At the rate we're accumulating members do you think there may be a chance?

500 members by Christmas?  I almost think theres a distinct possibility that something similar might come close enough to just about happen.  Perhaps.....   ;D

Its certainly taken a big upswing since the TV article and the e-bay showing, so could well be.  Certainly getting busier, thats for sure!!   8-)

Perhaps anybody selling anything Omega related on ebay should put a mention about us in their advert?
Could be worth some free advertising.

You are becoming a bit of a star addict aren't you Markie.

You've got quite enough, don't be greedy.

There are people in the world who have no stars at all.

Just be grateful for what you've got.
