The first site.....yes...... It was hosted with some free company but they didn't allow me to take a backup of the data when I decided to move away from them and host my own site

Since then there has been a minor incident with an upgrade. Lost very little but I keep on being reminded of it

I'm in Slovakia at the moment running around in half meter of snow on the Polish border so I might not post soon but I could organize some free "5 year" stickers if someone comes up with some designs that we can choose from.

I remember joining in 07. Was just before I got my bug. Remember googling vw beetles south africa, to look at the different types and year models I could find here. Lurked for a while, and registered abit after that. And just like blitz. Not a single day since have I not been online. Its addictive. Lol and after 3yrs, I have the bug running, roadworthy'd and semi understood.
Bring on a partaaaay, aircooled style.

How is this for an suggestion?
1)We make a 5 yr sticker that everyone can get.
2) Then we make a 5yr T-Shirt that you can get IF and when you belong to the site for 5yrs! Something to aim for!
I wouldn't mind paying for a new t-shirt mine are getting to the stage that they are a bit thread bare and need replacing!!! We can come up with a design that incorporates all the aspects of ths site, maybe a few designes and then we can vote on it?

Nope, +1 for birthday on the 11th
2 birthdays plus the site turning 5 years, we really could have a huge ass party!
