French Car Chat Forum

Post by GiveMeABreak »

The 'French Car Chat' Forum has now been renamed to ' The Off Topic Chat Lounge'.

There have been no changes to the existing topics or posts. It was just felt that there needed to be a place for posts that did not fit into any of the other categories and to encourage posts of a more general nature to be posted here instead of in the technical forums.

What will happen to any posts placed in there that are deemed to be on-topic?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

I can see a bit of a paradox forming though. If you post something that is off topic, then it will be - by definition - on topic for the off topic lounge and therefore not suitable. If, however, you post something that is on topic, then -again - it's not suitable for the off topic lounge. :rofl2:

Nothing Paul

We don't have anywhere to put 'general' posts and rather than create a new forum just for that the team thought it better to use the French Car Chat Forum and rename it.

What happens to all the on-topic posts that invariably wander off-topic then? :rofl2:

The post was tongue in cheek (where's the smiley for that?) Marc. Bobbins has cottoned on to the catch-22 situation though.

Well, West Wales is getting a lot wetter than normal, because of a mysterious flood that has weather forecasters baffled. Reading this thread would have been highly illuminating.
