Looking like this milestone should be reached in the next day or two

Oh you've noticed!
I was planning on keeping a careful watch so that I could get the magic post.

[PS I was going to claim the quarter million - sounds a bit grander]

[Carl Hibbard]

I was watching the database size behind the scenes at 499.99 MiB as that is more of interest.

Good opportunity to again thank Carl for all his hard work

Hopefully Roger will do post 250,000

"Hopefully Roger will do post 250,000"

He's probably hoping to do that on his own!

I think this is post 249983... (so 17 to go).

[Simon Rogers]

Thanks Carl and Jack. You both do a great job.
I hope it's not me that does the quarter of million post because my next four posts will sadly all be New Topics on Deaths and Obituaries. Three from the South East of England and one from the West Midlands.
Although I have also some updates on the Obscure International OTB Events Going Ahead to post.

We have a winner. Post number 250,000 was:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10834&p=256351#p256351

From Simon Rogers.

I'll have a look at some other websites that I know.
It's not over.
There is always hope.

This was posted just before but at the same timestamp (3:38 pm) as this post by Justin Horton:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11286&p=256352#p256352

That would be a better winner!
