I figure the statutes of limitations has passed on the bar smiley - towel. At least I hope so!

I don't think AW will be coming back. I heard a bit about her from Lady Scott (whom I'm still very friendly with), and she's got other internet interests now.

Too bad. She was very funny and a lovely person. smiley - brave

Pretty much, they were to be generally responsible for things under their titles about the site. Say someone was the Keeper of Tumble Bunnies? It would be his or her job to ensure that any around h2g2 were well groomed, fed and generally pampered.

And considering how many dusty corners there are in this place, that would be a huge task!
