congrats to Monte

I would like to start a new thread here in the 'hangout' to extend a congrats and thanks to Monte for his moderator efforts. I think Mare has done a good job and now w/ the 2 of them working together I believe things will work very well.

Thanks for volunteering your time Monte.

I've read his posts, and found him to be knowledgeable, fair minded and a gentleman. So my question is, "What the heck is he doing around here!?"

(Congrats sir.)

Martin

A Bang-up Job

I haven't been on Twins Hangout much lately and hadn't noticed the promotion. Good choice. And you both must be doing a good job keeping the peace because I don't smell napalm.

I agree. A big thank you to Monte for spending time making this Forum possible (and also to all the other moderators and volounteers). The fact that Monte has shown great diplomatic skills bode well.

Nice to see you settling back into your forum Monte.

....and ntr1972, hate to pop your balloon but I've seen Bonnies in Invercargill, 45 degrees South. You may have to alter your claim to the most southern Bonnie in Australia !

Ride on !
