Tengus 10 Thousandth post competition

[Tengu]

Well, I am pretty much a fixture here, and at the Moot.

(Last year was an exception but I hope to be back this summer)

I really cannot express how much you have helped me grow as a person over the years, I dont get involved socialy much, not even online.

I am pretty garralous too, and its comming up to my 10000 post.

So, a competition!

I have a nice offering of my own making.

I want to ask you.

Be imaginative!

Congratulations on both the soon to be10,000th post, and on the effort and success you have made of breaking out of your comfort zone.
You've done so much, made such a richness of life, I hope it's been good and continues to thrive, even if it is a bit more stressful than you'd like.

10 thousandth post!

And I have such a hard choice. Johns is good (I wish!) and Grummits is good (Never lost her...But I suspect you would not want to meet her; she is even more of a Tengu than I am) and Toddys is good. (Dont tempt me)

Zingmo, as Though it is mundane, it is credible finds...and I think I would like that paper.

PM me!

I have never been there but I find that I can be fascinated by someone else's obsession with the history of a place.

[Tengu]

So! Well, what do you know? It does exist!

Parcel off today; I hope you like it.

 

[oldtimer]

I'm glad I clicked on your ling Zingmo. Horspath is within long walking distance from where I live but I only knew it as a place name. I'll read the article later when I can give it the attention it deserves.

This makes my feel like another winner in your competition, Tengu, so thanks for running it and congratulations on your 10000th.

 

[Tengu]

It was a good read, wasnt it? (Need distraction from the fonds! Tutor will be so wroth!)

Its been sent, Zingmo, please let me know when it arrives.

 

[Zingmo]

Poncho!
In warm spark-resistant wool for chilly nights round the fire in the woods.

Thank you Tengu!
