Shocking!! And one would expect the forum needing the ultra latest technology.

Hi Frans,

Darem nog nie. Ek het wel skerper teenmiddele ingespan om ons forum te beskerm. En raai wat? Dit kos ons niks. Mahala. The wonders of open source software.

Hi all,

This has been the toughest week for me. This is the most fun I have had (second to my 2 wedding nights and my daughter's birth) when it came to setting up this baby. I am pleased with what I have learned and this is something no-one can take away from me (the skillset I have developed). Thank you one and all for having the faith in me to have pulled this off.

I am glad you grabbed us by the ears and pulled us in. If we had to start this without your IT knowledge we would still be sitting around trying to make up our mind which way to go. With you as webmaster and MN doing the setup what better team do you need

Oh, don't throw away Pieter Oosthuizen. I see he works for Gijima and if I am not mistaken (and I stand to be corrected) they do IT work.
