Not trying to make light of your post hun, but I just want to assure you that we will ensure that banders are treated fairly here in the same way as anyone else.

Thanks for your good wishes, and please, if you feel at any time that as a bander you are not being represented fairly, please let me know, either in the open forum or by PM.
Thanks for the reassurance Sam x

Yes I totally agree, My thoughts exactally,
I have my Own forum and its not easy at all keeping everything running smoothly.
And at times can be a right nightmare & is very time consuming,but with good mods it can be done!

You need 50 posts before you can private message.

We do not have blogs on this site as yet but you can access the blogs on MiniMns.

We are in the process of setting up new blogs here for this site which will be different, it is new software and Pierce is working on it.

Love Mini xxx

Hi Sukay,

I see Mini has already answered your questions, but just thought I would add that you could start a diary in the diaries section if you like. You could then copy the posts over to the blog section when its up and running.
