Seventh Tardis - The Doctor Who thread
I've got it on my TiVo yet to watch but imagine it's like a Royal Christmas Lecture (love those!) except with a Who slant thrown in? Yes, that's exactly what it was. A few celebrities in the audience / asked to demo something. Charle…

Seventh Tardis - The Doctor Who thread
^ I'm really looking forward to that too! A super bit of nostalgia, I'd imagine. (Though no - I'm not old enough to have witnessed it first hand!) I watched the Brian Cox 'Science of Doctor Who' show last night. It came in …

Yeah, i think there is an option to turn off tagging completely. I'd be happy to do that if no-one objects. Right... does anyone (apart from the spam-bots) use, or intend to use tags? Reply now or forever hold your... mouse! If no-one objects…

At least 3 great lines: "I am a doctor... but probably not the one you expected." "Because the front crashes first." "Physician, heal thyself." :-)

I'm not usually too keen on "mini-sodes" but this is actually rather good! Brilliant closing image...

Me & The Carp have no powers on the old board. I did provide a link, in the FAQ, to the old board, though... in case anyone wishes to rifle through the archives.

Well, I'm sure you've been writing for many years, but i think it's only fairly recently that you've had books published? Maybe Alison will write a novel one day... Possibly under a pseudonym.

Alison is somewhat in awe of writers (of novels). Well, she said something to that effect a while ago. It's great that you're doing this, Peter, especially (no offence) at this time of your life. :-)

Yeah get rid of the tagging. Can you change the pic that appears on top of the forum page ?. I love that one but is there an option to change it ?. Yes, there is. But i would not want to pee-off anyone in the frapp camp by altering their chosen hea…

Haha. I shall try and keep this line of conversation clean. Lest, of course, i be labelled a "dirty old perv man"! PS: I'm sure women of a certain age do a fair amount of oggling/lusting too!

Sexy Women
NEWSFLASH: You don't stop finding sexy women (of all ages) attractive as you get older. But yeah, i guess it's good form to not... salivate quite so much, as one advances through the decades. (I've just hit 53!)

They're not important, but it's vaguely interesting to see how many posts you've made, I'd say. It's annoying that this is supposed to be a superior platform, and it can't get right a simple thing like this!

Any links for goldfrapp performance on the french radio, pretty please?
Click on the 'More discussions' button below this ('News') section and you'll see a thread/discussion that includes 'Inter France radio' in the title... Or.. if you are in 'Discussions' view mode (ie no …

The old GMB is now awash with spam. It's the same old spambot... 'Kaymoe'!

I don't think I have another browser. I'm not very good with things like browsers, downloading or (really) anything difficult to do with computers. That's OK, Peter... I thought you might not have (another) one. :-) I've just i…

Nice spam-busting idea Peter, but since the introduction of "invite only" registration, there should be no more spam to contend with. If you have another browser (besides Chrome) it would be interesting to see how your post-count behaves …

ADMIN PLEASE NOTE: Forum issues
Thanks for your feedback, guys. It does look as if the post-count issue might relate to the browser people are using (ie Chrome: slow catch-up, Firefox: works fine, IE: maybe ok?) I will install Chrome later and try that myself.

Holy baloney! I'd only vaguely heard of 'My little pony'... this "brony" stuff is bizarre indeed!

Comment by Halloween_Jack November 2013 permalink
ADMIN PLEASE NOTE: Forum issues
Yes, chrome is a browser, a 3rd alternative to IE or Firefox. Your post count now says 174.

OK, cheers for your feedback, Jeronimooo. CW, do you mean you get a 'Dismss' option for some threads?

Comment by Halloween_Jack November 2013 permalink
Welcome to the new Goldfrapp Forum!
^ That is odd... that you have that option. I just logged on as a "test" member (ie non admin) that I use, and saw the "Dismiss" as an option.. but it was also there for other threads I think? I chose it and it didn't seem …

Welcome to the new Goldfrapp Forum!
^ Cheers. Yes, it was supposed to stay on top (or 'sticky' as they call it)... by making it an "announcement". But I see it hasn't! I will investigate...

Hmm, my post-count seems to actually be incrementing correctly today!? This should take me to 1352. [EDIT: yes, it did] Can someone else check theirs please? You can check/compare it in at least 3 places: 1) at the top of any individual post 2) on…

Yeah, the violinist (& other instr) is Ellie Stanford, who's part of the Stanford Quartet. http://eleanorstanford.co.uk/HOME.html I will add names to the picture.
