Without Spooks Forum..... - Nitrus - 28-07-2010 01:17 AM
As part of our birthday celebrations I thought it'd be entertaining to start a thread along the lines of "You know you're a Spooks fan when..."
So, for this thread, state how your life would be different without Spooks Forum.
Here's a few of mine:
Without Spooks Forum my inbox would be half as full as it is now.
Without Spooks Forum I wouldn't have a clue what Lucas' tattoos mean.
Without Spooks Forum I wouldn't have had sleepless nights trying to get the site back online so there wouldn't be an uproar.
Without Spooks Forum I wouldn't have up-to-date information on the weather in different places around the world.
Your turn...

Without Spooks Forum I would drive my husband, kids, friends, cat and fish CRAZY deconstructing a TV show.
Without Spooks Forum I would have no one to drool over Peter Firth with me!
Without Spooks Forum I wouldn't hear my nine year old say to me "You sure do like your MI5!'" (Yes, dear, yes I do!)

Without spooks forum Harry and Ruth would just be two more run-of-the-mill names.
Without spooks forum I wouldn't have learned how to divert e-mails from my inbox to their own little a sub-directory.
Without spooks forum I would never have known that JHyde never sleeps, Silktie is quite the writer, A Cousin likes gadgets, Berto has a really skewed sense of humor, Tea Lady and Bea can seemingly find any obscure location in and around London, etc, etc, etc.
Withouy spooks forum I'd get a lot more work done in the office.
