Hi all

I'm still alive and well thanks. I am indeed very busy though with the new band and various other projects that include voluntary article writing, a car-spotting blog, a motor technology course which begins in September and a temp-job at my trusty courier company. I used to post religiously but found that since the move to a new server a few years back (2005? 2006? I can't remember!), the vibe on the forum radically changed and coming back on board, I feel like an outsider save for the old-skoolers that still knock around

Motorsport and motoring is still a big piece of my life and interests though I've not had time to commit to following any series completely this season except F1. I've been planning to get back posting but want to wait until I catch up on all of the 2013 action I've missed in BTCC, WRC and MotoGP first.

Hope all the other members are enjoying life

I still remember a great F1 fan from Canada (F1 Guru) who used to post a lot between 2001 and 2004/5. Great poster and a nice person too...

I think Vettel felt he needed a new PR man so made the call.

veeten is another member who needs to be mentioned. He's still here but his contribution is zero compared to what it used to be. Very sad, specially because he's a very funny and wise man.

Oh, interesting. I personally can hardly believe I have been here since 2006. That's seven years. What is even more astonishing that during this time period I feel I have improved absolutely loads as a person, so that I can hardly recognize myself from that time - perhaps more felt in everyday life rather than forums. However, one day I searched for my old posts here and at times I got an impression of being a hopeless fanboy. : But interesting anyway - while so much has changed in life, one thing has remained a constant - participating in MSF discussions. :

I agree with DexDexter that perhaps the whole forum thing is in a decline. However, I am personally not on Facebook and social media either, so I am not used to the like-buttons here that people at times use. :

I agree with pino's thought that it would be pleasant to meet you people too. So whenever someone comes to Estonia, you can let know. Or if I happen to go somewhere in a foreign country one day.

I see the point made by wedge that the forum has been in a decline. However, it is hard to quantify, because "fanboy-discussions" and personal attacks have always been part of forums, but maybe they have been more visible since we have fewer active members.

Weird that people mentioned soprano as it relates to singing and then we find that Tony Soprano has died.
Great actor, James Gandolfini (sic)
