Two thousand posts!!!

Congratulations Bernie. It's been a pleasure reading your informative comments, seeing your amazing images and, best of all, being able to spend some time with you both at your home and at our all too infrequent minimeets.

You are a stalwart of the SEQld chapter and we commend you for all your efforts here.

Thanks, mate!

When I read the heading I thought ”Oh no! Bernie has cracked” Thanks Simon :lol:

Bernie has been solid and dependable in his advice not only in photography but renovations as well. Congrats bp :)

well done bernie.
I thought the title of the post was about post numbers, had me wondering for a few seconds though

I still havent managed to crack anything yet (except for a few mirrors and stuff)

1000 is inching my way though

I'm not so sure Bernie hasn't cracked in some way but, as we all know. that's just part of his charm, Chris!

With the huge increase in posts, I tried to give this thread a heading that would attract attention. :wink:

Congrats! Your an excellent contributor and have provided many pearls of wisdom to those that seek them. I didn't realise you also offered renovation advice, but I'll bear it in mind :)

Nice one Bernie... Excellent posts and images...

I didn't realise that you did advice on renovations - I wish I'd asked before starting mine... :?

Bernie

Congrats on this achievement. Buried in those posts is lots of valuable info and advice from your huge store of experience as well as many superb images. And if that weren't enough to make you invaluable around here, you are a stalwart of the SEQ crew too. I just had a very tasty glass of 1994 Semillon to toast your milestone. Think I'll have another... :D
