Jimcracker7[magiclink.rip gone altogether. im back.in my home from home.

the death nell as sounded, and the link known as the (magic link) will be just a thing on a page, that goes to no-where.from the 9th feb.
-
i will have the library, but not the same, but is free, and can go after an hour or so at the cyber,i have to pay for,
-
there will be some that thought of digis as intelopers,be glad we are going, whats left, others, that saw us in the heyday as top contributers, boars head, teashoppe and more.
-
there wont be time for guides or post entries, the library ones are miles to slow.and i have plenty to update on the forums at the cyber.
-
health and weather as made it i can only get to town once or twice a week, till it gets warmer.
-
im going to put the days as the go on my tag, and watch the h2g2 slip slowly away day by day from here at home. (the clocks ticking) smiley - blacksheep J.H.D.

Reality Manipulator

Jim I am very sorry to see it happen and that you and others who come here using the magic-link either go completely or only go when they are able to go to the library or internet cafe.

Jim,

You are not alone,at least you will have the library and cyber to at least visit sometimes.

They are both a no go for me.

You will have to give me your email address on the box.

I have it somewhere but where I dont know.
After the house was done it and I had to clear things out so did the book with email addresses in.

So theres no hope at all for us poor digi users.

If you ever find a way to get us back in please let me know.

Hers hoping but I know it will never be a no no but who knows.
