| I miss Declan. I miss having time to dedicate to Declan. I miss our community time! I mean, a lot of the fun in being a fan is to hang out with your fellow fans, right? What makes a community? How can we find that feeling of belonging, and enjoy being part of the fan community? I have been thinking about it. I wish we had the tools, and I wish we had.. Declan (of course lol)
However, maybe we can still do something, can we?

| Same here, Pietro. I was blaming myself for not being around much, but work and the time we have to dedicate to our daily lives are merciless. We may have great ideas (in fact I’d better say “You may have great ideas”), but we don’t communicate and the object of our common admiration is sort of absent, which affects us all. At a certain point I was under the impression that this is a forum for some (very few) of us and that a closed group on FB would have been enough and would have saved your hard work to put all this together. I know I am wrong, I can feel it. I have to be patient, and I’m striving hard. I may be kind of depressed right now. Looking forward to that EP… | |

| Oh gosh....guess we are all feeling the same thing! I have been very sad of late....I feel that I haven't done enough and I know I haven't with SDG but I just don't have the time and when I do, I'm too tired! I don't want to give up on this...ever. Declan has brought so much joy into my life....and brought me so many friends that I have come to care for. I don't want to give up on SDG especially because I think it's a forum well run and well put together by a very dedicated young man who I am proud to call friend. We all have lives and jobs and other things to do but I think we can make this work and have a great community of friends and fans here. I used to adore WFOD because I had all the truths about Declan and always made sure that information there was correct. Now I am out of the loop and am almost fearful to say too much because I don't know what the truths are anymore. My hope is that someday Declan will find it in his heart to stop by and say hello although I am quite sure he is a very busy young man with trying to get his EP established and out there for us. I can say for myself that I will try very hard to stop in every day and say hello. It might be nice to just have some conversations about what we do every day in our lives....a good, open, line of communication until Declan releases his EP and we can all jump for joy! | |

| I will start! lol I just spent three long days riding in a big rig from Michigan to California. I spent two nights on the floor in my rig and (ouch...THAT hurt!) and one night in a very comfortable bed in a Casino in Wendover, Nevada. Whew! Nice! I am finally settled in to the hotel and am getting my sea legs under me. Tomorrow is set up so to bed fairly early for me. Hugs to all of you! | |

| Hello everyone! I've been on vacation in Destin Florida, but I get on each day just to browse around. I know everyone gets busy, but I hope no one gives up on this forum. You all have worked too hard to let it go. I've enjoyed it very much and will try to see if I can think of some topics to talk about if I can. Thank you for all you do! | |

| I was in a little village called Chenega Bay, it is on an island. Very tiny. My sister got married there. I always miss SDG and WFOD when I am unable to get online. 5 days was to long. | |

| Nobody's thinking of leaving SDG. We all agree it's a wonderful place. We would only like more action and larger involvement. I'll be on holiday in a few weeks and spend more time here. By the way, do you have any idea whether the comments for Declan's new songs on WFOD (under the heading RUBY TUESDAY) have been transferred here? | |

| I would never leave SDG or WFOD! It would make me very unhappy to do so. We will continue to make this a more informative forum as we go and things will just keep getting better and better! | |
