It's not just a coincidence, but since hugh crashed, the traffic around this board has shot down, did he REALLY have thaqt much free time!?!?!?!?!?

Thats not very nice ,all the time Hugh was posting on the forum he wasn't driving Nessy or dougle .So ,in a way, his posts (and lets me fair gross spamming ) were actually going a long way to preserving two examples of the volvo's we all love. I wasn't going to mention the fact that we have also had eight new members join since Dougle's demise and Hugh's quiet period I don't think theres a link but who knows ! Seriously though I do hope Hugh soon gets a new 300 and returns to the fold in a more active way.

it wasn't intended to be nasty, i just know that whenever i came on there would always be new posts on the board, something new to read. but i didn't realise how much Hugh contributed

Is there a proverb like here in french "one girlfriend lost, 10 found later"? I'll transpose that to Hugh's situation :wink: One GLT lost... ....

True Dekay, it's quiet, maybe my fault too :oops:

I'm trying my best to be active in spite of my car's efforts to thwart me. I'm going to make a more determined effort to sort it all out than sitting here thinking about it :D

I came 10 minutes too late to the informatic course > I'm in the room but LOST (but it's not interesting at all, course 'database', I know a lot about that subject...)

I can post messages now during 4 hours :P :P
