Singles Weekend Hosts - Nuts and Bolts Thread

Welcome to all Posters/Hosts/Hostesses!
This is for the hosts present, past, future to share information & be the nuts & bolts, housekeeping, sharing of issues etc. for the thread. I am putting it in an obscure chat category so we can escape some exposure as this is NOT a GENERAL chat thread but rather one of limited interest.
Rather than post all the information ON THIS THREAD, I have provided links. This way I can change the material in the document when needed as updates or modifications.
We as hosts can give ideas, help each other & use this forum as a sounding board, more or less. FR does NOT have a closed chat area & we may eventually set one up somewhere, but for now I have decided this is the best way to share all the information.
When you post the thread PLEASE read the instructions on posting a thread, if you dont know how. ALSO, PLEASE, PLEASE, use the OFFICIAL PINGS for ALL THREE DAYS!
For music, each team is on their own. If you like it & know how to do it
go for it. MoJo who originally was to do this for us, found her situation changing & could not. DO NOT FEEL YOU MUST DO MUSIC. It is a really nice addition but is surely optional.
Share your questions HERE rather than Freepmail so all have the chance to see what is going on. Try to hit the thread at least once a week to see what is current.

Thank you for your willingness to help & be a host/hostess for one weekend. If you want to be a regular on the rotation, that is GREAT.
The Singles thread is a refuge & center of fun & friendship for Singles & their friends. We will support each other, help each other, laugh with each other & grieve with each other.. This is not a fix um up site per se, but one never knows what might happen along the way.
You as a host are critical
you open the doors & make the guests feel comfortable. Thanks Again!

Communicating here via this thread is easier than email/FReepmail(unless there is something very private you need to say/share)
NICE JOB hosting Stephen & Jackie! Good traffic & some new folks! (ping, better late than never???) :-)!
Adding Snugs to the posters /ping list as she is now one of our posters - Welcome Snugs!
Esther (Najida) is go for this weekend. And is doing a mother's day theme. She will be posting the thread & doing pings (maybe nowhereman &/or RCA help???)
It would be nice if we could all do a tribute to our mom's along the way. I know some of you have better relations with mom, than others. Snugs this is going to maybe be a rough Sunday for you as your first mother's day w/o Mom(those who don't know, her mom died last christmas)
Let's go with Stephen/Jackie for the following weekend (20-22) for the British Invasion -- maybe Eleanor could add a little to thread (as she is FROM ENGLAND!)
Eleanor & Proud Yank will be then the weekend following 27-29(which happens to be Memorial weekend & will be a four day weekend)
will that work for everyone???
As always we will help each other out with graphics / material we come across along the way & post on thread for interest
I am going to see if NoWhereMan & or RCA will be her "assistant" this weekend.. but if anyone who is around could just do the regular, welcome of all etc. AS she will be doing the posting, it will mostly be help with "visiting" guests to the thread unless SHE WANTS OTHER HELP...
I am also going to post this on the " maintenance"/"Nuts & Bolts" thread so all will again have it & the resources (ping list, ping URLs, how to post a thread etc) for your use.
Esther.. IF YOU NEED HELP WITH GRAPHICS/HTML etc.. let me know. I often am gone for DAY by 3 or 4 on FRiday so I will need lead time. Thurs PM is okay

Looks like the next Single's thread on Mother's Day is covered.
I'll be ready to go when you need me. I am getting the music together and the body is done except for the html coding, which I am going to work on this week.
I someone backs out my partner and I will step in.
This is a great learning experience for me and I am glad I volunteered.
Jackie did a great job this weekend. My turn to carry the water next time.
Your links are extremely helpful. I'm going to do the code and I'll send you the finished product for your review.
Hope things are getting better for you. I know you have been having problems, but here you are for us anyway. You are a real trooper.

You don't have to worry about posting hosting info to me since I'm not a host.

okeedookie!
Sorry, My error. I did NOT know you wanted off permanently the rotation. I thought it was just this round.
Let us know if you have a "hankering" to be a poster.

Thanks for the calendrical reminder. I think that I have my spot with RWI marked on a claendar, but it never hurts to have one's memory jogged.
