To Steve and the moderators, thank you for putting in the hours it takes, to make this such a great place to share our common passion. A ton of work goes on behind the scenes, and I don’t take it for granted.

To my friends here, thank you for sharing your stories, your knowledge, your insights and your humour. You may never know how you can impact someone from this platform. I’ve experienced your random acts of kindness here … too many to mention. I’m always interested to hear your thoughts and the many different points of view. We may disagree at times, but it’s always in a respectful way.

Anyway, I really enjoy this place. It feels comfortable, and familiar, maybe a bit like a favourite cup of coffee … TRF is what I wake up to every day, and usually the last thing I read before I turn in.

Thank you all
Always enjoy your posts!

Congrats Brian. You’re the model of what any member should strive for.

Never take the bait when others make snarky replies or crazy posts. 60,000 posts are legendary. Looking forward to seeing the next 60,000
