Guest Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Have just be looking at the member no of the latest people who have joind the forum. In a month roughly a 1,000 people joined the forum!!!! We must be the biggest forum of people for one profession surely. it is phenomenal to think when you write a comment on here 30,000 people could read it who all look after children!!!!! After being away for a while it has grown incredibly. Well done to all of you who monitor the posts that we all write. When is the Forums Birthday? We've said it before but we should have a big party and all get together. or maybe have Forum parties all over the country We might even be able to shut the politicians up for a while with our views on child care.

Pimms o'clock? Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 (edited) ...well if ever anyone feels strong enough about something and wants to start a petition to Government then there is a great potential here to add "we the undersigned..." and get everyone to sign!?!?!? Thinking caps on everyone. Edited April 23, 2010 by BMG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I've moved this into the lounge where we can make ourselves a little more comfortable whilst we plot for world domination... Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Ah ha world domination eh? ( Laughs wickedly) I do think we should do something in the way of a get together, but that is easier said than organised. Ideas anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I joined in Aug 03 if I remember correctly, didn't realize the Forum was in its infancy then! Feeling old now... How about Wembley stadium, or Hyde Park? We need a song.... I'd like to teach the world to sing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 'In perfect harmony" tra la la.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 As long as someone else teaches the world to sing Jacquie - no-one would thank me for that! Steph I'm always slightly startled as well as delighted when I look at the figures for FSF visitors. We usually average around 5,000 per day and this works out to around 100,000 different visitors a month, so more than you thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 And as for organising all the members to come to a bash, it took months and years to get seven of the moderators to congregate in one place - so I vote Maz does the organising for the other 22,000!

Deb Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 (edited) We usually average around 5,000 per day ... Well I was going to say that half of those are from Maz (thank goodness - I should add) so that doesn't count then I saw Steve's subsequent comment and thought better of it - else Maz will think we are ganging up on her . Here are the lyrics - so we can get some practice in..... I'd Like to build the world a home and furnish it with love grow apple trees and honey bees and snow white turtle doves I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmoney i'd like to hold it in my hand and keep it company i'd like to see the world for once all standing hand in hand and hear them echo through the hills for peace throuout the land (thats the song i hear) i'd like to tech the world to sing in perfect harmoney i'd like to tech the world to sing in perfect harmoney i'd like to build the world a home and funish it with love grow apple trees and snow white turtle doves i'd like to tech the world to sing in perfect harmoney i'd like to hold it in my arms and keep it company Edited April 23, 2010 by Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimms o'clock? Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 ...and I'll buy the world a coke, (cheap round that hey?!?!) Just to propose a toast, with a coke of course, to say this is the best place to be for intellegent conversation and sharing good news and ideas.

HappyMaz Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 so I vote Maz does the organising for the other 22,000! Just tell me when Global FSF HQ is available and I'll see what I can do! Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 ...well if ever anyone feels strong enough about something and wants to start a petition to Government then there is a great potential here to add "we the undersigned..." and get everyone to sign!?!?!? Thinking caps on everyone. Ahem - please see Information sharing thread - not quite a petition - an email campaign though! I've moved this into the lounge where we can make ourselves a little more comfortable whilst we plot for world domination... Maz World domination I'm up for that! :wacko: As long as someone else teaches the world to sing Jacquie - no-one would thank me for that! Steph I'm always slightly startled as well as delighted when I look at the figures for FSF visitors. We usually average around 5,000 per day and this works out to around 100,000 different visitors a month, so more than you thought... I'll happily lead the singing - I favour the key of z - how's that for everyone else! And as for organising all the members to come to a bash, it took months and years to get seven of the moderators to congregate in one place - so I vote Maz does the organising for the other 22,000! Maz - you'll be fine - nothing a woman of your calibre can't handle! :rolleyes: As for the 100,000 visitors a month - wow - that's quite scary - when I type my words of wisdom :unsure: I forget that I am not just talking to friends - perhaps I should confine myself to the lounge area (Steve - I heard you say "yes please do") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
