    ^o^ Enjoy your bag of goodies... Martin (this must be something new, I have been a member since Dec 26, 2000 and have never received any goodies. It IS a good idea ;o))

    Thank you Dorisse. We had better let the powers that be know that you are waiting for your prizes Martin. Carole.

    I was thinking the same thing Martin. But my 12,5 year anniversary is coming up in sept. Then again I have collected alot of VT goodies already over the years. T-shirts, pins, pens, flip flops, notebook a beach towel.

    Hi Sue. I am sure that you will receive similar or same. There were stickers, a flag, a cap, t/shirt, flip flops, cards, haversack and a mouse pad.......all well received. Carole.

    Congratulations, Carole. And good for VT for recognizing your milestone. I have only been around for a little over 8 years, so am younger than most in this forum. Hahaha.

    Many congratulations. On a practical note, don't forget VT can only send you goodies of they have your address and I don't suppose they have that many. I know Dino had to VTmail me one time to get my address to send me something.

    Hey Carole, Congrats for your 10 years on VT..! I celebrated 10 years last August and was promised a box of goodies but I never got anything. Hehe I'm curious now as to what you got ;-)

    Dorrise, I doubt medium size would fit my huge feet! Shame really as I managed to lose my flip flops in an accident in the Philippines. Must get another pair.

    Congratulations! And to another 10 years! The goodies box must be something new. Or maybe they send it to members that cannot make it to one of the big meets.

    Yeah, I bet that Carole got the goodies for some other reason, like being a nice person...otherwise I would have gotten my box last December :-(...my mother always told me to be a nice person (sniff sniff)... Bill

    Well Fergy you're right about that. I knew something was coming because I was asked for my address. Carole.

    Andy, look back on the thread because Sue asked the question before you and I listed the items for her. Carole.

    Hello Sonja, I don't really know now but still think that it was because of my ten years. Anyway it was a lovely thing to do and I appreciate it very much. Carole.

    Hi All - Carole, so glad you liked the goodies! For others, don't worry! We're setting up a system so that we can get an alert for anniversaries. We saw Carole posted it was her 10 year anniversary in the forum a couple of weeks ago so we sent her some stuff. Martin, I'll send you an email. We definitely want you to have some goodies too! If you have an anniversary coming up, please post in the forum! Right now, our system doesn't track that so until it can, we need to rely on you to tell us :) Hope you don't mind, and if you nudge us about your anniversary, we'll send you some fun stuff too!

    Me thinks that those who ask for goodies will get goodies . But VT will need to hear from you and have your snail mail address. Hansi
