Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

My younger brother died July, 2020 and my older brother died Jan, 2021 so that just leaves me as the last living brother and I am going to hang on as long as I can.

Know where you're at.
Last of brothers died 2018.
There's just me and one sis left out of eight of us.
All went well before what's considered a normal expiry date, most quite young.
Looks like I'll be one of the few males in our line to reach 65, in less than 2 weeks time.
Great grand-dad was the only one I knew of to make it past that.

It's still weird not having that last brother around- mostly to show up for coffee.
No getting used to it, but I have learned to live with it.

Regards,

Doc Sharptail
