Morning all!

Have just had a chance to catch up with the posts after yesterday and blimey you've all been busy! :lol:

First, let me say on a personal note a huge thank you to all of you who have wished me well, I'm so greatful to know such kind & caring people and please also accept my best wishes! :grouphug:

I've got some good news which I hope you will be happy to hear! I've decided based on your responses that whilst there is one single member left on here that we can help & give a voice to the forum should not close. Now this decision can only be made thanks to the support and enthusiasm we have received by all of you and also by a certain few people that have offered to take the forum over! It still surprises me how community minded we are even at the end and I think it is that which will saves us and also which separates us from places like Tescos! :lol:

I've PM'd all of you that are interested and hope you get back to me shortly. To the rest of you I say thank you and do not despair! Let us focus on quality not quantity, community not enmity, uniqueness not as a weakness, and above all survival without rival! These are the qualities that The-T-Bar represents and what sets us apart, the very fact that we hold these things more valuable than any amount of advertising is what will save us!

Now before I rant anymore I'm off to tescos to get some breakfast! But I'm gonna stop off at my local grocers on the way back! One, because I need some vegetables for the lizards and two, because I like being part of my local community! :woohoo:

Kara x

P.S. And for any other forums that this post gets reproduced on don't forget to post this link:
...aah nothing beats the inspirational soft rock of Bon Jov! :rofl:

Let's see if we can make this the side for interesting mods and track days ?
T bar trackdays sounds good to me, they aren't too expensive on the smaller tracks if we can get 10 of us together...

That's really bad!
I'm such sorry about that! I hope to meet all of you again somohow. Thanks for your efforts!
Just a little observation on your italian statement below.
The right one is: E' meglio vivere un giorno da leone che cent'anni da cogl@@@@!! It doesn't change the meaning but the claim is more outspoken!
Best regards
Massimo

I'm sure that news of The-T-Bar's closure will be delightful for certain members of another forum and I have one thing to say to those people: E' meglio vivere un giorno da leone che cent'anni da pecora. (It is better to live one day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep.)

Now I feel really bad..... I picked up Kara's email this morning, just before I started decorating the final room in Carole and my house, and now come on here only to find things have apparently been sorted, just before I got my armour out of the cupboard and borrowed a white horse!

I personally have no idea what it takes to run the forum, but I do have some spare time, I am not poor, but not filthy rich so I was going to volunteer to assist in anyway I can. If it's not too late to help, count me in!

Kara, you're a star in many ways, if you feel the time is right to take a back seat like most of us on here have for sometime then go for it. but it seems apparent that many on here don't want the T Bar to die. Thanks hun for all you have done in setting it up, and don't go away totally.
We all love you far too much.

I often think the mark of a good organisation is to be able to let people in positions walk away when they feel the time is right, and for someone else to take up the reins.

Older but certainly not wiser!
