Who went down with the ship?

#6235

Postby Julian » November 18th, 2016, 8:11 am

This is a the opposite of UncleE's "Is anybody there?" thread. I'm wondering which major contributors to the now-closed VCT board over at Fool UK haven't made their presence known over here and whether anyone knows their intentions.

The one I've spotted (or rather not spotted) is timbo although there is a timbo user name registered here (memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=696) but no posts at time of writing this. Anyone know what's happened to him?

Have any of the other VCT board "big beasts" not made it over (yet)?

Timbo007 was at the Crown Place AGM yesterday and has promised a report over this weekend - this will be a much richer board with him on board!

Good news on Timbo - he certainly appears to know what he is talking about !

Great news about timbo.

He's here but very quiet so far. His single post to date was on UncleE's "Is anybody there?" thread on this board ...

Glad to hear timbo is making the move. We'd be an impoverished board without his wisdom. But I think his activity on TMF has reduced a little in recent years: a Fool putting quality firmly ahead of quantity.

I think the other TMF VCT stalwart not yet seen here is tolmers? Hope he too is somewhere in the pipeline.

I recall Tolmers was going off a while back to smoke three pipes "over the Edge" lamentables......

Trust he didn't succumb?

I've already reported in on the "Is anybody here?" thread, but it's nice to be missed.

Now I need to work out the posting of tables on here following the updates from Northern and Baronsmead this week, my cash holdings table is due for an update this weekend.

Just back from a Morocco cruise. I have migrated over and will post again in due course.
