Taking a break from Moderating
As the thread title suggests, I’m taking a break from moderating this forum. My workload is increasing by the day and sadly a close family member is unwell with a prognosis that is not at all good. In a list of priorities – and no matter how much I love you all ( ) - FT will have to come behind family, earning a crust and sleep.
I’ll be around from time to time to moan about things, but otherwise leave you in the more than capable hands of my Moderator colleagues.
Happy travels and play nicely!

Swanhunter, I hope your family member gets better as soon as possible - my thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time. I hope you are able to come back to knock us into shape in the very near future. ^
Your knowledge and experience will be missed and I hope you are not away for too long

Swanhunter... Oh Hunter of Swans...
I am very sorry to hear your bad news in terms of family and of course, this, you family and other commitments must take precedence over an IBB.
I hope things improve for you, and wish you all the very best with dealing with what may be a very difficult time in your personal life.
We are all hear for you if you need us.
Warmest regards and thanks for all your efforts and time you have input into these boards.

Sorry to hear this Swanhunter, particularly in the light of the personal circumstances which I hope will ultimately have a good outcome.
We will all miss your timely inputs and level headed approach to moderating.
Good luck for the future.

All the best Swanhunter! Even at my young age, I have experienced having family members become very ill, in particular one very close family member, it just makes you see how important that particular person's presence in your life is, something which many of us and especially at that point I took for granted!
Take care, keep your head held high ^
(PS: We will all try to behave here on the BAEC forum!)
