How do.....

After a while out in the wilderness and having not ridden for 18 months due to personal reasons I'm coming back to the fold and of course my first port of call is the old friend UKRM.

So, who's dead, who's fallen out with who etc?

Still got the Varadero and the Guzzi. nowt changed there.

So, currently using Google groups to lurk but wanted to check what is the current server of choice for all self respecting ukrm'ers? Is the German server still top dog? I dont need or want binary stuff so nothing fancy, just simple reliable will do fine.

 

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, entwisi

1: Who the **** are you?
2: Wrap lines, newbie scum.
3: Welcome back.

The German Server rules. Ignore the chavs who will attempt to woo you to
the wops.

 

In my order of preference :-
news.albasani.net
www.aioe.org
news.eternal-september.org

All decent free usenet servers, text only.

 

Go **** yourself.

 

'depends on what you want to do with it. If it's just posting privileges
you're after, your ISP might have a news.whatever.their.name.is.com box.
If you want to be able to libel with impunity, I'd suggest one of the
offshore services.

 

Coo would you look at that, just in time to pick up a Viking on the way
to BOSM....

 

"Call that a knife?"

 

"Tiny eh? Is that because you were named after your penis?"

 

I can't believe that was BOSM 2004. Where does the time go?

 

I'd like option 3 but this is UKRM so I'll take option 1 thanks!

noted, cheers!

 

I'm with Sky so most probably not but thanks for the suggestion

 

I know, I was almost embarrassed that its been so long since I last
made it to one. As it is, First born is now nearly 6 and little Lad is
fast approaching 2 so its not like they need mega care anymore. SWMBOs
away for BOSM but soon as I know EOSM dates I'll try my best to make
it one way or another. and no, I wont be bringing him )

 

and you think we give a ****?

 

Hey, you take care laddie, Tiny was my mate he was. He said so lots.

Was it really that long ago? Amazing how many of the tea shirts from that
era I still have.

 

Indeed.

 

I think the only one in the last 18 months is Marina. SteveH & Paul
Carmichael came close but managed to avoid walking into the light.

2011 is the year "you're a ****" was replaced by "go **** yourself".
The archives will tell you why.

I am sure there are those who would claim it is twice as reliable.

 

For sure.

 

What I do? It's probably obvious but after the usual end of year mayhem
yesterday followed by a 5 hour drive, I'm completely flaked today.
