It was open from 8:30-4 Monday through Friday for many years. When we first started using volunteer moderators, it was open 24/7 except when I took vacation time or for US holidays. I can't remember exactly when, but it went down to just Monday - Friday 24/5 to give the volunteers the weekend off and then when I went down to part-time, it went to the current hours/days.
Ah, thanks for the info. Also, enjoy your vacation, I take it you will be at home for all of it, I believe you mentioned something about a fortnight isolation when you arrive in Miane from elsewhere, or has that already been a few weeks since you arrived? :)

My 14 days is up on Thursday. I'd originally thought about taking this week off but then realized there wouldn't be much I could do so waited for next week instead. There still isn't much I can do outside my house as I'm in a county that won't be phased in for more retail store openings until June 1st but would like to get my vegetable garden planted and time's a wastin' for that.

Don't know about up there but you can't find sweet pepper plants anywhere around here. I also can't find my coveted hot Hungarian Wax pepper plants anywhere. And the tomato plant pickings are pathetic. 2020 has become a really crappy year. :(

Hey, we've been destorying the English language since the fourteenth century, so Marsha cannot be too annoyed by my grammer. :)
It's GRAMMAR (not grammer)! You are a University student - please get it right

p.s. a little red line should have shown up under the incorrect spelling
:p

Exuse me for not checking my spelling like a champ on a laid back Stephen King forum. :) There is someone in my year at university, an American, from Maryland, who did not even know who the second US President was, and guess what, I did. :)
