Or like someone too lazy to correct their typos? Well it's an intersting point. I often see the typo and leave as I feel people expect me to make typos and I would be letting them down by being accurate. If I edited them out I would lose my USP. Or would I? Why do you need a UPS? Parcel to send?

T'was beauty killed the beast. Steady That's the standard response whenever the big ape dies, you know.

I miss it a lot, it felt like a mini XTC city of fans. All life was there.

I miss it a lot, it felt like a mini XTC city of fans. All life was there. Set up by Andy. But the fans rejected it. I ended up having a conversation with him and advised him to close it down. He did. Maybe not on my advice. What makes me chuckle is Facebook killed the Andy/XtC forum on APE. And he doesn't do FB. You couldn't make it up 😎

It was lively albeit certainly not the number of us there that were in the IDEA forum days. There were a pretty sizeable and loyal bunch that frequented it every day. I miss it. I'm not the hugest fan of some of the Andy/XTC pages on Facebook and one of the admins of one of those pages is very biased at the best of times. If the bulk of those folks had signed up on any of the forums, you wouldn't have to hear the constant din of remarks about the band needing to get back together ... especially if they had been on APE because we all knew Andy's position with that so we didn't start on that subject.

Well Suzi I guess it was a meeting place. It now seems like a relatively small number of people are spread across quite a few meeting places. Who knows, everything goes in circles. Maybe that trend will reverse one day. Or maybe the XTC collective thing has run its race. I guess people made friends along the way and the odd enemy. So it's all good, I suppose.

A dead APE is not a problem, as long as said primate is delicious.

Yes, it is. He was even christened Swanson. But as you can see, the cobbler is still piping hot.
