Enjoying my pint....delicious And now, excuse me if you will, time to shout out as my local Arts Centre "South Street" in Reading has been saved! The local council is accepting a £500,000 arts grant to have a refurb and save the venue from closing. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Literally only just found out looking at Social Media Great news DM. Hate to see a local venue closed. I did a gig there many years ago but haven't been back since. No doubt the £500k includes some money to restore the plaque to its former glory regardless...

OMG I found you ! Yes please a pint of best, it's been a long journey with many false turnings. The activity on e forum was a dead. I even posted 'where is everybody?' but it mysteriously disappeared. Thanks PG, this is lovely.

Hi Hotdrummer - I noticed your post on the old new forum but it got deleted pdq (along with another reference to the new new forum) before anyone could reply! Welcome home! Not too many whiskys and beers or you won't be in a fit state to catch up. How about a nice cup of tea and a hob nob? :-) Oh all right, just one more ........

On the e festival Glasto forum the mod seems like an alright kind of guy.
I just hope others find us here. I'd be tempted to post something but you know the thread would immediately get deleted

Hootdrummer, Hurrah! Have you seen Sindig0's post for flag pics at dusk/night - don't know whether you have any to add to the lovely ones contributed so far...? There's a visitors post on the Womad facebook page asking whether the old forum has been binned off and Womad have commented that it is now at efestivals. Someone else who is on facebook could maybe leave a comment to say we're here?

I just hope others find us here. I'd be tempted to post something but you know the thread would immediately get deleted I thought the same but then didn't want to give the unpleasant mod the tip-off that we're here. We don't want any trolls to feed do we? Mind you, it might liven it up a bit. BTW hello Hotdrummer , welcome to our new home

Well, quite. Can't help but think that if he'd tried that in the first place I'd be sitting here typing this in an eFestivals t-shirt but still, very happy here. Ooh, that's an idea. How about a Full Moon Pub T-shirt? I have a very vague recollection of someone wearing an "unofficial" forum t-shirt way back when that was a thing. What do you think Zenrider? If you search "full moon pub sign" on Google Images, you get this (which made me giggle):
