Happy Easter to you too.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Chit-chat
Going on holiday is perfectly acceptable!
Don't worry Winchester, I for one am not going anywhere!

Re: Chit-chat
How are our UK members doing? I've been reading about the latest on Brexit in the papers, how some people are stocking up on supplies fearing the worst and about the discord around the rejected deal. It seems like a stressful time.

Re: Chit-chat
No more than a week, I think...maybe less time.
I guess something needs paying?
Hope we aren't about to be shut down completely...

Re: Chit-chat
I hope not! It looks like the pictures were hosted by tinypic, which is shutting down. So I think the forum is still fine - it's just that the pictures are gone. If the boss finds another host, we could have them back up, but as long as the words are here, I'm happy!
Edit: from the tinypic website - looks like it's closing today, and the pics have been down since the 9th:
"TinyPic is shutting downDue to an inability to support a high-quality free digital service that derives 100% of its revenue from ever declining on-site revenues, TinyPic will be permanently shutting down on September 16, 2019. Because we want to give you as much notice and information as possible during our transition, please carefully review the following information.
What Should You Do Now?If you have a TinyPic user account, login and download all of the images you wish to preserve. Sorry, bulk download is not an option on TinyPic so you will need to download each image separately.I
MPORTANT DATES:
August 20, 2019 - no new images may be uploaded on TinyPic.
September 9, 2019 - hosted images will no longer be viewable on 3rd party websites. Because we are an anonymous hosting site and therefore cannot provide notice by e-mail to our users, we have opted to replace all hosted images with a temporary message directing them to this notice.
September 16, 2019 - last day for TinyPic account holders to access their accounts and download their images.
We would like to personally thank you for choosing TinyPic as your hosting service. Many of you have been utilizing our services since we launched back in April 2004. As you look for a new hosting service, please consider selecting one of the premium plans offered by our sister site, Photobucket."
I don't know if other hosting sites are going the same way?

Yes, I've seen that happening too. Sometimes the internet seems very transient.

Re: Chit-chat
In the past it was just the end of a forum, but these days it feels a bit more like the end of the show...

Re: Chit-chat
Glad to know it's just that the website that hosts the image. I have to admit I wasn't sure what to read into it, if anything.
I know how you feel, besleybean... Sometimes it feels that way.

Nothing we can do, of course...

I'm seeing Amanda in theatre next month and Andrew(via NT link) in November.

Re: Chit-chat
Yes, it is sad that the pics are gone. I do not have the time or the energy to create something new but I will remain here as a mod as long as the forum exists. 
As for the show: I still feel that the fans are owed an answer. There have been no news whatsoever for two and a half years which I think is not fair. This is not a film but a show. I think it would be fair to state if it is over or just postponed. I cannot remember any other show in which there was such a long wait for news, especially since the creators have repeatedly stated that they had planned five series.
IMO this has nothing to do with being demanding but with fairness towards a very patient and enthusiastic fandom.

Re: Chit-chat
Well I know Steven has always said the same: there has never been a decision of no more...but nobody has time for it at the moment.
For what it's worth: in recent interview, even Andrew said he would be open to more and his character is dead!
