Just a quick note to let y'all know we have a new moderator on the forum; Andy/daft_biker.

You all know him for his excellent insect images, and his relentless cycling exploits in all weathers and terrains, well now he represents the younger end of the AP/WDC community demographic - as well as those North of the border (in keeping with latest government targets ).

Anyhoo, he's kindly consented to help maintain harmony on the forum (the fool), and we hope you'll all welcome him in his new role. But, as ever, he remains, first and foremost, a valued member of the forum, as do you all.

I'll say. Not a role I'd relish but congrats all the same.

Congratulations from me. Good luck Andy.


That does beg the question 'what's happened to Mr. Lizard?' I assume he's OK and has left for his own reasons. I trust he isn't ill or anything of that nature?

Unfortunately, David, your guess is as good as ours...

However, the process of inviting a new mod began before LL disappeared - but it could mean, if he doesn't surface, we may need to recruit another madman/madwoman for the Mod Squad!

Oh dear. I was hoping that he may have informed you. It only occurred to me recently that he hasn't been around since that brief flurry of posts on his return from Cuba. His sudden disappearance is slightly concerning considering how often he posted on the forum. I do hope he's alright.

I don't think there's a cause for concern, per se. We have heard, via third parties, that he is 'OK', it's just he hasn't responded to any direct contact. Whether there's any underlying personal/technical issue, or he's just taking a break, we don't know.

So, you've been using direct thought transference, up until now! Shouldn't we have been told?
