The Conversations side of the Forum

15 years ago

Wow! There are so many new people on the Garden Junk forum! WELCOME! I just wanted to share with you a special side of the forum. You'll love it! If you go to the top of the main Garden Junk page (right before where posts are listed), you'll see: On-Topic Discussions [Switch to: Conversations] Click on CONVERSATIONS. You'll go to the other side of the forum where people share their lives, joys, struggles, prayer requests, and anything else. You really get to know people over on "the other side". Hope to see you over there! Again, WELCOME to the so many new Garden Junk members! Bear Hugs! Kirk

Also, here's a link to the "other side". :o)

The "urban" squirrels where I live are either black or grey. It is my understanding that they are simply colour variations of the same species, and both colours can occur in the same litter. They are bothersome in gardens and inovative at besting bird feeders, but nevertheless entertaining and not seriously destructive. ON THE OTHER HAND, there are red squirrels at our cottage. They are a different species, quite the cutest animals ever, a rusty brown colour with white bellies, big eyes, and smaller than the black/grey types -- not much bigger than a chipmunk. However, they will happily EAT YOUR HOUSE if they decide they want in!!! They don't seem to bother gardens, but wow can they be destructive of anything else. They have colonized the cottage next door to us and I understand that the ceiing cavities are filled with walnuts; we watch them entering under the eaves and are glad they haven't set their sights on us! So we thankfully tolerate the black/greys at home. Jan

Here's how I found it. --click -- rate and review exchanges --at very top of page near houzz logo there's a search button ( make sure you click the box and not search symbol, it's easier) type in user name . --It should come up like.. vaflowernut in rate and review exchanges, click that. --then you'll have my R & R and others I left a review for. click on my user name. then scroll to bottom and leave a comment. It took a while for me to figure it out, hope this helps.

Please drop my request. It looks like most of the members want to keep off topic remarks along with their postings on the subject of quilting on the same page by using the OT (off topic) abbreviation/. thanks anyway.

kitchen table forum vs conversations side of kitchens forum

I think you'll find that the Kitchen Table is a fun diversion. Like Gina said, nothing to do with kitchens, but it's a nice group who share lots of things, from family and work, to cars or sharing fun websites or games or whatever. Just like visiting with some old friends. Gina's right, that most forums have their own flavor, and you know most of the people who frequent them. But the KT forum is like a group of friends who just enjoy each other's company. Here is a link that might be useful: Kitchen Table

WATCH OUT!! Me and Nona tend to act as the 'Posting Police' HEHEHEHE Yes, please keep this side 'conversation free' and only post things you found, bought, or made for the garden. Oh, and questions you may have concerning how to make or how someone made something, or if someone can find a post or may have saved a pic about something that was made.
Did I leave anything out concerning the 'discussions' side?

Reminder ALSO to update YOUR PAGE. Often Id like to see where on the planet you live or what else you collect and many junkers forget to detail their page. PLEASE don't forget!
