Well our young Ace has just 29 more posts to go before reaching the big 10K.

What would be an appropriate reward (or even better, punishment) for this feat ?

Many moons ago, in the previous incarnation of the site, Ace and I were way out in front with red star fever, then gold star then... but there was a big 'pruning' done by the almightly and glorious bigbugga. (Where are you mate ?)

Since then I've just not even come close to matching him. I suspect he has some way of distorting the space-time continuum so he can stay on here 25 hours a day.

Hmmm, let's see....space time continuim you reckon Vlad?

I think I have the formula for getting to 10,000 posts.

Teacher + living in Lithgow = why isn't he on 40,000 posts?!:p :twisted:

He's converted his Landie into a TARDIS or a Delorian?
I think he just has the same employer as us and a lot of time up his sleeves, though he has been quiet of late.

I am here, i havent had much time of late to get on as much as i would like, with UNI work, getting the shirts on ebay sorted, work and other things. I am watching the post count climb towards 10000 and have been for a few weeks.

10000 hard earned posts with a domestic associated to at least half of them. :D

Ak- mate the next BBQ is on the long weekend in a little over 3 weeks time, if you dont have time then you never will, and you are more than welcome.

I hope to see everyone there, we can make it a 10000 post party. :D

For those of you with memories or concentration spans long enough:

Before the stars fell from the sky Ace had reached the exulted status of "Sultan of Solihull" (appended with one pair of lips).

I would therefore suggest by way of restoration that the truncated title of "Sultan" would suffice (LR heritage being important)
