I have to concur with you there Brother Westie. This place is far more interesting with Paws than without him. If he can curb his exuberance and keep to the rules he can make a worthwhile contribution to the site as he did in the past.
I was chatting to a newbie member in the chatroom a few nights back. I got the impression that the new member had'nt even heard of Paws.......shock horror.
Anyway, the unfortunate individual and many others like him, are missing out on the traditional newbie chatroom welcome ritual.......a good savaging at the hand of Paws.....or should that be the paw of Paws. If you survive that, you can survive this recession.
