Don't worry, it's all taken care of

I'm a member of one or two of the Facebook forums there alright for posting pictures and a little bit of information, but that's about it.

When people ask if someone is on fccuk.org, the usual reply is "it's not the same anymore" "bunch of stamp collectors" (not quite sure what that means) but you get the idea. I imagine that to be previous users that may or may not have been banned for whatever reason.

Phew, in my blind panic I forgot to use the notify button.

Have I said recently that the moderation on this forum is great?

Like a lot of communities, this forum is constantly changing. Whether that type of comment is made by people who have been banned or simply who have moved on, is hard to say.
You can't please all of the people all of the time.

I've never collected stamps, by the way.

Puts up ban reflecting umbrella

What's wrong with philately anyway?
I study roughly 7000 stamps a day.

Not indoors!

Stamp collection? Any gibbon can do that...



Which reminds me, I have a grammar rant. I'll put it in a thread of its own, to make the place look busy!

I'm not suggesting you are a stamp collector Jim or anybody else for that matter, Each to their own.

At the minute I seem to be collecting parking and speeding tickets, Really not a cheap hobbie and I wouldn't recommend it for anyone

No worries, Carl, I have been called worse! I was just being pedantic, factual, pompous, etc. Stick to your strengths, that's what I say!

Facebook is for kids who have f3k all else to do with their time, apart from announcing when they are having a maccy d's or taking a dump!

I do find Facebook way too personal. People say far too much about themselves on there.

Facebook is what you make of it. I hate adverts on TV, on Facebook and anywhere else. I just ignore them. Anyone who repeatedly posts stuff I don't like/want to see, I hide. The main thing for me is that it keeps me in touch with the people I know who use it as a primary means of communication: my kids.

As I said previously, I do use Facebook and I say use loosely. I very rarely post comments or "update my status" mainly because I'm a private person and I like to (with the exception here and there) keep things to myself.

People do share way too much, however I'm glad they do, it amuses me. One person in particular is always coming out with things you'd expect to see on Jeremy Kyle, "Carl Scott likes this"

I think with the Facebook fiat coupe forum is nice to put faces to names.

My 17 year old daughter unfriended me on Facebook. Something about being a embarrassment?

I've not really owned a coupe for 3 years but still come on here on a daily basis, I don't know if it's old habits die hard or Stockholm syndrome?

One thing I've noticed on other forums, especially the Audi forums, is the number of members in the US that keep the posts coming in, there's only a handful of Europeans on them.

A pity the coupe never made it in the states.

You didn't mention you were a frankophile.

Gibbon's?


Back on topic, today I be mainly working; tomorrow, that and looking for a 24" tv for our nooo 'snug' room (Mrs Ed's name, not mine)
....I am being recommended this one by my tv-phile son


..and on Saturday I be mainly heading to FCSS at Downton-over-the-moon to pick up my now pristine under-bellied and generally de-bugged Bumbler - the 650-mile trip aided by above-mentioned Ed junior who turned out to be a respectable driver last time he helped drive it back

I've been sans Coupe now for around four years and still pop in from time to time. I think the general banter and quality of personality of people on here is still great. I like the fact that people on here possess genuine intelligence, unlike the vast majority of other car forums.

On Saturday I also be mainly driving to Upton-under-water to deposit the coupe for the winter; lunch will be happening so don't get there too late, Simon!

Here is the Knews at To.

Happy Now?

I've ranted on a thread

Now I'm off back to sleep

Well done chaps! Its great to see such diverse threads springing up.
I think you lot had forgotten how good you are as a collective.
Some great threads gone up in the last week or so and it seems to have sparked brilliant rants and musings. Keep it up!

Well I feel the opposite! With all this activity I'm actually logging on here more often to read everything. My output at work has declined considerably

Please can we revert back to 3 new threads a week
