I think, 1000 posts ago, I said I wanted to be the 2000th post.

Did you honestly think this would still be going?
We've still got more than two months to go...
We're always very grateful of everyone's interest and anybody who contributes and becomes part of the 'community'.
Three weeks to go! Any idea when tickets will be available?
Have paid the contract for the theatre tonight, so should be later this week.
Hello all,
So as to whet your appetites, here's some blurb I wrote today for our sitcom 'In The Meantime':
The year is 1498. The Spanish have discovered America, and now the English are determined to discover it too. Unfortunately, no-one in the fleet knows exactly where this new continent is. Step forward the crew of the HMS Lillyliver, sent out of Portsmouth with strict instructions from His Majesty not to return without a cargo hold full of potatoes and baccy. With no idea which direction to sail - and with England's most expendable captain at the helm - it's going to be a long, long trip. This is the story of what happens to them In The Meantime...
Thanks Andy. Sounds good. I look forward to sharing a showcase with you.
For anyone who's interested, here's my updated one:
___
Will Buckingham wants to turn the Museum of Things into Brighton's best small visitor attraction and win the respect of his successful father. There are only three problems: misanthropic gift shop manager Rose, chronically lazy tour guide Jackson, and manipulative lothario Marcus who runs Brighton Aquarium.
Can Will ever win his father's acceptance? Or is he doomed to stay trapped with these idiots forever?
