quite right, Rach... 
I appreciate my 'temporary' name is rather unimaginative, but it was created in a state of panic, upon seeing that the GR had disappeared...  . My initial concern had been that a number of perplexed, disenfranchised Greys would be wandering aimlessly throughout the cyber-ether, with nowhere to call home...

"The Shed" certainly works, or Jim's suggestion of "Grey Pride" is good too........... I think though abouve all the democracy isn't always a great thing, some one should just decide and do it, then we can all live with it. Once we get to 3000 posts we can always pick another name!
Welcome back Peter, we've missed your wit and wisdom, and all the grammar has gone to pot since you've been away!

"Heer" would indicate Jim would be a "van Garten".  All threads that reach 3000 posts get closed and hidden, so that's why a few threads have been re-started on P.A. It's in an effort to make P.A. run faster and I must say, it has certainly been working; so well done to Max.

^ i think the "door" became very stiff and was increasingly more time consuming to open 
would be good to see some "giddy Heer Von Garten" pictures Peter - as I missed an oppportunity to see a live performance on Friday...

Aha -- I found you fine "well-seasoned" folks at last! 
Was the original Grey Room finally closed due to "maximum occupancy" & zoning by-laws, or did those pesky PA kids perhaps get in one night and trash the dear old place beyond repair? 
 Anyone want to see my holiday piccies? Candid shots of a certain giddy Herr Von Garten feature largely...(he asked them knowingly).
I like "The Shed" too, BTW.

"Crikey"...? Cripes.... the GR SEGR is everybody's
how about calling it " Steve's Aging Grey Amigos"
don't think i'll be able to be there tonight, i'll have to remain square. working till 7 (knackered moving desks, cupboards and filing cabinets), drive home the long way round as the Council has the roads up again, have my annual bath and backscrub, fumigate my shoes, clean my wig in the washing machine, scrub my curry tackle, eat 8oz of fresh manure and a glass of cat pee to tone down my halitosis...... would luckily make it up there by 2 am....
have fun!
