Happy anniversary

As milestones go, it’s not one for the record books, but the sentimentalist in me feels compelled to note that it is precisely one year today since I made my first modest contribution to this noble site. How time flies.

Okay, so you all forgot, but I forgive you. No need to send flowers. (But hey, if you were looking for a tenuous excuse to have a few drinks today, let this be it.) Anyway, it’s been a consistent pleasure writing for, and conversing with, you guys over the last twelve months. Long may it continue.

(Something else that happened exactly a year ago, by the way? My beloved twins “Happy-Go-Lucky” and “In Bruges” were born on the same day in their — and my — home country. 2008 certainly got off to a good early start, didn’t it?)

    If you don’t mind me asking, what do you for a job outside of this site?

    Indeed. We’re better off for having you around here, Guy. Thanks for a year’s worth of solid work.

    Thanks, chaps. A pleasure, as ever.

    I know I’ve been a bit of an nay sayer at times, but you really are a welcome read on this site. Congrats Guy.

    I haven’t hung out here long enough, but it’s always fun reading your stuff, Guy. Congratulations and happy anniversary! (Here’s some virtual champagne from me to you.)

    About “In Bruges”, it’s premiering on HBO at my side of the planet this evening! I finally get to watch it. Better late than never.
