    I'm sad that you feel this is the type of forum where 'regulars' only want to talk to 'regulars' but of course nobody has to do a Q&A if they don't want.

    I'll cross you off now- you are welcome to change your mind, and everyone is welcome in this forum. :)

    Agree. In fact I was only saying last week its great that it feels like more people are getting involved on the christmas forum, especially having been a lurker for years, its great that its so welcoming, whether you post once a day, once a week or once a year.

    100%, regardless of how often you post, viewing etc everyone is a ‘regular’ and would hopefully feel as welcome.

    I know I'll enjoy it when the time comes, it's more nervous anticipation.

    Thanks to the great suggestion by DVB, we are launching our spiritual sequel to the "Know Your Elves" series (which started 5 years ago!!) :eek:

    It's a general Q&A sessions with our wonderful elves here.

    This time we'll be exploring non-Christmassy questions, favourite food, movie, etc all up for grabs.

    It won't be too personal or intrusive but it will be a whole pile of fun and a nice way to pass the offseason! :)

    So if you're interested in taking part, let us know here!! :)
