Hi PD's .....had a call from the Chancellor of the University of Cheshire @ CREWE & Alsager the other evening.... turns out he wanted to know if I could bear reference for a new & exceptional student called Mr Bandit..
Initially I said :nono as my CONVICT stock has no mention of a Mr Bandit.... but then :thinking & so I asked :?: :?: could this new student have FOUR legs :?:
Well .... yes was the response & the three of us had a good dog chin wag :gather :hehe & I had a :beer
Always a good end to the story.....Mr Bandit confirmed the reason for his good mathamatical skills is due to his Master enjoying so much the building a new steam engine & reporting this on PD's & hence the need to ask the DOG what the dimensions should be :hehe :nah - you have just got of laugh PD's & a :no1 engine build John
But back to Mr Bandit :rant & the calcs :clap2 ..... he sees that 3484 views have been placed on one singular folder thread since it opened just some 2 months ago & this represents a 768.25 fold increase in viewing of any singular thread in our PD history
So :great Mr Bandit for your :computer skills...........& to your Masters postings

Hi Derek,
Many thanks for the stats. Since Bandit read about them he seems to think he is some sort of demi-dog (anagram of GOD), and has taken to wearing Raybans and a cravat, I'm just waiting for the long fag holder to come out, then he will have the complete look, but he will have to give up smoking bones first.
But joking aside, I posted on here because there was genuine interest from other PD's in what I was attempting to do, I'm not after fame and glory, just someone to read my posts and maybe get a bit of inspiration from it. Anything that makes the site known to more people and as long as they get enjoyment from it, I am all in favour. I get things wrong sometimes, and there is always a gentle push from other members to get back on track. No backstabbing or criticism, just genuine interest. Shouldn't all sites be like this one.
I just hope that the visitors take the time to view other topics on the site while they are here. I read all the new posts, not just the ones I am interested in, I have learned and read about so many new and varied things since joining, it is an eye opener as to how knowledgeable the members on here really are, and how much interest, or should I call it obsession they have in such a minority subject.
So please, no need for stats, just read and enjoy everything on this great site.
John
