EDIT: 8th March. Need a volunteer for March, unless @kafla becomes active on here again. @Sterix is down for April.  May is vacant.

After that I will have done this for a year and it would be great if somebody else could take over the allocation of volunteers. Ta.

ORIGINAL POST

Hi all, we’ve managed to keep the Forum Faves monthly highlights review going since early Summer. But how we get folk to step forward to host is a bit hit and miss.

So I suggest that this thread can be the official place where people can volunteer to be the guest writer -  and I will try and keep it updated each month. Maybe after a few months of caretaking this thread, somebody else could take over. But we’ll sort that out later.

2020

November: @PaulAds

2021

January: @PeteS

February: @5 guys named Lars

March: @kafla (might need someone else, as he’s on a break from here.)

Please step forward if you’d like to do the honours for any month in the future. Many thanks.
Also thanks to the guest reviewers we’ve had so far...

Great stuff @PeteS and @5 guys named Lars, we do like volunteers. I will put you down for January, Pete, and February, Chris.

I’ll also edit my OP so everyone can see where we’re at.

Cheers guys 👍

Put me down for another spin in April. As it will coincide with my 50th birthday (ye gods! how did THAT happen?!!!) it seems an eminently suitable time to have another stab at it...

Blimey @Sterix, if you are going to be 50 you will have to take the Forum Senility Test before you can be trusted with April. Most of us so far have failed it 😫 But I will pencil you in to remain on the optimistic side.

And cheers @kafla I will put you down for March. Thanks.

OK I won’t start recruiting for May until early in the new year, as people are likely to forget they foolishly offered six months earlier  :)

But wow folks, we are ORGANISED. Now there’s a forum first!   ;D   ;D  ;D

We could do with a volunteer to host Forum Faves for each of March, April and May.

Please step forward if you fancy a go! The pay is below minimum wage, well zero actually. But the staff benefits are great. Free use of the forum villa in Barbados for a month and a private jet to take you over there. So whadaya waiting for? 😀
