@gelfen -
I know how you feel - I seem to have a habit of killing threads off - I post, then no one bothers after that, I'm getting a bit paranoid now....
I think we should adopt Milwall FC's chant - 'Nobody likes us, We don't Care!'
btw, for those who are wondering, Milwall are a not very popular English football club, known for their hooligans and violence. I bet the real Milwall fans are a silent majority though.
Anyway, gone off topic, sorry!  The 'dead' times seem to be after about midnight GMT to 4 or 5 in the morning, when the EU starts getting up again. It would be interesting to see which country has the most Esato members!

Tell it to me Brother Sammy.
i either lob into the office first thing in the morning to get the tail end of a day's discussion, or i start a new thread which gets largely ignored because i posted it hours before everyone else is awake! i try to hold off posting new topics to the end of the day to maximise the exposure, but the latest i usually post is still only 7-8am GMT (today is an exception).
....long thin skinny ones
big fat furry ones
i eat them and throw their skins away
nobody knows i eat worms all day

given these discussions, I guess I will be less effective as moderator when I get back to oz permanantly (yipee I hear some of you say) but we're not planning that for around another 12 months (awww I hear you now say)

I can't wait to get home, I've really had enough of UK and I'm only there 2 days a week most weeks. Give me the outdoor life anytime!
mixin, sounds like a few tinnies over a bbq are in order and I've already got tentative plans with a few aussie members

@masseur
I might be in Oz next year too, quite looking forward to it actually. Everyone prefers their homeland I suppose; I see you also work in Germany, I would live in Australia any day over Germany, and I have nothing against Germany or Germans, in fact most of the Germans I have met are extremely nice people, but I just don’t think I would be comfortable living in a country without the Queen.

its ok here in Frankfurt, its a business city and most people only come here for the weekdays and then go home to wherever
many Aussies see no need for the queen (or her govenor general) any more, and thats my opinion too, but I've read (and respect) your strong British views before so its probably better if we agree to disagree before we start and steer clear of that topic
btw, everyone is welcome in Oz! its just a shame that the timezone keeps it out of most of Esato rush hour (he said trying to get back on topic )

@masseur
You are indeed a wise fellow my Antipodean friend! I genuinely wasn't trying to start anything, just passing comment really.
Did you know that Britons were allowed to vote in Australia and sit on Australian juries up until 1987?
@Vlamm
What about Australia as a venue?

it seems that we Aussies (and others in the commonwealth) can still vote in UK according to some forms I recently received from the electoral commission. I'm glad its not compulsory though, like it is back home
I definitly think an Aussie meeting is a must!
