Call for Admin Role!

As this forum needs a revival, it is difficult to run this forum alone. Catherine (@wynstep) has not answered to my previous post. I don’t know if she will. I don’t even know if she could harm the site. So, I have removed her admin priviledge.
A panel of three admins would be perfect. Even two would be fine.

Criteria:
1. Sincere for the cause of the forum.
2. Active participation in forum activities.
3. Innovative.

Comment on this post by Thursday, Janauary 7, 12 noon (GMT).

I’m calling all the authors of the forum here. I don’t know how many of you are still active and want to contribute here. You should at least know about the changes happening here. Please let me know if you want to continue contributing as author.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you all – and since we’re not meant to publish loads of pictures here in order not to slow the site down, here’s a link to my Christmas photo post:

Christmas Lights on the Cutty Sark

This forum seems a bit dead recently…

…so in addition to wishing you all a merry Christmas, this is a wake-up call – in case any of you would like to continue here, it might be a good new year’s resolution to return here to post and chat again.

So I hope you will forgive me for tagging you all (I will not keep doing this):

Thank you @arwen1968 and @piyushavir for keeping up this schedule.

Shutterbug Showcase

There is no bigger pleasure than the family time spent together playing an indoor game with joy. Everyone is busy in their lives. Father goes for work, mother also goes for work, children go to school .At home, mother has to do household work, children have to do their homework or go to play outdoors with friends. There is hardly anytime left to spend with family. The whole week goes in a frenzy. It is the weekends that allow for spending a quality time with family, so why not utilise it with playing a game that is entertaining and at the same time helps in bringing everyone together in the house. Its not a wrong saying that goes, it is the house that is made of bricks but it is the home that is made of members. While such family times also give you a better reason to smile and rejoice. Photo clicked by me while playing the game of ludo with family.

My weekly photo propmt for today:- ‘smiles’.The next week’s propmt for @suzannebowditch is walls. 🙂

HELP! Bloggers World needs YOU!!!

Okay, that may sound a bit over-dramatic but the truth is that while we had a few awesome days filled with extraordinarily rocking stats in April and May, June has been a bit dismal.
