Awesome, Statman!

[PaulTheSoave]

Thats why you were late on the board. BTW, its 2 weeks early!

In january I'll visit the Turner Gallery and hand this over as their new asset!

[Mitsuko]

Wow, you truly are a master of ASCII

Do not put my name on the label. It is not mine. I have just had it emailed to me.

[austrian_girl]

Statman, this is class! Absolutely brilliant!

[Nina]

This is amazing. Beautiful piece of work!

Early for Christmas? Maybe... But not for the Christmas shopping as it turns out (although we Greeks are kind of last-minute people... )

And never too early to get in a festive mood,
Merry Christmas everyone!

[Ellena]

Christmas knockin on our doors! I love Christmas holidays , my favorite time of year!
Stat, that is amazing ! Lods of imagination , time and patience i'd say put in it!

[kellie-text]

Oh My God Statman!

Merry Christmas everyone. I'm a abit humbug at the mo but this thread made me laugh! Maybe a mince pie and a cracker will get me in the christmas spirit!

[Miss_S]

Really impressive, I must say (even if Stat didn't make it )
Though I haven't really had much time to think about it lately, I'll say:
Merry Christmas!

[Valderie]

Statters you never cease to amaze me! (even if you didn't make it yourself)
I love Christmas so hope everyone has a happy one.

[Curtis]

very cool!

I just started my Christmas shopping on Saturday - I believe that is the earliest start I have ever had!

[Miss_S]

very cool!

I just started my Christmas shopping on Saturday - I believe that is the earliest start I have ever had!

I've also started earlier this year than any other year. I was ordering gifts on the internet in Novenber
(ok, I was shopping on the internet instead of studying for exams... )

[The Statman]

very cool!

I just started my Christmas shopping on Saturday - I believe that is the earliest start I have ever had!

Being in Canada, you have a few hours more than we do!

[missneworleans]

Yes, Merry Christmas everyone!!!
