Not really. We just do things more slowly.

You WHAT?

Since I retired, I have been wondering how I actually found time to go to work!

Typical day:
After I posted the last banners, I think it was about 1 - 1:30 in the morning when I got to bed, then I had a lay-in until 7:15 and out early for a meeting at 9am... Then back home...do a few urgent price updates on an ecommerce site for a local woodworking tool and machinery company. I have to try and think of getting some breakfast in a minute, It is only 13:00.

My advice to all of you youngsters (all under 65!) - Relax and enjoy the slow pace and relaxation of working life while you can.

Re: Folding@Home Banner

Have we got enough suggestions to have a poll? Some of the users are champing at the bit.

Re: Folding@Home Banner

How about we have a poll to see if we have enough banners to make a poll

I think we have enough and should have a vote soon.

Re: Folding@Home Banner

I see Mr.Sparrow has adopted his own folding banner also. It may turn into a free for all if something is not decided soon.

Maybe we could allow some individuality when it comes to the banners, with the requirement that "TSF" be included in the banner I.E "TSF, Folding@Home Fighting Cancer".

I'm just playing around.

Maybe we could have a poll to see if everyone wants the same banner, or have individual ones

A poll, any poll would be good
