here we are. For all those who are seriously worried about FB, why don't you set up with a pseudonym and just have no friends network on there? Its easy just to be able to join the forums you need to, and access the marketplace. It's sad to say that even with FB people largely accessing from mobile phones, the enormity of the membership on those groups like Austin 7 mean one can actually get comments and progress research etc. One post I made recently on here on cowls got absolutely no replies...
I think that is (sadly) understandable in that a lot of users have been there, done that and are more concerned with getting on and using cars these days - very creditable. But it's getting a little like another (music) forum that I followed for 20 years, of which 'critical mass' descended gradually - there was nothing left to say. It suddenly disappeared... and some of the few remaining users are meeting up physically this summer.
