I tried to join peugeotforums, only to find I'd already joined about 18 months ago. (Obviously found it riveting). :roll:

TDOC held me enthralled for about 50 ns, eons ago.

I occasionally frequent the 'other' 406 club, but since they've taken to calling ours 'the taxi version', I'm gonna leave 'em to it.

There's no virtual place like home. :D

Not seen that one over on the other one.

Used to love thast my V6 estate looked like a taxi - made the traffic lights grand prix so much more fun :)
Remember - it only takes a few inches of water to drown a 406 don't make the same mistake I made! The V6 Exec is no more.

I haven't found them say that at all... I don't think people would have the balls to say that to me though :oops:
And on that note, I admit - this is my home............ :D

Oops! I just got a
General Error

SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql.406oc.co.uk' (0) [2005]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
for a few minutes. Now it's back up & the post I just made (which I had to rewrite) lacks emoticons. Hold on, they're all missing as I write this! Hmm, I think I know what's going on -

Hello Nick, hope it's all going ok :o)

Can we get Nick's status upgraded to "Forum God" now?

In case anyone hasn't noticed, Nick's updated the first post in this thread. I can't even begin to imagine how much work the poor guy's been doing, and it's not over yet...

Jesus! I can't imagine text taking up that much space, is most of it photos? How much of that can we offload onto Photobucket or simply just delete?

Thanks,

Just in case anyones seen some strange happenings - I've been messing with some files and prepping the server for a move from San Francisco to Amsterdam. Just so its closer to home. This will happen either later tonight or during the week. I'll start the change in the wee hours of the morning, but it can take up to 24 hours for DNS changes to propagate through... I'm hoping it wont be that long. With the quick change over to this server, it took about 4 hours for al DNS records to be updated. Funnilly, I think Orange UK (EE) was the longest to realise a change had occurred...

Cheers,

Nick
Thanks,
Nick

Hiya Nick,

Been meaning to say for ages, we've already got a Facebook group that's been running for a long time, and a while ago we also started a page which is growing well (What the hell is the difference between a group and a page anyway? :? )

Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/6406511362/

Page: https://www.facebook.com/Peugeot406OwnersClub

If you facebook befriend me at https://www.facebook.com/DaiRees I'll make you admin of both (I've tried searching for you on t'book but can't find you :oops: ), then you can edit it all you want. Might be worth deleting that new page you've made to avoid confusion?
