Five years and five days.
That's how long ago I joined this forum.
I remember it well, and we had less than 100 members at that time. Thanks to all for making it a fun place to hang out.

Thanks mate!
I meant to post five days ago, but I was traveling internationally for work and I had limited internet access at times. I'm five days late to my own party.
