My guess of April 14th was passed over, but if we average 70 entries every day for the next 8 days (Which is stretching it!), John may squeeze by.
But after all is said and done, I concede to Harry & Lena with their date of May 31st...............Henry

I have been checking out the total posts, and I agree --Harry and Lena look like winners---I think they were front runners from early on.

If bigdipper and myself keep playing in "Fun & Games", this forum will have 75,000 posts around May 20th, which means Lena & Harry
were the closest with May 31st......Congrats, L & H ! !

Well, we are at 74960 just now--so almost there.

I am going to be out for most of the day--so we may hit it before I get home-but I doubt it.

So it is a definate triumph for Harry and Lena--just 2 weeks out-noone else was anywhere near.

WELL DONE, HARRY AND LENA.

Well, thank you all very much for the congratulations on us predicting the nearest date to reach the 7,5000 postings .
I chose that date thinking mainly of my Sister-In-Laws Birthday on the 31st of May, but it's all worked out around Harry'.
Next target.. who knows :) :)

I was thinking of our new target to be 100,000. And I was thinking of offering a small prize for the winner--to make it more interesting, and also to get more people to join in. I know it will be some time away.

I will start a new thread for it soon.

Thank you also Sandra and John. :) Looks as if we shall have to think up One or Two new games. I've been racking my brains but nothing original comes to mind at the moment, but hopefully it will. :) :)

Congratulations, yet again L&H. No verse this time
but perhaps an idea for a new game. If it hasn't been
done before, why don't we each contribute a favourite
Matt Monro track towards a compilation entitled
The Connoisseurs' Collection, or Fans' Favourites.
Michele may even consider producing a CD of our
suggestions. Anyway it would be fun finding out.
On the basis of allowing one track for each forum member,
I would, after much soul-searching, nominate Skylark.

That is a good idea Keith--but I think it warrants a separate thread. favourite Matt track---but a good idea is always a goOd idea !!!
