Since a nice man I know from elsewhere invited me to drop in, I thought I should have a look.
I'm not as old as some (just starting to think about how to mark my 50th birthday) and I do one of those IT jobs that are death to social conversation. It takes me to some interesting places, though, and fits my broad Internationalist outlook that also makes me profoundly depressed at recent developments in the UK.
Marginally left of centre politically - although I now live in uber-Tory South Oxfordshire - and in seven general elections I've voted for the winner exactly once, in 2001. Perhaps I'm just a contrarian. I will also offer opinions on cycling, cooking and cricket - but I probably won't be limited to those.

Time to take stock and start enjoying life. 40 years ago, 50 was old, now its barely middle aged.

Devaluation caused by Brexit It appears that un unnamed mod (lets call him "carlos from chile" who took a back hander from Avant) has been dicking about with the star system. 1 is now all that is available for regular members.

I didn't really like the rating system, but I couldn't justify my dislike in any rational way so couldn't do much.
But then a comment unrelenting pressure from some bloke a portion of the readership gave me an excuse compelled me to take action.
Regards,
Carlos.
