Sorry, Bovey Tracey...too far inland.

goodness me, one of our erstwhile members joins MySpace and the Shed's whole moral fibre falls to pieces...  |
there are a lot of our erstwhile members secretly lurking in myspace...  |
I think I'm right in thinking that Myspace is the one for people with talent, which would explain why I'm just a lonely thicky on Facebook 
Lonely that is except for this site's owner, Max & at least one other admin chappie

I've never really considered going on MySpace.
Evelyn (Mrs Erg) seems to enjoy it but is forever playing catch-up with her emails.
I must say that I have been off MyFace quite a few times.

Jim found me on FB, but to be fair over the last 2 or 3 months I've hardly ever logged in............. although I might have more time soon.................
my 'real name' therefore my FB name is Rachel Wilce type it into the friend finder and I think you'll spot me!

Wrong - I'm on Myspace, which is all the proof you should need. I tend to sign into Facebook more often, but I use neither anywhere as much as Progarchives, which is my premier networking site. I'm not sure what that says about me . |

this just in...
Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and the run on Northern Rock in the UK, uncertainty has now hit Japan.
In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.
Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will likely go for a song while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.
While Samurai Bank are soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, Ninja Bank are reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.
Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared that staff may get a raw deal.

^ not my own work, but we came up with others - Fuji Bank has a mountain of debts, the Bank of Judo has taken a bad fall, Kendo Bank are on the edge, and Kabuki Bank have masked their real performance.
