• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Hi everyone

I hope I'm not creating a headache for the admin but I was a member here for a while about a decade ago. Then work caught up with me and I didn't have time for the forum, sadly. Now I came across it and thought I'd return. My email address has changed and I haven't a clue what my original pen name or password might have been. All the same, I'm glad to be back here again.

Welcome back Mary A. I did the same thing, forgot my old identity and enrolled under a new one. It hasn't caused any problems.

Hi MaryA and welcome back - I'm one of the oldies as well but have kept my name. It's great the colony is bringing members back into the fold again...

Welcome Colony, awesome canopy. Lawal, the Name. Lovely, as same.
 
Boopadoo, Island Writer, yes, those names ring a bell. Good to reconnect. My then-small niece named her teddy bear Boopadoo at my suggestion years ago. It had the right sound for a cuddly rotund bear with a big red bow tie!
 
Thanks for the welcome, David Newrick, Lawal.

I wish my Coco Chanel avatar didn't startle me so each time I catch sight of it. Maybe I should change it --
