    signing off, for a while

    will be moving house shortly and since its rented in six month blocks, and since BT insist on an 18 month contract I won;t be having a landline, which means no broadband (cable is just as bad with contract length) - honestly they need a 6 month contract package, even with an upfront fee.. but i digress.

    not been online here much recently anyway due to other commitments, but guess this is good bye for a while, though i hope to come back it may well be a few years.

    sent a note to katie about cancelling memberships for me & donna, without the net thers not much point.

    I will be able to get online every few weeks for a while so i'll keep reading a few bits but not that often.

    ironically post moving and post next year we may have more cash about ao will be out and about more often.


    its been a fun few years on here, waves and hugs to those I've met, and those I never had the chance to. this is by far the best TG site out there, and the only one not plastered in porn ads and populated by dweebs.

    feel free to reply.. not saying i'll read them, or be able to, but no harm.

    take care all of you. x

    chears katie, more the subscriptions for me and donna that needed zapping, not the whole membership, sorry if i wans't clear on that.

    was a message sent through the site as opposed to an email though.

    i think donna's username is angel1 all goes to the same card, which will be also getting zapped soon :-)

    hope to pop back every once in a while


    thansk all.. has been fun, and will be again.

    Dear Claire-

    Hon, I'm so sorry you need to leave and I hope you'll be back soon. Believe me, I understand all about the moving thing, we just moved and are still dealing with the aftermath. The garage is full of unopenend or half sorted through boxes. The cats love it, though, it gives them lots of places to sleep and play.

    Of course you know you will always be welcome back, no matter how long it takes. The door will always be open and the light will always be on. I wish you the best of luck as I'm sure do all the other girls here. Take care, girl.

    Hugs...Joni Marie

    I'm kinda taking this a little hard. We've been friends for a long time now, spoken on the phone, etc. But I wish you all the happiness in the world. If you and Donna ever get out this way I will make sure you are well taken care of.

    I'm really sorry to hear that claire, but i can't say i'm surprised when you've got lots going on. I first met you back in 2004, someone else with a dry, witty sense of humour just like me. Do you .." remember" the august tx? that was a blast & it helped me get where i am to today.......just glad you were about at the time. Just keep in touch ya hear & maybe sometime soon get yourself out my way again.

    Just take Care .... " Live Long & Prosper" ( good old spock eh?...lol)

    Claire,

    You will be missed, as always. Particularly your technical expertise (no doubt derived from saucer repairs) has been invaluable to many here. In addition, you are always pleasant company. Good luck. I'll see you when you get back, gf.

    I'm so sorry to hear that you won't be around Claire. We will miss you both. I haven't received any emails from you about cancelling though.

    Can I suggest that instead of cancelling completely, that we just keep your membership on hold for you, so it will be here for you whenever you decide to return to us. I'll cancel your subscription though, so it won't cost you anything.

    Don't stay away too long now.

    Hugs,

    Katie x

    Hi Claire,

    I have cancelled your subscription but not your membership, as requested. Donna does not have a subscription to cancel so both of your accounts will eventually go Basic. Of course, you will have the option to upgrade again in the future when times are good again but in the meantime, your account and your blogs, forums posts, photo galleries and suchlike, as all safe until you are able to come back again. I hope you will.

    I haven't received any messages from you at all apart from in this forum thread. You can always drop me a line though, at [email protected].

    I guess we'll have to find another geeky tranny (my attempt at humour) to replace you in our Tech Support forum. Any takers?

    Please do stay in touch and drop me a line now and again with all your news. Better still, log in occasionally (even if you have to use an internet cafe or public library) and let us all know how things are going at your end.

    Hugs,

    Katie x

    Claire, I hope you find your way back here sooner rather than later, as you unique brand of humor will be missed.

    Good luck to you both and take care.
