The Rosy Glow Thread
Years ago, as a team building exercise at work, we had to do a 'Rosy Glow Sheet'. It's simple enough - all you do is write something nice about the person who posts above you. It made everyone feel valued and appreciated, and really helped the team gel.
There's an outrageously sentimental email story about someone who did something similar and then died, and it was produced at the funeral, blah blah blah. Please don't die, everyone posting here. I never want to be part of one of those emails.
Anyway, please write something really nice about the person posting above (sorry you've got to start with me but hopefully it'll take off after that). It'll be nice having to counteract all the recent animosity.
Thanks all, and before I forget, Happy Christmas

Phil seems a sensitive, kind, and thoughtful guy. Once, when I was embroiled in a rather negative debate with some of the others on the forum, he went to the trouble of stepping in to put my mind at rest just when I needed it.

Like me, James Doohan came to this thread hoping for pictures of Rosy Glow. Unlike me, James Doohan didn't genuinely know someone called Rosy Box at school.

Re: The Rosy Glow Thread
I'll take on the pair of them then (ooh err), seeing as there's a sudden rush (which I am sure I can slow down to a halt again).
I don't know much about Ian Dent, but somebody told me he is wonderful, and when I have occasionally been on Apterous he has seemed quite amusing.
Davy is very loyal to his colleagues, so good to have around when they're under pressure.

Actually, you can't assume something if you have no knowledge of the subject matter.
But, I do know that you, Alec, did a great remix of the Countdiwn theme song! It hasn't been used on the show though. They didn't Carey-fi it that much!
