Its Crush A Grape (with love) Day!

[Seahorse]

I'm not done yet but my next batch of luvvin is for my fellow mods, Zazen and PW. Times of real trial and tribulation are few and far between for us but I couldn't have better company

[Finedon.Dandy]

My next crush (that sounds awful doesnt it!) is for Di (andi&di) for being my rock the past few weeks. She has always been there for me when I needed her, even when I thought I didnt need anyone but then found I did. You know what you do girl - thanks for being there..............

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((CRUSH)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Lynda, so random and batty
In the dishwasher she washed her tattie

Stace(y) is a fan of Bean,
Wayne is a total fun machine!

FindonDandy is always there
With a bit of tender loving care.

PigletWillie gives great gardening advice
And bakes lots of cakes with sugar and spice!

Zazen is a mod, she's the best.
Shes got loads of great ideas to suggest!

Bobble Ponge travels far and wide,
His silly comments never subside.

Nicos dose nothing by half,
she is great fun and a really great laugh!

Flum is a real good friend,
Any gardening problem she will amend.

Prettiful is Rhona and Piskie is cool...
Each of you on the grapevine is a shiny jewel!

So on the crush-a-grape day,
Heres a hug.
Love Happy Bunny

Everyone is so great and that is what makes the Vine such a nice place to come to. I've been here nearly 3 years now and can't imagine finding such a lovely forum anywhere else.

This will be a long one....

Long before the Grapevine became the huge community it is now, there was a great group of people here, who made the forum into the friendly, supportive, informative place it is now. They happily shared their knowledge, gave encouragement to newcomers, joked, laughed, hugged, shared their seeds, and gave everyone an alternative to the narky, back-biting and patronising forums you can find elsewhere.

We should all appreciate them, most of them are still here and long may they continue to be. I will apologise if I've missed anybody out, but you can identify them yourselves by looking at the Join Date, and give them a virtual bow

Hi Sarah! Sorry to pinch your list, but you are much better at putting this into words than me. Love Bernie

[HeyWayne]

Oh I could crush so many of you!

The generosity, kindness and understanding from so many of you.

I've only been here 2 years but it feels like I've known some of you a lot longer (and I mean that in the nicest sense).

I started writing a list but my battery's low and there are just too many to thank/crush/love.

The genorosity shown to LadyWayne, Bean and myself over the last few months has truly been humbling - bringing me to tears on a few occasions.

((((((WAYNECRUSH)))))))

*apologies about the size - big is just what I am.

[selfraising]

I only joined at the beginning of this month but everyone has been so kind and supportive. So a BIG thankyou to everyone for being very welcoming and putting up with some of my naiive questions!!!!!!!
CRUSH TO YOU ALL!!!!!!!

[Nicos]

Ya know folks...I just can't do this

There are so many of you who have made the Vine like a second home to me that I'd hate to leave anyone out....you all know who have interacted with me- (and it wasn't all that painful was it????)

Thanks to you ALL for advice and laughs and seeds and plants and chooks...and well- just for being part of my life!

[nelliegemini]

Well a huuuge cruuuuush to everyone who gives me advice. I am getting to the stage of:

ebay - ask the vine
vegetable growing - ask the vine
recipes - ask the vine
stop drinking - ask the vine
how to stop being sidetracked by reading the vine - ask the vine
the only thing I haven't asked the vine is how to grow parsnips!

crushes all

[zazen999]
