Well. What a long, strange trip it has been. Although the kind **sethdallob** already started another thread, I wanted to have this one where me and my little Fierra could share in our joint milestones - which came about on accident, actually.

So…here we are, together with a joint force of 4000 posts. Come and congratulate us, if you wish to participate. If not, that’s cool too, since bandwidth is scarce - drop us an e-mail instead. 🙂

Una and Fiona

Very long & very strange…I would never have guessed last year when I clicked on the link t othis site that I would have an addiction to a message board to contend with, plus many good friends from the board, email, chat & dopefests. Not to mention meeting and falling in love with Una, which has made me incredibly happy - she’s the eloquent one in the family, so I’ll leave it there, other than to say that she completes me and that I couldn’t imagine being without her. So thank you to all my friends and chat buddies, and to Una & most definitely to the board for existing, as without it, I wouldn’t have met her.
