Default *Yawn*

I just fell asleep half way through reading that.......

I have now wiped the drool from my face and finished reading...I have also decided to get someone to speak that into a tape recorded to cure my insomnia as the new Keane Album clearly isn`t working.

Thanks Neil.

As you know the current system in place for getting events added to the calendar is rather clumbersome and there is quite a delay in some cases before an event you have announced gets added to the calendar. This is simply because I often don't always have the free time to go through all the posts and get them added to the calendar.

I have now found a solution to this problem since upgrading the forums. I have now created a calendar for each of our sponsors so they can add/edit and remove events from their own calendar as and when they please. Unfortunately, only one moderator can be assigned to a calendar and so these have currently been assigned as follows (if you want these changed - please just contact me):


Dr. Drakes Calendar - DR DRAKE (Sharon)
Moshulu & The Bassment Calendar - Ross
The Lemon Tree - Jamie
The Moorings Bar - Flash@TMB


I would appreciate it if the calendar moderators above could make the title of the events they add to their respective calendars fit in with the formatting style of all the other calendar entries (e.g. [GIG] my gig @ my venue).

Just like the Public calendar (which is still there as before) any events added to your calendars will automatically be displayed on the forum home page. I will still add gigs manually to the calendar for those announced in the Gig & Event Announcements forum but hopefully by having these new calendars the number of new gig announcements should start to fall as I hope you will add your upcoming gigs to your own calendar!

I also intend to have upcoming gigs displayed on the home page of the web site and on the thread display page in the same as they are currently displayed on the forum home page. So this will further increase the exposure of any events you have added to your calendars.

May I also take this opportunity to remind all our registered members that you all each have your own private calendar which you can add/edit and remove your own entries to and from. You can access this calendar by selecting "My Calendar" in the drop-down menu in the Calendar section of the web site.

If anyone has any problems or questions regarding the calendars then, as always, please let me know.
