I would love to meet up with my old 'mates' from FOC - I reckon it could be great fun and very interesting! There are lots of other members too, that I would love to meet in person - some in UK (which I suppose could be possible), some in USA, which would be extremely doubtful, unfortunately. And some in Australia, also extremely unlikely, which is a shame.

YouTube - FG Video Aug 2008

Some pictures are repeated in the different videos, some names you may not recognise. One of the videos I would have liked to put here was not available due to a copyright problem with Sony Music - the one that was FG girls only (went with the FG studs video). Therefore if anybody is planning another video of current members, please check that any backing music is out of copyright date !

I know that these videos may have been posted on here before, but I thought it would be nice to have them all together for members to see, particularly members who have joined since 2008 ! :-6 :yh_bigsmi

Most of the UK members are within driving distance so meets are always possible.

So, I would most like to meet:

Nomad and his Dad

Hoppy

Kathy Ellen

Carla

Chonsi

There are others I would like to meet but only to punch them In the face............

OMG Gilly, what wonderful memories! To see so many people who no longer come to FG and to put faces to a couple I hadn't seen before. What a beautiful beautiful post. :-4

Thankyou for sharing so many memories, I LOVED watching those again. :-4:-4:-4

Yes it's good to see those videos again. I wonder where all those on the videos, who are no longer posting on FG, have gone to. I do know where some of them are, but I haven't the faintest where the ones I haven't seen before, are now. Pastures new, hey ho! Perhaps somebody can fill in the blanks? It would also be nice if somebody could do an up-to-date video, but don't look at me as I aint got a clue ! :yh_rotfl

Thank you so much for posting the videos Gill. They always make me cry...missing friends who no longer post and especially hearing Carol sing. Just makes me weepy thinking about why we have had our spats and why members have left.

Wish I could go back in time and tell everyone that I've hurt, misunderstood or annoyed that I am so sorry if I've done anything to offend you.....and I know that I have done that, and I'm sorry. I miss my friends here that don't post anymore.

Life is so short, as we all know, and yet we argue over small stuff that's soooo not important.

I agree with everything you've written here Kathy. :-6

The only other thing that made me sad was seeing Cheshire Cat again. She was so young. So sweet and full of life. Such a very sad loss. :-1

Thanks Rap,

That's why I try to remember CheshireCat's birthday on December 8th. I forgot last year...:-1 She was a lovely person and someone is still supporting her account as it's still here.

She was too young to pass and so suddenly...

They certainly did. Like the others said after me, seeing Cheshire Cat again made my heart stop for a moment. She was a good laugh and a great friend to everyone and, of course, she loved her animals so much. Her death was a shock to everyone I think as it was so sudden with no warning and it still seems to me that she gave her life for BR. I have kept her smiley shield as a memoriam.
