First of all I must apologise for the lack of a General Board but all is well now.
We also have a new Global Moderator on Board. atouchglass has taken on the daunting role of helping me Moderate ie make sure everything is going AOK. I am also hoping for another of our members to join in , am waiting on his reply.
So if anything happens from now on. "It was them , i didn't do iT";D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

here yea hear yeah, oh whateva,  It is now official. We have 2 new Global Moderators to watch over us. atouchofglass ???and millard 1399.  Please feel free to contact any of us via PM for any queries. Between the 3 of us we hope to keep things going as smoothly as possible. So now I can really say............ "It was not me it was him" ;D ;D ;D. Also some extras........... Karma......... I see we are using it........ great......... it is a good way of letting people know if they are doing the right or wrong thing without being overly rude........... Keep it up. Also now new members have to be authorised via the staff......... there is no more auto authorisation........ . It is hoped that we will be able to adivse people of conduct etc prior to them joining and with them accepting this be confident that our members will do the right thing by the forum and each other. Will let you know more as it comes to light. Ditzy.......... |

This is great news for the forum's future stability. My thanks to ATOG and millard for taking on the task. I just hope that ATOG's new powers don't go to his head and he smites everyone who knocks him off the front page Seriously though, his blend of humour and good advice - as and when required - means we are in good hands. |

Updates on the Forum improvements.
Us little Forum Fairies have been putting our heads together and have come up with a new addition.
You will notice a new section under tow cars.............
This is because not everyone has a classic car to tow with....... infact I reckon there an awful lot of Classic Vans out there that are being towed by recent dated autos. Now there is a place for those people to talk about their four wheeled friends............and hopefully we may see more members if they feel they do not need the car as well as the van.

Hi,
One of the messy little things with this forum (Proboard), is that if a member 'bookmarks' a thread; individual email notification of the threads subsequent activity is NOT set by the boards 'default bookmark settings'.
The member will NEVER receive emails of thread activity despite 'bookmarking' it.
'Bookmark' = 'Subscribe' on other forums
Many members would not be aware of this. We probably 'lose' these members if they've zapped in for a quick look and a query, then wait for an email response .... that never comes.
1. Can 'bookmark' = 'email notification' be set as the boards default?
2. If not, would you wish me to write a Tutorial which could be sticky'd?
3. If you click the 'Help' button and 'Bookmark', it demonstrates how to activate email notification subscription.

yep should be set as when you post something that thread gets bookmarked by default, seems funny that it is not, as we will get allot more posts and more returning members when they get an email to remind them of CC

Hi blossom
I have used a 3mm plywood with a polyester finish ( pre-finished), with success and it looks good. I purchased my supply from Sharps Plywood. The plywood is very light in weight and is very easy to use. I made templates from strips of plywood to get the shape/size correct and used a white adhesive / sealant.
Cheers boblor
