Yay! 1000 Posts!

Finally hit the four figures!

I never would have imagined when I joined this site back in October last that it would have held such interest for me, but it's been absolutely fantastic, and the people likewise fun and helpful in equal measure.

Learnt more in five months here, than in many years of flicking through mags and even in the club-set.

Here's to IIS

Welcome to the club Rob

It's a funny sort of site. First it's a bit overwhelming, then it gets comfortable, then it gets obsessive until finally it gets addictive....seriously addictive.

You're more than welcome to join us closet 12 steppers at Astrorons on the first saturday before/after the new moons for sharing.

Welcome to the club mate
