This was mentioned inside another post, but this deserves a post of its own.

Birddog has hit the 5000 posts mark.

Congratulations on the quality of your contribution to the forum.
Congratulations on spreading the lens lust to all and sundry
Congratulations on doing such a great job with birddy's house of bargains
Congratulations on helping the forum by playing host (with assistance from your charming wife) for regular Saturday meets

and I could say more, but I'll leave that to others.

You're the most giving person I've ever met and my life is the richer for it.

I look forward to your next 5000 posts :wink:

Wow birdy - what a milestone. I don't know how you get all your 'normal' work done AND post as often as you do...one hell of a very organised guy. I can only echo what has been said above and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your continuuing support to the forum and the awsome prices you get for us, as well as the splendid mini-meets at your house of a Saturday morning! Here's to another 5000 posts in which you share your wisdom and thoughts.
