    All -

    You will be happy to hear that your most excellent fellow forum posters Bannasidhe and smacl have been made mods here in A+A, in addition to Turtwig and myself.

    Both have now been given a copy of the folder containing the inthread notes and running jokes, the keys to the card drawer, access to the forum's cluestick (currently clipped onto the office wall in boards HQ), and unsupervised access to the forum banhammer, currently held in a secure cupboard in an adjoining building. Neither Bannasidhe nor smacl will have the slightest hesitation in deploying any of the four, or indeed, all four together, in the finest disciplinarian traditions of A+A.

    I bid you all give them both a most hearty welcome!

    I was born within shouting distance of Shandon myself and as A+A is an equal opportunities forum, posters from less-fortunate areas of the country than Cork will not be discriminated against.

    That's four mods for four in the anti-pineapple-on-pizza camp IIRC, it's clear where this forum's biases lie...

    Ah, progress already!!! I see a brave new dawn for A&A.

    And it seems we are not the only ones with an aversion to pineapple on pizza....
