Default Don't despair - help is near

Oh those who read this thread know the story well,
logged in through the night until the dawn chorus knells
Cos the crack is going ninety and the slaggin is alarming
And the wisecracks and the poetry are really very charming.

The restoration projects whether big or small
Are a source of amazement, inspiration and awe.
The bmw, the boat, the hats, the quilt - far too many to mention
And I hope those skilled folks are eternally proud of their wonderful creations.

The craft links are deadly - magiceight you are to blame
for my children sometimes being neglected & my house it is a shame...
but thanks to you and to all the jters who jumped to my assistance
With crafty links, projects & instructions to decorate my house for Christmas (I know it doesn't rhyme - poetic licence ok?!)

And the wonderful advice on living green - who could miss out on that?
Whether you want your bins filling slower or your compost going great (poetic thingimy again)
Tips on ways to help yourself strive towards self-sufficiency
and yes that includes a way to make your own electricity.

As well as all the above-mentioned traits there is also the green tube
Which keeps us amused for several hours - in fact it'd have you glued.
There's nothing better than sitting back with all the lights on dim
Watching and hearing how beautiful our planet is in that little piece of film.

And of course it's always nice to get something on here too
or give something away to someone who needs it way way more than you.
And to meet a fellow jter is always really exciting
because the community here is full of cheer and sound so inviting.

The community here go out of their way to get something to somebody else
In fact in several cases they're a postal relay service in themselves!
The spirit of the members in something really special
And the friends you make along the way - even if they're virtual.

Well the time has come to make a stand and stand I certainly will
For being addicted to jumbletown gives me such a thrill.
And if being addicted to jumbletown is a serious "illness"
then I hope that it turns out to be something contagious.

And so I come to the point of my ditty
(and please excuse it if it wasn't too witty!!)
That the time for action is coming near
For all jumbletowners to say loud and clear
"We're jumbletown addicts and proud to be here"

And so a meeting is being arranged for a weekend
Towards the end of the summer - probably late August weekend (exact date to follow)
For any jumbletowners who want to be virtual friends no more
A party will be had and you can shake your shimmy on the floor.

And you can wear a badge, a hat or a crafty thing or two
And maybe let us guess who you are from some little "clue"
And I'd love to meet as many of you as I can before I go to African Skies
And have some fun and frolics and basically the time of our lives!
