I'm familiar with most of the names from reading old threads. I think most moved on by the time I joined about 3 years ago or shortly thereafter. The patch was a hopping place.

Saddened to hear that. That was a nice obituary. If I want one I'll probably have to write it myself. |

Slowroll is still around on other forums, but not quite so active as he used to be. Daveg is still around. If you don't think so, just suggest that he died.

Most of the others didn't hang around for much more time six months. I've been yelled at on other forums for asking about members that have moved on.
Quoting one JP, "It's the internet! People come and go!"

Yes remember Ed James, maker of Mullberry pipes, killed by his own step grandson. I believe he was an expert on Kaywoodie pipes. I sent him as you will see a very unusual UPS PACKAGE, cut it in 2, ups man said that was the most unusual thing he had ever sent. He made me 4 pipes, gave one to Scrooge which endearehim to me as he revered Ed.

Pmon loved his cats, to the unknowning they would think he was brutal, but he loved to chase them. They would run close to him, stop and the chase would begin.

Anyway, I don't think you'll be yelled at here for asking about absent comrades of the pipe. Not from this quarter, certainly. |

That was pretty bizarre about Ed James, he came across as about as gentle a person you could ever meet on a forum.
To be murdered was a senseless act, by a lunatic… he should have offed himself if he wanted to kill someone.
Glad to hear that Scrooge is still with us, Christmas is not the same without his presence!
