I was taught at school that "empty vessels make most noise" so I'm not sure if I should be proud or apologetic but I'm coming up fast on my 5,000th post :eek:

I offer my sincere "Thanks" to Tony and his fabulous team of Moderators for this site... which has literally helped to turn my life with D around, and thanks to you all for putting up with my ramblings ;)

Quality to match the quantity. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. :)

Just think how quickly you might have got to 5k if only you'd had nothing to say :confused:

Keep up the great work.

Thank you for the kind words bunbury :) although I'm not sure that the "wisdom" part is justified in my case.. I may have a lot to say but sometimes I could probably do with biting my tongue a little more ;)

Thanks Granny :cool: BTW when is the next scheduled meeting for us school-yard bullies... out behind the bike-shed as usual? :D

Congratulations to your 5,000th post, you have been an immense contribution to me and others on this forum, may I take this opportunity to thank you once again for your positive, articulate and brilliant answers to most of my started threads and post.

May I also add; The possibilities of getting good solid information are obviously endless on this forum, the true platform becomes more useful as you grow a list of people you admire rhetorically and follow, of those, you can learn from what they do to better manage your diabetes, a true mentor my friend, :) keep up the good work.
Thanks very much again "Frank". (see you around the forum)
