Thank you all very much for doing your lists - 49 is the biggest total for several years, and thanks also to the kind mod who pinned this thread :-)

I'll start work on it this evening and hopefully finish up this weekend, so that gives you until 8pm today (1st January) if you want to tweak anything or sneak in a late submission....

Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to put these together. I pinned it as I think it's important that mods do all they can to promote these kinds of initiatives, they bring the community together in the best way, and if members can be bothered to take the time to create these threads, then mods should raise their visibility where possible.

Looking forward to the results.
