A small thing but mine own...

[Prof Beard]

This is my (on the counter) 1000th post to PH.

I know it only makes me a beginner, but it represents many hours lost to enjoying myself when I could have doing something "productive" like writing learned papers etc.

I'd just like to say I don't regret it one jot - I've enjoyed the banter about cars and driving on GG, been able to offer the odd bit of advice on Jags and Saabs on those forums, and have chipped in to some cracking arguments on P&P.

I'm proud to be a PHer!
