Hello to all those who have come here having been subjected to the shameless promotion over on Google+

We have made a political promise today – to campaign immediately, and to full effect, for the preservation of what may turn out to be Google+’s Northern Ireland moment of history.

This is not a task we enter into lightly, and nor should anyone feel that we are doing this solely in the interest of raising our own publicity; although this will be undoubtedly an unfortunate and, in many ways, unwelcome side-effect. We feel strongly enough about this motion that any kind of celebrity status we may garner we will grin and bear magnanimously.

So, friends, SAVE THE BELFAST THREAD. Work with us through this challenging time.

Anyone currently unaware of the ongoing threat to our national heritage, we urge you all now to visit http://plus.google.com/103135006586075679705/posts/NaTAb42rF7x to see what we, as a society, may be about to lose.

KEVIN MCNICHOLL MUST BE STOPPED!

Thank you Mirthlings, thank you all.
