I see you've had no response to this Bobby's Girl. It's no surprise really is it? I've been away a while and I've come back to nothing new really.
What is the matter with you Calverton folks old and new???

I think a lot of people read the posts but they don't add anything. Maybe they feel intimidated because we are such an articulate group.

Yes, you could be right there. You would think that some of them would want to join in though wouldn't you? There are 80+ folks signed up on the forum now.

Yes I've noticed how the membership has just soared. Surely they're not all expats. I've spoken with one relative still living in Calverton and she said she'd heard about the site. She's lived there all her life and her father's family have lived there since the 50s but they have never visited. Likewise I have another expat friend who still has family in Calverton and they've all heard about it but never visited. I think the hardest thing is actually setting up the site. Visiting and posting is easy. Mind you there is a silly old bear who yells at people. That might put some of them off.

Yes, quite a few of my family members now live in and around Perth. Not sure if they look on here though.
I think he's a teddy bear at heart!

CTR Clearly not even "New Members" bother to read this well-intentioned Thread. Pity really as as it could have been a good intro to the fact that 99% of "Posters/Postings to this site are excellent - OK you do get the odd Rsole/non PC comment but that's life!
