We're almost on course for a new 'Busiest Month' on the Forum, with 4350 posts at the moment, very close to the top spot of 4585 posts from August 2013. Can we get another 236 posts before midnight on Saturday night?!
(For those interested, the monthly stats can be found here: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?action=stats (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?action=stats), and the overalls can be seen in that little box to the top right of the screen, underneath the News Box. We need the total Forum posts number to hit 141954...)

Cool!

Huzzah!
However, only the blessed are allowed to see the stats. :(
What are we trying to do ? :-\ ;)
I can't keep up with the new posts at the moment.
Cheers - Phil
I'll post a reply to see if that may happen.
Definitely going for quantity not quality, aren't we?
You don't expect anything different from me, surely ? :D
Cheers - Phil.
The Forum's signal to noise ratio just nosedived again!

But doesn't quantity have a quality all of its own.
or - well we have to sacrifice quality to let you post.
or Is it something to do with strange head gear, odd tanks and chocolate bars.......
Perm any one from three - take the one you find most offensive. :d :'(

If Nik puts up some more pics on the Totty thread, then we will definitely surpass it ;).

Cheers - Mr Forgetful.
Promotion at 3000, as I got one earlier this month, before I adopted a sunnier outlook.
Thanks, Bob.
So...after 3000, it's 5000 ? :-\ Then 7500 ?.....Then 10000 ?
Cheers - Phil.
Only 112 new posts needed, oh no, now of course it is 111. :)
Can we do this at the end of every month?
Good luck chaps!
109 then it would seem.
I just thought of something funny to say... No, no, it's gone.
I never let that bother me.
I'm going to worry about it all night.
Eighty more to go......Well...... 79 after I hit 'post'.
Cheers - Phil.

NO !!!!!!

CENTURION TANKS!!!!
My, this is fun!
MATILDA ARMOURED CAR.!!!!
Can't work out how to make giant letters.
It's the "A" with the up and down arrow on it on the toolbar. Gives you a
size=10pt
which you can then change.
Matilda Armoured Car? Explain!
Use the A(up-down Arrow), and change the number - it only goes to 50? .
IanS
The Matilda company produced armoured cars which were used a lot by the Belgian cavalry as supports in 1914. I think the British in Antwerp also used them and some were sent to Russia as well (with Belgian crews). As far as I can tell the only company making them in a useable scale is Peter Pig in 15mm.
CHOCOLATE COVERED CENTURIONS STUFFED WITH AZTECS! failing that,PICTS!
You can't press chocolate in a vulcanizing machine 1.....Sheesh !....Don't you lot know anything ? :D
Cheers - Phil
No.
As far as I can tell, we've beaten the record already !....Huzzah for us !! :-bd :-bd :-bd
I was going to ask what the weather was like with everybody....(VILE here.....Hail, snow, harsh Northerly winds.).....But we won't need that now. ;)
Keep warm, all. (Apart from Paul and our other friends in the Antipodes)....He'll be keeping too warm. ;)
Cheers - Phil

I think it's the Minerva armoured car you are referring too?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minerva_Armored_Car
HUZZAR - colloquial version of Hurrah - favoured by various upper class plotruns and imitative Welshmen
Hussar - Hungarian lt cavalryman
DONT YOU KNOW ANYTHING
NO CHOCOLATE BARS.....

Glad that's over. May I now point out that shouting doesn't increase the number of posts?

Now I have to unlearn what I just learned. >:(
Thank you, Ian. And is it true that Little Dorrit is a work of fiction?
No FK - terminal BOREDOM.....like any Dickens fiction.
IanS
Contradicting yourself there, implicitly at least.
No, he's right. Only decent line in a Dicken's novel is in Oliver Twist, "Do not say you have seen me, Dick."
Not questioning his opinions in my comment. But he seems to imply it's not a work of fiction, and that it's boring because it's a work of Dickens' fiction. True, the book is not stated to be a work of fiction in itself, but the rest of the post is meaningless without that inference.
And that, M'Lud, is the case for the prosecution.
I had to endure 'Little Dorrit' as part my A level English :(. It was truly painful reading. However the BBC did a decent dramatisation of it a few years ago which I enjoyed.
I must have been lucky. We didn't have Dickens we had Greene's Brighton Rock for 'O' Level. Didn't read it then and never read it since...still managed a 'C' at English Literature despite that. Never read any Dickens or any of the other so called classics either. Tried Moby Dick once and ending missing out whole chapters while trying to find something interesting. Hmmm, was it serialised in one of the periodicals first I wonder? Give me a good Stephen King or Robert Heinlein and I'm happy.
Problem with Stephen King is; he doesn't know how to end novels without apocalyptic sequences.
4719 posts as of this one, so we've hit a new monthly record! Cheers!

As Kubrick rather indirectly points out, King can put together a good story, but his prose is utterly devoid of flavour.

Perfectly put ;)
I understand that Kubrick has given widespread satisfaction. :)
Yeah, he's done okay :)
