How long will it take us to get to 10,000 posts?

[Biggie]

Thank you for your Tuesday wishes.

 

[DallasFanForever]

I hope you have an easier Tuesday. Surely Mondays must be a rush with the back-ups over the weekend.

Thank you Michelle!! My Tuesday was much slower. Monday is always crazy. And we’re kind of short staffed right now cause we have about 10 people out with the virus.

I hope ur having a nice Tuesday as well my friend!!

Indeed. We need all the help we can get to achieve this deadline.

Let’s see, where do we stand? We’re 35 posts away with a week to go. That’s not bad! I think we squeak it out.

Wow, 10 people out. Did they have the virus or did they have contact with someone that does? It seems we still have some timne to go before this virus is behind us.

Indeed, we have to do more squeaking, we have less than a week to go.

It seems like they all have it. The scary part is a lot of them work directly around me in the morning at our station but I’m trying not to think about that.

Unfortunately I think ur right and we still have a long way to go til this mess is behind us.

Well, we’re 33 posts away. It does seem kind of bleak, doesn’t it? But I have a feeling we make it.

Hope everyone is having a nice Wednesday!!

With regard to the virus and the on going situation, I'm in agreement with the comments above, there's still a long way to go before we turn the corner.

On a more upbeat note, I am going to Swindon today to give the good folks there a reason to smile!

I had to google Swindon, as I’ve never been to the UK. It looks like a really nice place!

I wish more people would understand this the way we do, cause sadly I don’t think a lot of people do.

Well, we’re 31 posts away with 6 days to go. As the turtle said to the duck as they both tried to cross the interstate, “We’re not dead yet.”

(Sorry, sorry. Bad joke)

Happy Thursday to everyone!

Just ..... just 30 to go to #4300.

Happy Thursday to you as well Michelle!! I hope you’re having a good day, and the same to everyone else on this thread!!

 

[Michelle Stevens]

We need a very active countdown to achieve our goal by next Tuesday night.

27 (I think) to go....

 

[Michelle Stevens]

Happy Friday everyone! :dance1:

Hello everyone. Hope you're all in fine fettle.

@DallasFanForever sometimes it escapes me that people who meet here are scattered across the world. I find myself in various places due to the nature of my employment. I'll spare you the hyperbole. But yes, Swindon is a nice town, Birthplace of Diana Dors, she's the Fairy Godmother in the Prince Charming video (Adam and the Ants)

Now 26 to the next milestone by my mathematics.

I good Friday here. August is nearing it's end.

Is Swindon near Bristol? Michelle is curious.

Now 26 to the next milestone by my mathematics.

25 to go!

@Michelle Stevens Bristol is 40 minutes away from Swindon. I had a little look around Bristol city centre last weekend, and I was struck by all the public art. Struck me as a very vibrant city. Lots of excellent musicians are from Bristol. Massive Attack formed there in '88 and released Unfinished Sympathy in February '91. The schoolboy that would become me noticed this track. Eventually inducting into "Soundtrack Of My Life". That's a big ask, to be awarded that accolade!

Hope you enjoy....

I have the same problem. And I know very little about countries other than the US. And quite honestly the more I live here I feel the less I know about it as well!!

Well, we’re only 23 away now. That’s a tall order but we can do it.

I hope everyone is having a nice Friday!! Mine was a challenge I have to say. But I’m glad it’s over and glad to be home as well.

Everyone enjoy the weekend and stay safe!!

Great song! I had never heard of Massive Attack but now I know and like them. I learn so much about music from this forum.

I was looking at information on Bristol and see they have a large suspension bridge. Wow, that is worth seeing. It makes me want to visit England again.

I've been to about 23 countries and still think the more I learn the less I really know if that makes sense. That or I'm getting dumber as I get older.

Well, we’re only 23 away now. That’s a tall order but we can do it.

We have to try. We can't let @Long Lashes think we've been idling away whilst she's been away.

TGIF! I assume you are off work until Monday?

Everyone enjoy the weekend and stay safe!!

Have a good and restful weekend my friend. I'll try to stop in to help move this thread along if I can.

19 to go....

I feel the same way. A few times a week I hear a song or find an artist on here and then I start googling them and ask myself why I’ve never heard of them before.

I was looking at information on Bristol and see they have a large suspension bridge. Wow, that is worth seeing. It makes me want to visit England again

England is definitely on my list of places to visit one day. It looks like such a beautiful country!

I've been to about 23 countries

23 Michelle? God I feel lazy now about having never left the US!! I really need to start traveling more.

 

[DallasFanForever]

LOL!! I don’t think we’re getting dumber. Older? We can’t avoid that but definitely not dumber.

But I do know what you mean. The more I think I know the less I really do.

We have to try. We can't let @Long Lashes think we've been idling away whilst she's been away.

I do miss her. Keep that between us though cause I don’t want it to go to her head. I got so used to all of you now. I think I chat with some of you more than my own family.

TGIF! I assume you are off work until Monday?

I do wish!! I work half a day Saturday for the overtime. I’m usually done by 12 and then I’m off til Monday morning.

You have a good weekend too!! I’m assuming ur working as well? I will try to stop in here as well.

Only 17 posts away!!
