Still mostly over on the old board. Slowly migrating over to here. Good to se you here mike .... i know this next month is like the dead zone of the year on a MB because there's nothing really happening TC starts. But it seems this board is more dead as far as new threads then the old Boards which is equally as dead. RA still posting giants.com or other sources info with links Guess he'll stick with it till the bitter end

I attribute that to RF posting links to stories. I've posted a few and will continue to add some here and there, but I'm not inclined to copy every story that's out there.
Vacation also factors in and I'll be getting away pretty soon myself. Headed across the pond to the green and pleasant land of Great Britain.

Awesome for you. Love the UK. The only problem is that the food sucks. Other than that the UK is absolutely awesome.

Still? I would think by now the food would evolve. Shows how little I know.
But I am looking forward to my first English breakfast.

I have never understood why they completely ignore the fact that spices exist. Their food issues really boil down to that simple fact. I mean s***, use some salt, use some pepper, use something. Agreed though, awesome place to visit. Still got a cool snap shot taken on my 2nd port visit ever with my mug shot from the top of a double decker bus with Big Ben's face directly behind it. Good times.

I would think they have decent curry, although I'm not big into that. I've always thought curries were designed to mask the quality of the meat being served.

I’ve spent a fair amount of time in London over the past 5 years and I’ve found the food to be pretty good. In fairness, that’s London. I can’t speak for anything outside that. Last time I was in Ireland or Scotland the food was still pretty plain

Last time I was in Ireland or Scotland the food was still pretty plain My daughter lived about an hour north of London (near Oxford) for three years and the food was horrible. We actually ate at the Savoy in London and the food was ordinary by our standards. When they came back for a visit they thought 5 Guys was the greatest thing they ever tasted. Now 5 Guys IS awesome, but hardly fine dining.
When I visited back in 2010, we went to France for 3 days and the food was night and day better.

Done with the old board and will not post there ever again...Honestly, I only see one person posting.The whole first page consists of threads by one person.....And that person is the ONLY person still moderating...
I feel I would be wasting my time going there again..

They know nobody's listening anymore, but they feel a certain sense of obligation to keep playing.

Stop posting and visiting over a month ago and never looked back. Don't see the point.

Signed out for the last time. A little sad because I had some really good posts that will end up in their trash bin..

Yup, I got the last reply ever on there just in time. Right at 4pm. I replied to my last post from yesterday and just said peace out. My first post on there was the day after Super Bowl 35 as an anonymous user, lol. Amazing they actually even had a working message board that far back.
