    Think it's fitting Szark you got the first post on page 100.. nice work buddy - and everyone else who has contributed to this, including all the brilliant artwork.

    Here is to the next 100 pages

    *cracks open a beer*

    CHEERS!


    Ah but the important post is the first one on page 101. That's when we split it off. Mine's a whiskey please.

    Oh we still split the threads in the new forums?

    Whiskeys all round!
    Whoo-hoo! Happy Hundred everybody!

    But that's a good question -- fun as this is, why are topics still being restarted after 100 pages? I thought that was one of the issues that moving to the new store/forum software was supposed to fix.

    Well, do you trust the new system to be robust enough to handle a multi-hundred page thread?

    I saw a thread in this new forum hit 141 pages so look at it as a soccer game (or football as we call the real game here in Europe where we do play it with the feet), we're on overtime ;-)

    Since the last thread ended with talking of drinking, why stop now? I'll take a Gimlet. And a Gimlet is gin and lime juice, don't let any bartenders tell you different!* And if they pour it in a tumbler over ice, instead of shaking it, then they are no bartender at all...

    Mmm... Gimlets...

    *Vodka has it's place, but it ain't in a gimlet.

    Reminds me of a Barmaid I used to work with, her tipple was Gin. Gin with anything, but usually more gin.

    She told us that when she passed on there would be no need to bury her, she was already so pickled she would last for ever and we could just stand her up in the corner and no one would notice the difference,

    I actually don't drink that often, I just know what I like. :-)

    Fair point. :shut:

    Oh, don't get me wrong, she didn't drink often, only during working hours. She had a half pint glass permanently on the corner of the bar, and the level in it never varied much. :roll: The level in the gin optic did go down, but I mean to say, we were a pub, there were customers around, and I am sure some of them must have drunk Gin.

    Just wanted to jump in and say how much I love your stuff, Jack - just bought all the GIS models and the outfit as well. Really looking forward to trying them out. Thank you for all your hard work! :)

    [Raises a virtual Newcastle Ale, and toasts.] :lol:

    Yay to a new thread! When I opened the link to the previous JAS-thread, it was a "Couldn't find thread"-warning in red. Probably a newish post before the thread was surgically separated by le moderateur.

    Yeah thanks cho and MFM for that...I was laughing so much yesterday I could think of a worthy riposte and I still can't. :P But yes it wouldn't be far from the truth...It is all Jack's fault. Before I meet Jack I was quite sane. ;)

    Hide the chocolate

    I turn my attention to RL and you all go nuts!

    Seeing Miss B chasing Pete across Jacks quiet little local pub screaming for chocolate is just too much.
    Counting everyone in... 1.2.3 ....12.14!


    Bartender give me 14 glasses of whiskey, they best whiskey you have!

    (turning to you guys)

    Now you can order ;-)
