Well i think that since people either go to bed at different times or have to come off the boards for some reason or another i would start this thread so people can say goodbye as they sign off for the last time.
I will not be going until 10 - although there will be a break when i have my tea!!!!! and after that i would like people to keep posting and i will come back and read them.
My fav memory of this board is finding it a realisng that there were other people who felt the same way as me to one degree or another. I hope to keep in touch with all of you either via the new boards or in other ways.
Even though I've not been a member for long I would like to thank everyone for making me feel so welcome. It's been great to find the forum and read all your posts!!!!
i'm really sad that this board is closing, i always wanted to find somewhere where i could talk to people who shared my love for scd, and i could not have wished to meet a more welcoming, kind and funny group of people.
I have to agree 100% Judith,definately my favourite memory of the boards was my first visit and realising so many people had the same interests as me (i.e.Brendan/Brendan and Natasha,SCD and dancing in general) Immediately I felt at home,and everyone made me feel really comfortable which is something im very grateful for.
I'd like to say thanks to admin for creating such a great message board where everyone could unite in talking about what they felt so passionately about.Its been great talking to you all and I hope that we can continue to converse on the other message board.
Thanks everyone,and if i don't speak to some of you again,keep dancing and take care.
Yeah, I just want to say bye to everyone! I've had a really great time discussing SCD on this board, and although I'm really sad that the boards are closing, I hope that I will be able to see everyone again on the new board!
I wuld also like 2 say thanks 2 u lot. U have been the most amazing friends is such a short space of time. U make me laugh, cry and gernerally feel g8! Judith, uve now got me in tears after that message! Luv ya guys and hope 2 see u on the new boards. Be thinking of u all in the mock SATs tomoz and I promise Ill try not 2 cry wen I do.
On these boards
'I've had the time of my life No I never felt this way before Yes I swear it's the truth And I owe it all to you'
And this is what I think about every1 of u
All you have to do is touch my hand to show me you understand and something happens to me that's some kind of wonderful
anytime my little world is blue I just have to look at you and everything seems to be some kind of wonderful
I know I can't express this feeling of tenderness is so much I wanna say but the right words just don't come my way
I just know when I´m in your embrace this world is a happy place and something happens to me that's some kind of wonderful
somekind of wonderful somekind of wonderful, wonderful somekind of wonderful
I have found this poem that I found on antonanderin.com:
Smiling is infectious You catch it like the flu When someone smiled at me today I started smiling too I passed around the corner And someone saw my grin When he smiled I realised I’d passed it on to him I thought about that smile And I realised its worth A single smile just like mine Could travel round the earth So if you feel a smile begin Don’t leave it undetected Lets start an epidemic quick And get the world infected!
Ok, so I got a bit carried away! So remember every1, in this time of sadness SMILE!
i'd just like to say a heartfelt thanks to everyone for their forum friendship and keeping me up to date with all things scd related! and i hope to speak to u all on the new boards and hope our community there will be just as special.
I will be going about half nine put i'll just post my goodbye now
its has been great talking to people who all have one common interest SCD without it i wouldnt have got to know you all
Before this board i would never have dreamed of joining a discussion boards bt iam so glad i joined this one i have made some great friends and wish to keep talking to everyone on the other boards
it has been great getting to know u all and hope to keep chatting soon
its been fab "speaking" to you all these last few months. i'd like to thank everyone involved in SCD cos its them that put us all together, so thank you!!
good luck everyone and i'll see you in our new home(s).
See yas all laters. No doubt I am sure we will cross (virtual) paths at other times in the near future. There seems to be a few boards springing up here and there!
In the words of Danny and Sandy:
Sandy: ..... I might never see you again. Danny: Don't talk that way, Sandy. Sandy: But it's true. I just had the best summer of my life and now I have to go. It isn't fair.
Sandy: Danny, don't spoil it. Danny: It's not spoiling it, Sandy. It's only making it better. Sandy: Oh Danny, is this the end? Danny: No Sandy. It's only the beginning.
It is not the end....it *is* only the beginning!!!
I have really enjoyed being a part of this board and I really hope that we can all continue to discuss SCD on the other boards!!!!
I would like to thank you all for being so great and I would like to give an extra special thanks to Admin, because without her I would of never met such a great bunch of people who all share the same passion, Strictly Come Dancing!!!!
I look forward to many more great discussions with you all!!!
well, i'm really sad this is the end. It's been a great board and we've had some good laughs. I'm just going to try and have a break from the boards for a while (if i can bear it) as i do have a young family and i tend to spend too much time on here so this will be an opportunity to break the habit - and start cooking the tea on time and do other stuff!!
If i really miss it i will definitely be in touch and join another board - wow they're sprouting up all over the place.
Thank you admin you have done a superb job it can't have been easy juggling work and the board so thanks for keeping it going for as long as you did.
Finally, thanks to all the members of the board that i've spoken to over the months, i've had a blast. So that's it - no more surfing in to see if the N & B thread has been updated with gossip etc - i reckon i'll miss it like crazy but I suppose life goes on and even Brendan's closed his site - wonder how he's feeling?
Seeya

I think when i say this, I speak for every one of us. Whether you only just joined or joined a long time ago. It has been the most amazing experience being on the boards with all of you.
There are so many memories which i will treasure forever. Not only has it changed my life, it's changed me as a person aswell. Because even though we don't know what each other look like and know everyone as a person, but we have grown to be the way we are as a big group of friends. Nothing is ever perfect, but being on here with you guys and girls has been fantastic and I will never forget any of you!
So whatever happens....Good luck with everything that happens in the future Live a happy life
I don't want to go but the time has come for me to make my final post.
I've not been a member on here long, but in the time that I have I've really enjoyed being a part of it,I never thought I would feel this way about leaving a message board but I feel like crying and I probably will very soon.
Thankyou to everyone who has made this messageboard the place it is, a place that I could come and talk about SCD to my hearts content with out people's eyes glazing over with boredom coz they just don't get it like we do.
(I know you’re going searching although I can still feel you here)
It’s not the end...
(You gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into tears)
So glad we made it
Time will never change it
No, no, no, no
You know it’s time to say goodbye…
I just want to say a massive thanks to every member of these SCD boards. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we've had a fantastic time, and it's inspiring how such a diverse group of people of all ages and walks of life could come together and discuss a love of dance here. It's such a shame that the boards are closing, but as they say - 'All good things must come to an end'. I shall miss my daily Natasha & Brendan gossip!
Big thank you to Victoria for establishing the boards in the first place!
Hopefully I will keep in touch with some of you, either via email, MSN or other discussion boards, but to the rest of you - take care and best wishes for the future.
In my last and Final post. I would also like yto say a Big Thank You to Victoria. You have changed out lives so much........and brought a lot of happiness too. I wish you and Ian the Very Best in your dancing carrer, but most of all make sure you are happy in everything you do
As for the rest of you girls and guys Hope you get what you want in life........don't let anything or anyone get in the way of your dreams, although there are a lot of obsticles which stop you from getting to where you want to be - everything happens for a reason. We may not always know what and why that reason is but that is just the way things go. you just have to figure how to deal with things in your own way. Every life ends with a happy ending....... Best Wishes to each and every one of you
To everybody here, the GGs (i will always be a member) the NGs the inbetweens, the brendan fans, the darren fans, the halifax ppl and espically admin for this wonderful board, goodbye and thankyou. youv been so wonderful iv made some fantstic friends on here and i no that we will meet one day (lets fly the flag GGs). everybody had better join emmas board as i dont think i can give this up. Good luck to you all, in your dancing and your lives. oh im gettin all sentimental now!!

Thanks to you all for sharing my obsession and making this board what it is!! I havent been here long but ive had a really great time and cant wait to talk to you all on the new boards and on msn.
I know uve gone now Ruth but Judith can tell u this cos its 4 both of u. U have both made me cry 2day with ure goodbyes so I wanna say goodbye and seeya on the new boards!
Well, this is it then. We all move on to pastures new, and this place is going to be read only - I might finally get caught up with all the posts! lol
The only thing that really upsets me about this place closing, is the fact that we had Pro's visiting us here. I'd like to think that they would take the time to follow us to pastures new, but sadly I doubt it
Alexecho - we have posted links everywhere and asked the pros to follow us so we can only really hope but i hope that they will relaise that the spirit of these boards will be carried on elsewhere and will join us.
Well it has finally come for me to post one of my last posts
i really dont no how to do this
I have never known as many people who share a common interest come together and be so friendly
it has been great talking to so many different people who have all just been so friendly and welcoming so i want to thank everybody who has made that possible
