i just did Another search to see if anyone from ni had joined recently, and 9/10 of all ni members havn't even made one post! and i think only 3 or something have joined since me!
so how could this AWESOME site be promoted more within the uk, because as much as i love all the current members, i'd love more people who know what yorkies are like Here!
any ideas?!?
I noticed that you haven't gotten any ideas so I thought I'd share mine. Hope you don't mind, I don't live in Europe, in fact I live across the "big pond". What I have done for several years now is to keep a supply of "Official" YorkieTalk Business Cards in my purse. Here is the link http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...hare-them.html . You can can print them yourself and add your YT User ID so that when you meet someone and strike up a conversation about Yorkies, you can hand them a card. You can even print them out on plain paper and cut them out in pretty shapes to save some $$.

Anytime I have the opportunity to start a conversation with complete strangers about Yorkies -- like in a pet supply store -- I always hand out a card -- I am amazed at how many people I have given a card to have joined.

Good luck.....
