If this place ceased to exist, what would it mean to you?
**** all
freeeeeeeeeedoooom
I would just use mumsnet
I think I would try and stay in touch with a few people from here, other than that I am not really on here as much these days.
I thought this place was a figment of my imagination.
I'd be gutted. Only decent place I know of to chat on the net.
More money spent on tissues.
I'd have to find somewhere else to waste too much of my time.
I'd lose a very good source of info on routes/servicing/fixing bikes, and all sorts of other random stuff.

Have to talk to the missus more in the evenings 😉
What mantastic said
i would lose cash from selling stuff and bargains being bought
More money spent on tissues.
No old socks?
I'd feel like my favourite pub had closed, a place where both good and bad people mix, somewhere to have a chat and share ideas, somewhere to have a barny.
I'd just do other stuff

I might even get the bike out from the back of the garage...
I would get my life back
I'd probably think more about what I'm eating
I'd just do other stuff
I do that anyway. This just fills the gaps. 😉

Step into my [s]orifice[/s] office.
I would treasure all that I had learnt about the judgemental whingeing middle-classes .............I would feel eternally grateful to STW 🙂
EDIT : maybe that should say "lower middle-class".......they appear to be the most insecure and pretentious.
My productivity at work would certainly improve.
I would actualy have to make the effort to ride the bike more, and meet intelligent, clever,arguementative,arrogant, helpful and sometimes funny fellow bike riders.
you are all miserable buggers anyway so I'd miss you like I missed my ratty, evil smelling, incontinent old cat when he passed away. He was ace when he was young, lovely in the middle bits and something you persisted in loving through all the mess and anguish of old age, just for those odd days when a bouncy bit of fun kitten came back for a short while.
It'd be a shame. But not that big a deal. I think when the poo-flinging monkeys are quiet or otherwise distracted, this site's a pretty cool thing.
like your analogy Tazzy

I would miss it and am not ashamed to admit that! There's some terrific people on here, many of them make me laugh, a few make me angry, many in real life are great and have become good friends. 8)
Would definitely have withdrawal symptoms. 🙁
What place?
I would take over the world. 😈
... seriously I would miss it but then something is going to come up and I would simply join them ...

On here I can live my life as davidtaylforth, the straight talking, no nonsense cycling god who lives off road kill and shrubs, builds stonewalls for breakfast and can handle himself in any situation. A true stw hero.
If this place ceased to exist, I could only live my life in the real world (which is much more entertaining)
