Administrator chscag - Charlie - is approaching the astonishing figure of 50,000 posts and I think it fitting to offer congratulations for this dedication to our Forums.

I don’t know if any past member has reached this figure - he may the first.

On a personal note, Charlie, I’d like to thank you for letting me down gently when I’ve misunderstood a post, offered misinformation or made factual errors.

You always show great courtesy and understanding in your advice to those seeking answers - and those giving them.

Ian

Careful there Ian. A little more flattery and the mods may have to chip in and buy Charlie a larger hat. :Mischievous:

Seriously though. I hadn't noticed the post count milestone. Congrats Charlie. Agree wholeheartedly with Ian's praise.

You should get the matching boots while Sly is feeling generous.
