Metropol

Metropol 24/7 officially launched as a replacement for The Lounge on Friday 15 August 2003

Somehow, it still exists.

Drinks and nibbles in the secret forum at 1pm

No mean feat, congratulations to all who've made this a worthwhile place to be in that time.

It was great to finally see inside the secret forum, but I wish it had stayed open a little longer. I guess there's always 2043...

Never in a million years did I think in 2003 that this place and collection of keyboard warriors would still be here after all these years!

Happy birthday Metropol!

As part of the birthday celebrations, I noticed Debenhams stores were offering all Metropol members 20 free bonus Nectar points yesterday*.

Hope you managed to pop-in and get your card swiped!



(* Offer ends 23:59 on 15/08/23. Participating stores only. Excludes London Oxford Street.)

You're wrong cdd.

It's still open for me.

I missed it, unless it's in a skip in Maidstone with the TVS archive?

Blast, I missed it. Must remember to set me clooks next time...

Happy birthday Metropol!

Hello!

20 years pass quickly, particularly if you don't sign-in for years at a time.

Even though I do fuck all and haven't ponied up a penny for hosting in two decades, Pete still has the grace to leave my Admin tag up there, in all its ceremonial, toothless glory. I'm like a Hollywood Museum of Wax 'Queen Elizabeth'.

I will try and visit more, but I say that and then I don't.

Ironically the place I feel I could offer some interesting posts now is TV Forum, having finally moved into a career in it.

I suppose I missed my chance to be a noggin.

Hey you know we should arrange a meet up. Perhaps Jaron will come.

Happy Birthday Metropol.

I absolutely love the purple retro theme, hope it stays.
