I know people have been posting in a few different threads when they have reached 10 000 words. Well done to all of you.

To make it easy for everyone to find the good news (we seem to have a very busy forum this year) here is a clearly labelled thread for shouting in delight when you reach that magical milestone. I suspect lots of us will get there this weekend.
