Over the last year the number of posts each weeks has fluctuated between 450 and 1300. It goes up and down depending on a variety of factors including the weather, holidays, and all sorts of other things that are going on in people's lives.

In the last 7 days there have been just under 800 posts, which is quieter than it was a couple of weeks ago, but that was a particularly noisy week!

I wouldn't say that over 100 posts a day is "very quiet" by any means

Always happy to give you the benefit of the stats to align your "reality" with the real world!

Between looking at Kitchens, redesigning my driveway to accomodate an inpending aquasition, other forums, selling my fathers car, job hunting and general goings on in my life I haven't the time with boaty things just at the moment.

But I do log on at least 3 times a day to keep an eye on you lot.
