Wow, my very own thread! Can't say I've ever been welcomed like this before, thanks!
And its nice of you to respond. I suspect a number of new members are put off a bit by the fact quite a lot of us already know each other's online personalities and have met each other, so that our chat may appear cliquey to newcomers. Please don't let that put you off.
Our interests and experience are varied, but one thing that never happens is for anyone to totally rubbish anyone else's enthusiasms, unlike the official Radio 3 board (usually referred to here as TOP -The Other Place.)
The moderators, voted in by a poll among members last autumn are Morticia, Ron Dough and Oliver Sudden (try saying the last two names quickly). Good eggs, one and all.
I hope you enjoy contributing and reading here in future.
All the best.
