....to remember contestants past who are no longer gracing our screens every evening.

This is my 1000th post and I promised Daniel I'd make it a good one, so if it's rubbish you all have to lie and make out like it's the greatest thing you've ever read on a forum. Or anywhere. Rivalling Shakespeare.

Anyway yeah, the other day I mentioned that the list of contestants and how long they'd been playing made me mourn the absence of the old players like SARAH (got to give her a mention if the post is dedicated to Daniel), Dave, Morris, Gary, Hilary, Gaz, Raj, Tan....need I go on? I loved them all and now they're gone!!!

Feel free to add your thoughts, comments, and congratulations to me, on reaching the 1000th post mark in 2 and a half months. If DavidF1 did not exist (I dare to dream) then I'm sure that would be quite a feat. As it stands, I'm quite proud of myself, my speedy typing, and the number of people I will coerce into reading this load of tripe through the mere allure of my screen name, responsible for so much quality posting, related to DoND or no.

Congrats if you got this far, I certainly wouldn't have read all that!

Hi Rhian
Huge hugs and Congrats on your 1000th posting.
You are a true star (and not just cause you added me to the list )
love Sarah x

PS. I miss everyone too

I was SO impressed with your 1000th post that I have decided to wait here until the 2000th one.

Your madness and randomness amuses me Chezza!

Did you add Matt to that list woman

I'm so honoured that I was mentioned. As was SARAH. Oh my.
