Stepping down....

[Mickp]

I have made the difficult decision to move away from the forum.
By this I mean that I will be standing aside from all duties that are forum related, both as an owner and administrator.
A lot has changed for me in the last couple of years and I have found that I no longer have the time to continue in the roles which I have been doing.
Having been with the forum since it's beginning ( 2008 ) and in an administration role for most of that time it has been so pleasing to see our forum grow.
The amount of information that is available here now and the willingness of members to assist one another in many and various ways is brilliant.
Hope you will all continue to assist the remaining owners Derek, Diane & David plus the Moderating team in their endeavour's to continue improving the forum in the future.
I will be around for the next couple of weeks while I finalise a few things here and after that will be an occasional visitor.


ps. This is not an April fool's joke, it's way to late in the day for that.

Thank you for your intitiative and great foresight, Mickp.
This forum fills a niche that other branches of aviculture could only look at and wish to emulate.
To the remainingowners, I appreciate and support you as best I can.
Cheers and Best Wishes.

Now who will I ask if I forget my Admin password?

Seriously though, you will be missed. Many thanks for your hard work behind the scenes. I hope life moves along for you and your family in the way you wish.

Mick, I haven't been online recently so I'm sorry I missed this. I hope you log on every now and then to check up
Thank you for all your years admining AFF, you've done a fantastic job, and you've done so much for all of us - you will be greatly missed. Geez, with you, David and Diane all stepping down, it feels like the old crew is breaking up a bit - Looking forward to any contributions you make to the forum in the future, and I hope you enjoy a bloody well-eared rest, mate
