No flounce, just a goodbye. I have enjoyed the fun, wit and skill of other people, so thanks for that. I have also enjoyed the company. I am less sure of the rather cowardly use of anonymous tags - no doubt, this message will bring some more, but that's OK.

I am in an untenable position now.

I like to pretend that my subs have not been all about 'me'. Some have scored (I have one on the ticker tape at the moment), but I have clearly offended people. I will miss the company and warmth of a number of people. Rest assured that I am not as awful as I sound. I know that the site will continue to grow and remain a great success. Bless us all. Plucky. xxx

Dunno what's got to you, but take a few days off if you feel the need, I don't post daily, and we'll see you then.
Have a beer, watch England v Germany, then Wires v Leeds tomorrow, have more beer, then have a pizza, more beer, and chill.
Then log back in and say Hi(c)

So you HAD the fish ! I know we agreed to split the bill but some of us only had a salad.

WHY are you in an 'untenable position'?

Dr Mop.
You can only get 5 stars now, not ten.
That's why he's un ten able.
I may be wrong, but it's a good a theory as any.
I also think I must be in an un ten able position too, but I have a partner who understands and compensates.

By definition, I'm in an unthirtysevenable position since last March.

If you lie curled up in a ball, you are most likely in an unsixtynineable position.

Not necessarily, Q ...

At least it's not an untenaladyable position, so let's count our blessings.

If Plucky doesn't want it, can I have his flounce?

Mr.3374 is exactly right. If you mellow out a bit, and filter what's in your head before posting about it, then you might not get on peoples' tits quite so much.

I think there's room here for you and for us all, but only if we share the space nicely, keep it light and don't try to dominate.

So, squeeze up a bit chaps, that's it, lovely.

Plucky, there's space here for you if you want to make an effort to fit in. S'up to you.

And so we say farewell. As the sun sinks slowly in the west and Biscuit electricity usage sinks to a very competitive Economy 7 level,we say cheerio Mr Munky....cheerio.

Chin up, Plucky - you'll need it: I've written a poem ...

How many flounces to the ounce?
Has the one-star fairy pounced
again? Plucky Munky's lost his bouncey
joke de vivre; thus announced
farewell, goodbye and renounced
our Biscuity acquaintance.

Cheerio, PM. I'd like to think that you came back once to read all the nice responses you got to your final post, but you've gone. So I won't bother saying I'll miss you and wishing you all the best, 'cos you won't see it.

(But if you do pop back for a sneaky look, do let us know).

You must stay, Plucks. Where would you go? I can't abide the thought of you in the embrace of Joan Bloggs, or worse. Come to think of it, there isn't any worse. Where will we be without you singing softly in the background, like a nightingale wounded in the shoulder?

Wales is currently under-represented on NB and your rash resignation does nothing for ethnic balance.

Turn again Plucky, thrice newsticker awardee (more, but it doesn't fit with my Whittington allegory).

In the words of the immortal Leslie Crowther "Come on down" or, if memory serves me "Oh dear, you've got another cabbage!" You could be that person to revive Double or Drop.

Stay the course, Plucks.

Power to your shoulder!

I sometimes think this whole think is an elaborate (but, not very interesting)hoax. Or, a disguised university student gathering research for a paper on cyber-bullying.

Au revoir Plucky. I'm sure you'll be back (but don't view the England v Germany match to chill out, it won't help).

as Nadia Comanech dismounted ,It was a split decision and she proved it was worth a ten.although it looked a one in some judges eyes

@ arrghgarry....Because "LOL" is never seen on this forum, I'm guessing it's taboo to say LOL...but what other word in our language better captures my thoughts than "LOL"...?
