  Well its amazing!!
  
  The viewing figures on Howards thread called "Where is it" have powered through the 100,000 barrier...not even mentioning the 235 pages or all the posts. The thread has been the most successful of all time... through all the variations of Doverforum. But its not an easy thread to do...it requires a lot of work to keep it running, it is a labour intensive notion, and Howard puts in all that work...and obviously as we can see it has proved hugely popular. So a big congratulations goes to Howard for it all...and here is the man himself..as seen on TV.
  
  

  

  
  
  Its good to see some of the guys are helping him out now with pictures...so it could run and run.
  
  
  
  So we must have a celebration drink in Blakes either next week or the following week...if you guys let me know which night is best so that all the oul regulars can drop in for a wee jar, just let me know below.
  
  Next saturday night could be good or the following friday but am open to offers ..we will make a bit of a presentation to Howard for his "World Record" and take the usual pictures.

  Well, there's a thing.
  
  Well done PaulB and of course, well done Howard.

  Where was I standing...
  (when I heard this news)
  What business operates...
  phrases that accompany views
  
  Odd shots of East Kent
  page upon page upon page
  much guesswork is spent
  from both dullard and sage
  
  Many must trudge around
  with their eyes cast down
  though sites to see abound
  out and about and in town
  
  Whoopee! for Howard
  for showing all how
  to look up and look forward
  To Howard we bow.
  Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

  The "WHERE IS IT" thread has gone from strength to strength, it took off from the word go and has kept everyone guessing, so well done Howard it is your baby and you made it a popular thread on the Forum.
  
  So as PaulB has said it most certainly calls for a celebration

  Did someone mention drink?
  
  Perhaps if you could could put up a picture of Blakes I might know where it is!

  A great thread, thought provoking, informative and irritating when the place is familiar but I can't recall where.
  
  Long may it last.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Yes, I've been keeping a close eye on this very popular thread, watching it edge towards the magical figure of 100,000, with of course a celebration party in mind at none other than the warm environs of Blakes
  
  Congratulations Howard!!!!!! You have done a splendid job
  
  How does this coming Saturday 18th or the following Saturday 25th sound, the latter date works better for an extra surprise or two Anyways let me know.
  
  Very handsome pic of Howard above, look at that pose, watch out Andrew Marr!!!
