You really don't appreciate what was lost until it is gone. My appreciation goes to the Barrow Wight and everyone else for this spirited return.

Well I'm back.
May I add my thanks to those above to those who made this happy return possible. I had to say good by to the home that had been in my family for 3 generations the week the board went down and I felt the loss of my cyber home as keenly. The past couple of days have been tantalising... how long does it take to dismantle a reputation system? How long to upgrade I pondered rhetorically.. and here we are..... sorry but there is something I have to do: SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EE... Ok going to refresh the memory... SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I have heard of a theory that if we are living for too long in an idylic state, we get used to it and no longer perceive it. At that point, the best service life can grant us is to grab us by the collar and throw us out into the cold.
I assume that's what just happened. But, O the happiness of being back inside our warm - erm, cold, but our good and old and well-known barrow! Eternal thanks to everyone who rushed in to the rescue. This place indeed is our home. I just hope all the lost souls manage to find this place again and wander back in!

He drew a deep breath. "Well, I'm back," he said.
