If we do need a new site I'm willin to help. I'm a web developer so I could
write us a nice DB driven site if we need, and I have lots of friends who
are web graphic designers who'd help out with the design angle.
let me know if you wanna go forward on it

It's sad to hear of someone as keen as Michael not being able to carry on
contributing to the LUGNET community, but hopefully he will still be • active,
and his situation will improve in due course.

One thing he was interested to tackle was updating the UK LUG site
(http://www.uklug.org.uk/) which is hopelessly out of date.

Michael offered (http://news.lugnet.com/loc/uk/?n=5956), and was handed • over
by Richard Franks (http://news.lugnet.com/loc/uk/?n=6041), but didn't • appear
to have much subsequent success progressing his plans.

I am guessing that 'to release the pressure' that is one of the • casualties.

So, any takers?

Phil.

PS: Don't look at me, I have neither the time nor the appropriate • expertise.
PPS: Michael: If anything even more serious happens, like you have to give
up your LUGMAG or technic-uk sites, please let us all know so we can
consider carrying them on somehow.

Hi

Things have all gone wrong for me for the last few weeks. So i will be
shutting myself out of Lugnet for a few weeks or months.... but i will • sure
to make a slow return when i find a some employment...

I will continue to update Brickbay store, providing it works? But my • many
hours of uploading stuff is gone :-(

Lego Models are disappointing me now.. I remember the 88xx range and • these
are true models... I am sure Lego will release new and better models in • 2002
but i won't hang on to my breath....

The time when i am away will allow me to continue the work of my NVQ and • the
work on my Magazine website....

I do feel bad, i think its time to release the pressure...

So long...

--
Michael
