Hiya all,

It's been about 3 years or so since i last used this site, i used to have quite a few contacts back then and spent many a good hour chatting away to good friends i made. My name back then was Deb from Barnsley. I've read quite a few of the board and don't really recognise any of the names unfortunately. It was at a time when some people on here where doing some charity work and i remember something about a bear on a journey around the country...

Would be nice to know if some of the people i chatted to are still using this site.

Deb x
