7k posts & almost 10 years! OMG it doesn't stop!

I registered here when i was 30 and i am now 40...wow time flies doesn't it?...7 seems to be an important and favorite number to me also. So i thought reaching 7k posts is reason enough to celebrate.

Especially now that this is coinciding with the 10th year of my participation in this lovely place.

Never lasted a long term relationship for a decade but i did in TRF without getting kicked out also

All i want to say thank you for the laughs, the company in between my work and family and friends and activities and for educating me on my passion for watches and watch collecting. I also hope i have made some contributions towards less experienced members.


I will not be doing another milestone thread except 10k posts perhaps.

Thanks TRF.

Your right about how time flies. Every year seems so much faster than the one before it.

Great effort, a great forum contributor. I think you should treat yourself to a new watch to celebrate. It's as good a reason as I can think of right now.
