    In an attempt to stop the UK Toy Thread from proceeding to oblivion, I have started this thread as something of an overflow for how said thread often ends up in decidedly non toy territory.
    Enjoy and as always please continue to obey the forum rules.

    Not a bad idea, I think the mods have been pretty forgiving with our thread on occasion

    Do we just post everything in here now, safe with the knowledge that it will always be "on topic". I'll never be able to keep up with two threads, the UK toy chat killed the UK sightings thread dead for me.

    Is the word ‘reporting’ in bad taste, all things considered? Who posted a picture of me in the nip this time?

    Present!

    Hadn’t even considered I’d be immortalised, looking forward to potentially coming back here in a decades time to read this again

    Seconded. Multitasking sounds like far too much work.

    Welcome everyone, I don't think I'm gonna be able to keep up with welcoming every new poster xD

    Well my logic was we'd still talk about toys in the original thread but this would be for everything else like the chats we have about our personal goings on or talking about TV or whatever that are not Transformers/Toys...
    I understand the hard to keep up with thing though, I had the same with the sightings thread but I thought this would be a worthwhile experiment :) 

    Well, the discussions that most often caused issues in the UK Toy Discussion Thread are ones not about TFs or Toys in general which is why I went with here.

    Agreed. I think ToyArk would fall foul too, due to the general chit-chat stuff.
