Just under 3 hours to go to, for the final time, send me your votes. The top two have more or less the same gap, but I'm not saying which order they are in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

QUOTE(petrat @ Sep 14 2008, 10:31 AM)  Feather old bean, you are not of an age to be on the list of members of the Year! I have just looked at your profile pic and I am quite shocked at the maturity that you portray for one so young. It's that new anti aging cream I've been using. |

The PM lines have now closed, and the winner is...
barry-clari (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap.gif) Barry's forum event organisation and part-time awards duty job amongst other things has helped him to become the 2008 member of the year. Petrat claims the runner-up spot, making it her ninth top 5 finish of the year - and that's without winning an award! I finished in a creditable 3rd place. Member Of The Year 2008 - Final League Table (IMG:http://ashuu.free.fr/phpBB2/images/smiles/3winner_first_h4h.gif) barry-clari = 104 (IMG:http://ashuu.free.fr/phpBB2/images/smiles/3winner_second_h4h.gif) petrat = 95 (IMG:http://ashuu.free.fr/phpBB2/images/smiles/3winner_third_h4h.gif) Car Expert = 74 4th: DaisyChain = 70 5th: katyjay = 64 6th: sbhoa = 50 7th: skylark = 41 8th: Mad Tom = 41 9th: noodle = 38 10th: andante_in_c = 36 11th: Miss Ross = 32 12th: fsharpminor = 25 13th: lucky045 = 22 14th: AmandaL = 20 15th: dcmbarton = 18 16th: mwl1 = 17 17th: carol*piano = 16 18th: A.U.K = 14 19th: Andy-piano-flute = 12 20th: notmusimum = 11 21st=: Maizie = 10 21st=: StuMac = 10 23rd: briantrumpet = 9 24th: Rosemary7391 = 8 25th: Cyrilla = 7 26th: The Old Lady = 7 27th=: BerkshireMum = 6 27th=: EdGJ = 6 27th=: kerioboe = 6 27th=: peri busy = 6 31st: oldnotes = 6 32nd: Panthera = 3 33rd=: Robodoc = 1 33rd=: willobie = 1 And that's it - voting has now finished and the winners have been confirmed for all the awards category - except for Most PM Points, where the winner will be announced tomorrow. Thanks to everyone who has taken part and voted this year, and well done to those who have received votes this year, and of course well done to all of this year's winners. Look out for a possible awards ceremony in the next couple of weeks - details to be confirmed soon! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Car Expert |

Well done petrat (a 10th January 2006 1-2 I notice! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)), Car Expert and everyone else on the list. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
...and now you get a speech (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Thank you for voting me as member of the year 2008. It's really flattering. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I think it's time to thank a few selected forumites, without whom I wouldn't have done half the things I've done on the forum, and would not have got anywhere near a member of the year shout. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) In no particular order: katyjay, andante_in_c, sbhoa and their respective families : without your help/guidance, I'd never have got any of my ideas/events etc. off the ground. meerkat : I tried out my playday ideas at her Harborough events. Without Harborough, there'd be no Eccles, no York next year etc. We're coming back to Harborough next year, and I can't wait. Thank you meerkat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Meerkat, along with katyjay, encouraged me to sing again. I am eternally grateful! noodle, Andy-piano-flute and family, CastlegoreAFB and her flute band : the three of you are largely responsible for the excellent time I had in Northern Ireland last month, and between the three of you, we have a good programme of things to do over there in 2009. I can't wait to come back, I really fell in love with the place, and I can't wait to play in the flute band again CastlegoreAFB, you and the band have so much talent (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) notmusimum and family : this is a family with a lot of ambition. This is good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Eccles is promising to be an amazing event, and there's more for 2009. And you're just such lovely people! It's a pleasure to help you out. Cyrilla : it was high time I resurrected my limited Kodaly knowledge. And my teaching is rather better for it - thank you! ...and of course all the other friends I've made here. We all make it the friendly, happy forum it is. So all give yourselves a cheer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hurrah.gif) Thank you again! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I haven't been around for a while, but who could possibly disagree with Barry in this category? He's the best. XX
