The eagle-eyed of you may have noticed that there is a 'new boy' Moderator.
There were a couple of sections that could do with an extra pair of eyes watching over them so, after 5 years and 3,000 posts, as well a getting a unique title, Tenement Funster is now one of the team and can now look forward to being paid annually his share of the imaginary pickles. 
Welcome to the team Rick.
Roger
Welcome to the Team TF !! It's On-The-Job-Training.... so don't be afraid to ask questions. Come to think of it, you are as far East on the NA Continent as any other Mod, so you get first crack at them in the morning. Okay that is not so much of a thing is it?? I'm as far West as you can get, and that just means I get to stay up later.... not feeling "special". 
Congratulations Rick, welcome to mount Olympus!
Just remember we've all been through this stage, you can call it trial by fire if you like only you can make as many cock ups as you like and they still won't fire you, I'm testament to that.
Put your stamp on your forums and try not to piss the members off....too much. Most importantly don't piss Roger off...I dread to see his name on my emails
Congratulations Rick, welcome to mount Olympus!...

And here I thought it was just me. LOL.
The first think that crosses my mind is; Oh no. What did I do wrong this time? 
Rick Welcome aboard the Chordie Ship we set sail every day to do battle with Somali spammers and their ilk a very rewarding task and of course, the pay is fantastic! 
Welcome to the Team!

Eggzactly
Here's some must-reading for you crazy people:
Excuse my ignorance is a pickle something like a gherkin or an onion preserved in brine.???? When I was kid I remember my Grandmother saying " Now now don't get yourself in a pickle". I just thought it was her way of saying don't get confused. When I lived in the UK some pubs sold pickled eggs are they pickles??? My mum use to make jars of onions in brine which she called pickle onions.. Am I on the right track or is it something else ??? Congratulations TF you are good person to have as a Moderator,
Here in the states a pickle is a cucumber/gherkin living in a mainly vinegar brine. There are varying degrees of strength to the brine from a very sour dill pickle to the sweet gherkin. We have pickled eggs as well. I always add red beets when I make pickled eggs.
And we have the same expression; "I got myself in a real pickle this time"
Thank you UJB . I remember as a kid children schools here taught us"Peter Piper" a English-language tongue-twister. It is only now that I realise what the pickle peppers are.in the ryhme.
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
Congratulations TF ............. great to see you on board
Info for Peatle.
Anything that's "pickled" in vinegar or acid we call eg pickled onions, pickled eggs, pickled cockles etc even tin coated copper for electric wires gets pickled in the process of plating. I believe Londoners enjoy pickled eels!!!!
Edited to correct predictive text
Great to have you on the Mods team TF..
As for the pickles all I have to say is "Bring out the Branston"
Phill when I lived in London outside some pubs you would get Barrow Boys selling Jellied eels. The dish consists of chopped eels boiled in a spiced stock that is allowed to cool and set, forming a jelly. It is eaten cold. The Barrow Boys would also sell cockles and mussels done in vinegar. They would sell their food to you in little plastic containers with little wooden picks to eat it with. Something that might amuse our American friends is our local Pub in London use to serve Faggots. That is Faggots, gravy, mashed potatoes and peas. A faggot is traditionally made from pig's heart, liver and fatty belly meat or bacon minced together, with herbs added for flavouring and sometimes bread crumbs.
Not to "squash" the conversation, but I'm sure we all have "bean" waiting for the response from the head pickler here on Chordie.
My intent is not to "pepper" you with "sage" advice, just to "leek" out a few good lines.
"Zucchani(t)" just about anything if it is brined in vinegar (apparently even eels- arrgh:( )
I don't want to "beet" this thread so I will conclude by saying -
"Lettuce" all be thankful for pickles."
"Peas" be with you all !
So with that said - it's time to "end(ive)" this piece and get the "Mojo" on !!
It certainly would be thre right thing to do - give him a "turn(ip) !
Jim
p.s. I hope my comments won't be the cause of any "rhubarbs" among us!
