BlacknStormy's 1000th post

Postby Manta on Sun Apr 23, 2006 12:36 pm

Congratulations Narelle on reaching 1000 posts!

You're always there with a kind word, a good tip or a cheeky joke. On top of that, you've posted some of the best fauna images we've seen on this forum and provided many members with valuable insight into the little critters that inhabit our world but would otherwise go unnoticed. I personally have learned so much from you and Damo and attribute any skills I may have picked up along the way solely to your expert tutelage.

We all look forward to many more contributions from you.

Thanks guys :) Thought I'd sneak through, and no-one would notice :) (Trust you Manta !) Don't feel like I deserve the congrats - I have learnt so much from all of you, and have enjoyed using this forum so much over the last couple of years !!!!! Should be congratulating all of you for letting me stay here, and for putting up with my jokes ;) !!!!

Thanks again
This is the BEST forum on the net !!!!!!!!

Hi Narelle,

Well, what can I say?

If it wasn't for your encouragement and enthusiasm for this forum, I would probably never have joined. You are always so positive about everything you do, your photography has gone ahead in leaps and bounds and above all, you're a great person.

I'm also chuffed to be a fellow-workmate and to call you a friend.

Congrats on a 1000 posts

Cheers

Michael

Rel

A great milestone for a great member. First female to join the 1K club. You've really jumped along in leaps and bounds since you first joined (just like your avatar :cry: ). It's also fantastic to see another Queenslander make the milestone. I look forward to more of those critter pics you do so well.
