Oh, please give it a rest now Tori?
Yes, I miss folk who used to post here, but as in life, you lose touch with people throughout your life for one reason or another. I wish them well and choose to think of them with fondness rather than regret. I'm not on FB or Twitter, so they really are gone for me, but like I say, I wish them happiness.
And I take particular offence to your saying 'friends from the old school. They were the best'. I'm sorry if we don't meet your high standards of FM, but I am more than happy with everyone here!
