Yes agree with others, thanks for efforts in moderating.I still look forward to your insights etc.In a way this board is my lifeline for sanity.
Some quieter boards have three mods, so I'd guess that Syd would consider two additional candidates if it's what the board wants.
The call for a female mod could be a good one.

OLM is it too late to ask you not to give up? As some-one else has said we need people like you and you don't do a bad job. A bit lenient at times and exasperating a bit witty.Oh! and a bit argumentative as well as being biased (?) Having said all those praises I don't think you should give up. Well done any way,I hope you keep posting.as a consequence I'm stepping down as moderator.
Syd will post an article requesting volunteers to take up the batton and I wish them well.
UTT

We now have a third mod on the Leicester who I hope will help calm things so OLM staying and adding a third seems the way forward to me, over to you OLM
