    Please pass on my best wishes. Maybe she'll look in occasionally.

        Crikey!
        FF WAS hugely important in the foundation of and is still the Forum instigator.
        Details?

          I really hope it isn't true and that ff will return.....and my understaningd was that this forum is now 'Brexiter-free'?

          FF's patience with people seemed to be endless, but I suppose there came a time when even her reserves must have been exhausted. I do hope she returns.

              I suppose this was coming from the time when she handed the responsibility of running the forum over to Fenny & Co. and may be a matter of ‘mission accomplished’: the forum was originally set up mainly to discuss the matters concerning Radio 3. I very much doubt that she will return but very much hope that she will look in from time to time. Many thanks and all the best.

                As do I - she will be missed ....

                    She will indeed be missed if she has actually departed...

                        Good idea - the forum has lost some of its charm - I‘ve though a couple of times recently of giving it a rest!

                          Oh dear, FF will be sorely missed for her discernment, sagacity, wit and wisdom.

                            There's fairly low traffic on this forum compared with some others I visit. Sometimes I wonder if it's on the verge of collapse, but it hasn't happened yet. I find the views and information of some who visit here very helpful, and I hope that at least some of my own posts are interesting or useful to a few others.

                            Compared with some other boards the quality of postings is generally much higher, with less noise, and there are some topics I'm interested in.

                            Arguably it has had an impact on my bank balance and storage space, with many large "bargains" - CDs usually - picked up from the often very helpful bargains thread.

                            I have thought of abandoning this one on occasions, but it's always possible to go away and come back a month or so later - at least until the ultimate collapse.

                                I agree - this is a pleasant place to exchange information and views. Nearly always (some grits in the oyster, on occasion). Yes, FF is a real loss - it would be good if she were able to re-engage, to some degree, at a future date.

                                And the same for some other former members, who we miss........
