   Re the above Eddie - you wish! We all know what you wrote.....

   You do realise that I lost beauty sleep last night as I had it in my head that you were going to post The News at midnight last night, don't you? Today I am holding you personally responsible for the bags under my eyes.

   Every other day I blame too much wine and not enough Adam's Ale of course :o)

   Well, we've just recorded something which will go some way to explaining. Formal details and announcement to come. But we wanted to let froggers know first.

    Yes, Jonnie, I am! I've told air traffic control that my private jet to the Bahamas cannot leave until I've heard this news. They've been most understanding. ;o)

    Eddie, congratulations on the milestones!

    I can't download audio from the blog at work, so I'm hoping that you'll be giving us the good news as text too.

    You do realise, Eddie, that I'm spending money making sure to log on while I'm out to catch the news... Don't keep us waiting too long!!!

    No announcement can be THAT exciting.

    "So I'm not the only person whose day revolves around P.M. and Eddie's emails? What a sad lot we all are ..... Or enlightened?"

    It's just job creation for the heck of it. Take money off A by force, give it to B who has just paid loads for a training course, try to make B pay tax and NI on it and hey presto - one less unemployed and more revenoo for the Treasury.

    A bit quiet here - perhaps everyone's celebrating on the beach?

    Frances O: No, you don't need medical help. You just need to chill out on The Beach a bit more, and stop worrying about it. I've heard rumours that the withdrawal symptoms from online life are severe and unpleasant...

    Now, 50,000 / 365 = 136.9863

    So, if we maintain an average of 137 posts per day, we'll easily reach 100,000 by this time next year :)
