G’day! Byron the Quokka here, coming to you from Rottnest Island.
We need some cheering up around here, don’t you think? How about another comment contest? Phoebe suggested one yesterday, and we quokkas are already talking about it around the Clue board.
We have less than a thousand comments to go to reach 85,000, which ought to be a milestone… and I have all these cool T-shirts that say “If they have to kill us, they’ve lost.” Plus books. Lots and lots of books. Prizes galore. We might even hand out plastic army men!
So okay: I hereby announce the new comment contest, with the finish line at 85,000.
Let’s see how fast our readers can get there!
[Personal to Joshua: Yes, I know I’m late. I’ll try to get your prize shipped next week. Thanks for your patience.]
Great idea. Love to keep our friend Byron busy. Hope we can be busy too.
What, no bicycle?? (Just joking.) Okay, I’m flexing my typing fingers, rarin’ to go!
Yes, let’s have another contest! Sorry for my absence. I’ll try to comment more often.
I haven’t forgotten that I owe you a book. Circumstances have kept me from the post office (I’m sure you understand).
No hurry on the book, sir! I understand. I was hoping that, if possible, the book would be addressed to Jeremy, since it was his request that won the contest (but his comment disappeared, so I commented for him instead when he was sleeping).
I’ll be sure to do that–if I can remember it.
Thank you very much! 😊
