Returning to the Ranks

[Grizzly]

I would like to echo the remarks made above and to thank you sincerely Ern for all the hard work and dedication you have given to this forum and for your contribution into making XMTS a truly international home for us kilties.

Speaking as a colleague of a brief period of time, I will miss Ernie's steady mind, good humour and wise counsel. We have all been enriched by his contribution and he is one of those who has helped this to be the best spot on the entire Internet.

We look forward to Ernie's continued contributions in months and years to come.

We will miss Ern for all the qualities he brought to the mod squad, as already described and also for his keeping things neat and tidy. Several times when I began to notice things were needing looking to I would arrive and find it was already done. His retirement is well earned.

I echo the sentiments of Steve and my fellow moderators. We've all appreciated everything that Ern has put into helping this forum run smoothly, and his service shan't be forgotten. I still hope that I'll have the privilege to meet him in person some day, and have a nice, long chat over some wee drams, and not so wee pints. :-) In the mean time, and until then, this evening I shall raise a glass to my friend.

Thank you, Ern, for being a wise and just moderator, and a true friend to all; you have performed a difficult balancing act so very well.

To all of you, I say thank you.

It is us who thank you, Ern, for all you've done.
