Howdy there Jeff, Kai, Blas, Joe, Za, Joe, Otto, Slon, :-D
Jeff, I know where your coming from. Glad to hear the wife is going back to work and is on the mend. Just recently, I managed to break the bones in Nr 3-4 toes, on my right foot--by accidently banging it into the the bottom of the antique oak Wardrobe I have.
Kai, thank you my favorite Finnish friend. :-D
Thank you Blas, it took several years to get here. If I can ever get a computer set-up at home, 20,000 is reachable in the near future.
Kai, I know a guy on a militaria site that about 2-3 years ago, had well over 13,000 postings there. No telling where he is at now?
Joe, im not sure of numbers for this award but, this award has been around since the 1700s and awarded through and slightly after WWI.
Thank you Otto, it has been fun especially recently :-D
Slon, thank you as well my friend. I don't think it will take you too long to catch up--just ask Friedrich ;-))
