Is suspect anyone who disagrees with IWC's views. Expect me to 'disappear' shortly for airing a seditious suggestion.

If you were to "disappear" Iain we cannot be held responsible. We are opposed to any Rendition. Not only do we not agree with it, we are not complicit in it and nor do we turn a blind eye to it.

I noticed the membership had jumped in the last few days. Lots of suspect names, It time for a culling again Idi, unless you need a handbag in an outlet store in Adi Dhabi.

On another note,there are 1100 topics now :o 10% increase in last 3 months. Great to see so much activity. :thumbsup:

We could always start one of those random count booster topics whereby we count backwards from 1000 to 1.

Just calculated that IWC single handedly accounts for 17.6% of posts on this forum. Not sure if that means I need to get out more or he does! ;)

I just heard Uncle Gaybo extoling the virtues of the society's Whiskey & Chocolate soireé over on Lyric FM (Sunday 3rd March ~3:15pm) and David Havelin as host. Well done. Sorry I missed it now! Gay reckons that whiskey & chocolate is where its at.

I was listening! Quite surreal to hear Gay Byrne call me a "lovely fellow" on the radio :) But he said very nice things about the whole evening and the society.
