Nothing to do with golf, fortunately!😕
In an effort to drum up more (hopefully regular) contributers to the weekly Wednesday© thread, Andy and I are able to offer a small "joining" gift, courtesy of Lee & Beoworld, to members who make their first ever posts on the Wednesday© Thread (and then hopefully go on to become part of the weekly cast). The aim is to convert regular readers into regular posters - if you often read and enjoy the Wednesday© thread but have always been too shy to post then this offer is targeted at at you!
First time participants this Wednesday© will win themselves an "Open Mind" CD from B&O. You aren't expected to stay all night, just drop by, say hello and either pick up the conversation you encounter at the time or else post your answer to the starting question(s) that appear every week in the opening post of the thread. Your answers to these questions are welcome at anytime during the thread, regardless of what is being discussed at the time you join.
For those that aren't quite sure of what it is that goes on, I'll attempt a short explanation of a typical Wednesday© -
It takes place every week and generally starts, barring disaster, at 7pm UK time.
To get a mental picture of what is happening, imagine a groups of pals, sat around a table in a pub, having a bit of a laugh while discussing any old nonsense over a drink or three - nothing heavy, no philosophy, just typical "mates round a table" banter.
The opening post, normally from Andy or I, will include a question of sorts to which folk can answer to break the ice and get things rolling. During the course of the evening the conversation will generally wander wildly off topic but answers to the original question will always be welcome and will allow latecomers to join in the conversation at anytime.
Certain subjects are "barred" from Wednesday© discussions, this list currently includes -
B&O, Apple (and their products), AV in general, Cars (and Engines), Cameras, Watches and Football.
Whilst the "ban" is good natured it is intended to prevent the thread deteriorating into lists of model numbers and specs and the type of collector's discussion that would cause some (including myself) to throw themselves under passing buses to avoid. If a banned item is mentioned, or appears in a photo within the thread the offender will be "Woop"ed by someone to remind them of the rules. Don't be afraid, it's all done with tongue firmly in cheek, there won't be any bruises (none that'll show up in court, anyway)😜!
As the Wednesday© thread has been running for some years know you may find references to past events or posts or find members referred to by completely different names for reasons that aren't clear. I would urge you to stick with it and just go with the flow, if there's anything you need or want to know along the way then just ask, the Wednesday© folk are renowned for being the friendliest bunch on the 'net!🙂
If you've ever read and enjoyed the thread I urge you to have a go and join in, after all the worst thing that can happen is that you reveal your innermost, deepest secrets whilst under interrogation or you make a complete and utter fool of yourself! Either way, it'll only be there for the world to read for one week, the following Wednesday© sees the previous thread erased forever to protect the innocent🤔
See you there🤒.................................
