I've had sod all.
I originally arrived because of the pictures, one of the hobbies is photography so by using this site I can expand my hobby & visit places I would never normally, like Bloody Bognor, to take pub photos, and maybe pop into a few pubs whilst there.
For me this site has expanded my hobby and travel, without it I would never had made the trip to Arundel for instance, or gone into the Mucky Duck [White Swan] JDW in Pompey. Both of which were worthwhile

Farway has explained my reasons. Loved photography for years and always carried a camera on me. In recent years pub photos have revived my interest and given me a new reason to get about. Having a vehicle of Lynne's to drive meant I could not drink in every pub I took a shot of.
Someone in Hereford, a number of years ago, was walking past the Bulmers Cider Plant when tragically a huge storage vat exploded and became airborne.They took a photo and it was syndicated making quite a sum for the photographer. Now with qood quality cameras on mobile phones most people have the means to take such a shot but how many would have the presence of mind to do it ?
It seems that Bite's PM feature is turned of, except between Regulars. Chris has put in an appearance, three in fact. I just hope it's a prelude to something effective...
Pubs are a hobby, real ale is a passion. Oh, and like me dogs, fear no evil..........
He can put in as many appearances as he likes. I lost any faith or respect for him months ago and he wont win me back. He has not once addressed the very issues that have made people desert the site and carries on oblivious. If by posting a couple of messages about storing PM's and the Pub of the Day repeats are his way of saying "look guys, I really do care" then it's no surprise we are all here.
Just polished off a bottle of red wine. Does it show?

Nope, you still look like Homer...........

I think that's the previously disfunctional forum pm - I imagine the main site pm will be working just as previously. Like Roger, I doubt that chris is building up to anything effective - on the very day he should have been concerned about evidence/notification that some key players were giving up, he simply made a joke about the rpotd not working and later 'closed' an offensive thread but left the comments visible. One pub added in the last 30days from, I believe, a list of a coupla thousand?
