Thanks Gary for providing a place for like minded, or fellow addicts to come and share their thoughts, opinions, photos and lots more. While the milestone probably doesn't mean much to you, we recognise 7000, helpful, inciteful and informative posts, well almost 7000, the rest are just example of you unique sense of humour (extreme mate in public) :)

7K on Valentines day! There must be some significance there, but I'm damned if I can find it.
Congratulations on spawning an excellent forum.

Gary thanks and congratulations for this extreme -ly wonderful site where we can engage in our lusts (and some occasional mate in public) without fear of censorship (not counting the word censor of course) :D

Yep, thanks Gary, for the time you spent creating this home away from home and also thanks for the times where things didn't go too well (hacking, hosting issues etc) and you spent many hours resolving the issues.

Thanks. :)

Thanks, Gary.

At the risk of becoming emotional, this site and especially the people involved, filled a need in my poor existence that went unrecognised :!:

You have provided a new outlet that makes an old man very happy :wink:

Your labours should not go unrewarded... see me at the next mini-meet

:twisted:

Gary, as you've administrated past seven thousand posts now - thanks for the initiative of creating and your efforts to continue providing a space for which we all may participate and share and learn and socialise and meet and do other things.
