Matt! - site admin/marketing/policy/moderation department is after money to keep the site going. We're not about to spend it on nosh. Try again - big rosette for the right answer. (Clue the answer is numeric only and begins with £.)

But all that nonsense quite apart, thanks for for posting this Ruth. Yes, we're nearly at 1,000 after not much more than a year. Who'd 'ave thunk it. It's one way of measuring how successful the site's been. But I prefer to think in terms of impact and from a standing start I think we can all be pretty proud of our score there. So big pat on the back to us all.
Eddie and Paul's door-stepping got us a LOT of members in a very short time. I'm too shy to doorstep but I did drop cards through the doors of all the houses on my street a month ago and got not a single new member. My street is full of philistines. I think I'm moving to Effingham. Anyway, 1000th member to get a special welcome message from the site admin.

Yes I think that's all they'll get as my idea of a little welcome prize (prompted by Ruth) got met with 'money is needed for the site first' (!) Must be something to do with the credit crunch (is that a new Kelloggs cereal?).
