Talking alot .....

[sail7seas]

I know I talk alot but I just noticed I hit 5,000 posts AGAIN!!
It's embarrassing but I sure have had fun doing it!!

Thanks everyone for keeping this great BB busy. I can't imagine what I did before I found this place. Oh yah.....I remember. I used to do alot more housework around here. :p

Sail, I too think this is a great and informative board - for some reason I do a lot more reading than posting - will have to work on that. I'm surely with you on the housework bit however - that moved near the bottom of my priority list many years ago. Perhaps that's why I enjoy cruising so much - don't have to do those "chores" and don't even feel guilty about it.

Congratulations on hitting 5000+

Wow, and I thought I was a blabbermouth! But that's quite an achievement. So, on behalf of all of us who learn from your experience -

Congrats S7S!!! :)

You are a part of what makes the board so special!!!!!:D

[sail7seas]

Thanks, everyone.....


So does this mean I can keep jabbering away? :D

It's fun for me and I learn alot here. How best to feed our HAL/cruising obsession between being aboard the 'dam' ships.

(Dave - I love that medalion....wonder if I can have it made in 18K gold and studded with a few diamonds here and there??? Whaddayathink? Maybe it calls for another trip to the jewelers of St. Thomas :) )

I found the picture at "Carina's Italian Charms (http://www.carinacharms.com/cgi-bin/carina/results.html?id=6XRaMiMV)" (or something like that:o ), which seems like a treasure trove for charm-wearing cruisers!

Congratulations. Thanks for sharing your wealth of information with us.

[bluehorizonlover123]

Wow congrats. You must spent alot of time on your computer

[K&RCurt]

Congrats.........

I can remember lurking here for quite a while before my first post.

Then when I did post I was SO EXCITED that S7S replied!

I consider you one of the "icons" of the HAL board and respect your opinion (although maybe I don't always AGREE with your opinion!).

Thanks for sharing with us all your knowledge, experience and opinions on HAL.

Hear-Hear!!!

Thank You for sticking around w/ us, S7S -
- Your presence and experience would be sorely missed if you ever left us...

Sail, Thanks for all your input that has helped me make several decisions. You seem to enjoy cruising so much and your enthusiasm is contagious. I hope someday I will have the pleasure to meet you on a Holland cruise. Please keep sharing.

[sail7seas]

Really....... Thank you for all the nice comments.


I appreciate it and appreciate all of you. Like some others here, I no longer work outside my house and I love playing here. I have the time and this is my favorite subject. If something I write helps someone, that make me very happy.

The next best thing to cruising is talking about it IMO

Dave....

I just took a quick peek at that site and it is amazing. It would be very easy to spend about 2 weeks 'roaming around' there. Fun!!!

Sandy Beach and everyone.........I would so like to meet all aboard a 'dam' ship someday.

I know it's near impossible to get everyone to agree on a date/ship etc but it would be alot of fun if we could get alot of the HAL CC'ers together at the same time.

I agree that would be the ultimate cruise :)

But ....


Is it possible??

Congrats S7S!!! :)

Ditto from me, too, Sail ...

And each of your posts add something to the board, I might add.

May you reach 10,000 in no time flat.

Sail, congratultions on having so much information! It's not as though you just "talk a lot" ... you have valuable information for all of us and I want to tell you how much I value and enjoy all your posts.

I've had such a time accessing this thread that I only now was able to post. Here's to 5000 more of yours!!!!:D

[ekerr19]

Sail,

I actually saw your 5,000th post and was going to comment if you'd noticed it and I got busy... Congratulations! I've enjoyed reading your posts ever since I've joined this forum. I hope we get to meet on a "Dam" ship someday too. :)

I love those charms - I looked at the site where Dave pulled the anchor charm and it also has some really cute Itailian bracelet charms - I just might order one for my DD. Thanks Dave!

The wealth of information of these boards constantly amazes me - I never would have found that site on my own.

[jhannah]

Wow! If your computer goes belly up you'll have a severe case of withdrawal! Don't know if the Betty Ford Clinic can address that or not. ;)

Keep 'em coming.

[stanford's girl]

S7S,

Congrats on your posts!!!:D They have proved to be a wealth of information for me. If you ever figure out how to fit your housework in, please let me know. I'm still searching for a way!!!:)
