However before we retire theres just a few things I wana say:
When we joined this site, the last thing I ever expected was to make friends, we thought we would be meeting the odd couple here and there, but that nothing platonic would ever come from it. How wrong I was. We have made some really good friends & formed some really strong bonds with people on here. This site in my opinion, is the best site for swingers going, no other site comes close, regardless if its an Irish based swing site or an international one. This is the place to be if you want a well regulated & moderated site.
Secondly, have I made mistakes? Have I pissed people off? Have I annoyed some to the point of my actions being irredeemable? Yes I have. I know I have. Yes Ive been an idiot in the past, not listening to good advice being sent my way, and being bullheaded and stupid at the same time. Ive hurt people's feelings in the past by being inconsiderate & rude, and sometimes borderline obnoxious. I have no excuse, other than pure blind stupidity.
But what has struck me most about the good people of S4I is that the vast majority of you were willing to forgive and move on. That to me was something that struck a chord. Friends were willing to let bygones be just that, bygones. Its hard to put into words what Im trying say here, so if I seem like a bit of a sap while you are reading this then youre getting the picture in full colour.
If I can give some advice on here, then it would be the following:
Treat others with respect, because I guarantee that you will get it back 10 fold.
Dont be nasty, theres really no need for such behaviour, and its hurtful to others.
Be openminded, theres nothing smaller than a closed mind
Single guys at parties are a good thing, and I can say that from experience
If someone gives you advice, take it on board, it will only do you good
If you are pissed off and seeing red - stay away from the forums
Live & let live - just because you disagree with someones orientation doesnt give you the right to feel above them
Treat everyone equally - we are all here for the same thing
Dont rise to fights in the chatroom - show some restraint - youll look the better person if you do.
When you are in the wrong, admit it and apologise - even if its very hard to do so.
Read over that angry line youre about to post before you hit enter (Best advice I was given)
Dont be a loudmouth - be discreet, remember that people's privacy is paramount.
Dont listen to gossip - rumours can be way off the mark.
Make up your own mind about people - Dont allow others to convince you that someone isnt nice.
And finally... please remember that its nice to be nice
So thats it, thank you all for your friendships, and remember just cos I wont be in chat or forums anymore doesnt mean Im gone. A lot of you have my mobile & external email so please keep in touch, it will be great to hear from you every now and again :)
We wont be cancelling our account on here as Im sure we will come out of retirement every now and again to have the odd party at ours. But that wont be until at least next year. Plus we will log in every so often to check our mailbox.
So until we meet again somewhere down the road, keep on rocking in the swing world :thumbup:
:wave::wave::wave:

No doubt ur party is in full :swingingchair: as we write this but we hope all those lucky people there will send ye both off with a night full of happy memories and one ye'll never forget!!!
