I'm really hoping forums come back as a "thing" on the internet. It's a shame I was born so late and didn't get to enjoy them as long as I would've liked to. I think the first board I ever joined was in 2006-2007? It was a Metroid forum, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called.
It's weird going on the wayback machine and looking at MGSF, I feel like the time I spent there was so much longer than just a few years.

Yeah had a similar moment myself. Kind of amazed that the peak of my activity was only 2011-2013, feels like I spent way more time there.
Old school internet forum requires old school internet jokes. Congrats on 1337 posts, folks.

Fucking love working for a University. Easter rolls around and I get a week off fully paid and without losing any Annual Leave Allowance.
Work also becomes like final days at school, I just went to the ground floor of the office and stitched part of a banner and went to the pub after for a couple of pints. Fucking baller.
Anybody got any Easter Weekend plans?

What do you do Jass? My girlfriend is the same, works for some research group at a Uni and the research involves loads of school visits so this past week she’ll tell me about her day at ‘work’ like “Oh yeah we started a crafting club” or “Went to a pub garden and accidentally spent the whole day there” lmao
Well this is the first year the BANK that I work at is no longer open on BANK Holidays (no I don’t get it either) and the missus is away on a trip with a pal, so going to get absolutely trollied and catch up on all the games I haven’t had time to play recently. Honestly can’t wait

Ah I remember the days of having free time to myself, probably back when MGSF was active. Enjoy!

Lmao yeah I work at a Uni in London in their HR, helping people through leaver processes mainly, making sure they get their correct redundancy pay, providing references and helping people get Visas etc. There are literally so many days like that, feel like I'm in Primary School sometimes. 😭
Enjoy your well deserved holiday man! Any particular games on the list?

Blueblob That sounds like a banging weekend,
Got nothing special planned myself, just more renovation work. Bonus is, my brothers are off for the bank holiday as well - so I’ve got me some more labour at the cost of a takeaway

And Had a hot cross bun for breakfast this morning and an Easter egg last night as I don’t expect to get any Easter goods in China lmao
And that’s exactly why I’m delivering some Bri’ish Easter Goods to my friends who live in China like the good little Porter I am. Got my travel companion at the ready. (Second of his lineage. Thanks again Jassassino)
In case I don’t pop in beforehand; Have a good Easter everyone!
