Milestones are important. I could give lots of reasons why, but I won’t. Just accept that they are, OK?
Which is why I was firstly all excited when I noticed that I’d posted 700 posts, and then a little narked when I noticed what the 700th post was. I mean, a cryptic throw-away post about what a chicken I am is hardly worthy of a milestone post now, is it?
Ah well, it’s done now. Not a lot I can do to change history.
But I just wanted to say thank you to y’all - over three thousand comments is pretty good going, especially considering only posts since December 2005 have comments due to the move from Blogger to Wordpress and my own server. For the curious, that means there have been roughly 450 fresh posts made on brightmeadow.co.uk and you’ve all been adding to them in your own inimitable style to the average tune of 6.9 comments per post.
You commenters really have made Bright Meadow so much more fun, so again, I thank you. And for you other people who I know are out there, lurking at your keyboards, reticent to join in - come and say hi. We don’t bite and I want to hear what you have to say
