And nine years of your excellent contributions to both this forum and CWE. Well done, mate.

Nine years ago today I walked into the city of Burgos on Palm Sunday.

A good innings Ferg. :thumbup:

In addition to the 21 you currently have, do you have a tally for those that have been moved on in the past 9 years?

Nope, never heard of you.





















:lol:

Seriously, congratulations on your anniversary, Ferg, and thanks for all your excellent contributions to the forum over the years. It sounds like you need to start saving for a special purchase in a year's time to mark 10 years! :thumbup:

That’s not too bad over 9 years. :)

There are probably a few on here, that we both know, who have seen off almost that number in a year! :lol:
