Has anyone else noticed the proliferation of interweaving off-topic discussion across

recently?
We have various very active threads that all seem to be merging into one huge ball of anarchy.
Is it only me who noticed that this all began when Daniel moved to Berlin?

You think I was holding it all together? You think I was a sort of spiritual fulcrum for the forum? A sort of forumfulcrum?
Or are blaming me again..?

I make no judgement.
Perhaps the moral compass and the Sampson's flowing locks of the forum lie in Belfast?

I don't know, but when JDAW gets back he, whoever he is, will be strapped to the underside of the bed.

There you go folks, you heard it here first. I'm in charge.
Silly season starts here. New threads to be started tonight.
Please choose between:
- Have you ever noticed that the last glass of the second bottle tastes less memorable than the first glass of the first bottle? I can't remember..
- What 10YO do you sprinkle on your cornflakes?
- Tasting at Julian's while he's on holiday
- Do they have port in space? Derek's top tips for astronomical drinking.

Does that make God somewhat of a voyeur? Does he judge me for my choice of beverage?
