Whoa, what's going on Chief, just checked at 12.08 149 BOAY/56 RC

And a few more figs in what should be prime time for both channels, and just so I don't miss out on my daily abusive email 10.36am 76 BOAY/72 RC 10.47 92/74 10.55 62/78 11.04 48/82 11.15 51/86 11.24 67/98

In your case sand flies "At their worst, in the most intense sandfly-ridden spots of the West Coast, entomologists have recorded a bite rate of up to 1000-an-hour. In a couple of minutes, that could be hundreds of little bites, on your arms, neck, face, feet.Sandflies, on a minute level, rip and tear the flesh to open the skin and access blood, using anti-coagulating qualities of saliva to feed. It's histamine that causes the itching and swelling."

And the earth's magnetic poles did reverse this morning when blue blooded Hoskings(can't stand the walloper), talked about how well the coalition was working together, with no major problems.

If there is any query or resistance at all on this, as there can be when it comes to money, then will ask The Chief to use his account

Yes if that is ok with you

All okay to go ahead as above when you are ready Start a new thread with a new title to distinguish it from this one, and I will pin

I'll email him to remind him to look at his own website

Great energy that you bring to this site mustelid Makes a big difference Come in Chief, requires an account number and your blessing

Good point Jason, some of these charity set ups can clip the ticket too much......I think Easiest way for this to be handled is for The Chief to put up a bank account no and people can internet transfer money and make a thread comment Then he can just transfer money to the Vances Someone who still has an account on RC can mail Turnip Orange(Bob Vance) Ok with u Chief?

Thanks for that I can recall even after we had been going a couple of months, you lamenting the fact we still only had about an eighth of the online users, but slowly but surely we picked up ground, remembering all the time the fundamental philosophy, that what racing people wanted in a racing chat site was to be able to put forward their views on racing and have as many people as possible respond Simple really

Just countering the bs propaganda

And just checked this morning at 6.00, and much to my surprise BOAY 63 users online RC 25 And another quick check at 6.15 before I go out BOAY 103/RC 44!!

All I know, is that I have been keeping an eye on comparative users online since BOAY started, which you would have to say is the most important measure of an actively functioning chat site, in addition to actual posts made. For a long time, we were small, but significant, slowly rising to about 40-50%, then in the last week or so, we have drawn level, and at various times of the day, overtaken the multi coloured flip flop site. Not exactly scientific, but a dam good feel for how things are progressing And don't forget, all this from, not existing 6 months ago. In anyone's terms, that is phenomenal

People in NZ racing appear to have a long history of producing long reports to justify their existence, versus getting on and making things happen This is no different

Just look on their website NM

BOAY has been consistently running more users online over the last 2 days, so the momentum has shifted pretty quickly, so it is a big deal Just shows, all that racing folk mainly want to do is offer and debate their opinions on racing. Well done Chief, I know this is near and dear to your heart, but mostly well done and thanks to all the people who have supported BOAY

Come on NM, you've been with the ship since day one You might recall those very first weeks when we would be lucky to get 6-7 people online Too much crass posting and the site starts to get a negative reputation There has to be a balance between anything goes and the micro managed style we all hated on the multi coloured flip flop site

If it is Shad, it will be scrambled egg, in keeping with the nature of the site concerned

Out of LEFTfield Nikki Kaye

What was the final wrap on the catering Barry, excuse the pun

That you have spent all weekend walking up and down the Mission Bay promenade with a sandwich board on advertising BOAY. Users online numbers have been on average running neck and neck with the multi coloured flip flop site.
