell me to feck off if yiz want to. |

Thanks lads, although don't think any congrats are deserved. It's the regular posters that keep thing going and ensure that it's as much fun as it is for us all.

< name="AdsSignaller">if(document.body){document.body.off_complete = "yes"; window.status = "off_end"; window.status = ""} Hi Rolo, 'Carolina' was is a beautiful girl called Irene who groved 77-79ish. Enjoyed dancing with her during the slow sets to James Taylor's 'Carolina on my mind' among others of Cecil's favourites at that time. She went on to become a primary school teacher in North Dublin. Haven't seen her in 25 years. Hence the username - fond Grove memories!
