Well, I'd like to reciprocate by thanking Jeff for a great 5 years, which is about how long I've been frequenting the site.

Much more information is available on Heuers now, and from a larger number of sources than ever before, and still quite a lot of it has come from contributions here. And yet more of it from contributors here, even when not on OTD directly. And what keeps it interesting is that we're not done - there's more to come from the story of Heuer; I know of a couple of things Jeff has planned for the site, but he has always got stuff up his sleeves (dogtooth or otherwise) to surprise us as well.

And we always seem to have new people coming in. I hope they feel welcomed to the community and able to ask questions freely - this has never been the sort of forum to look down on "newbies". And thanks to existing and long-standing contributors too; someone like Ron, who has recently asked a number of questions on 60s Carreras, which I have enjoyed answering as best I can and flagged up some things I didn't know I didn't know as well!

I think it would be great if we can keep pushing the boundaries of our Heuer knowledge forward, but always have the surprise waiting out there as well - once I "know it all", it will be far less interesting, so let's hope we never get there!

And I look forward to putting many more faces to names come December, at Arno's auction. Did I say yet that all his Carreras are horrible fakes made from Mozartkügeln wrappers and you shouldn't bid on them under any circumstances? (Just kidding, of course, thought it might be worth a go at clearing some of the competition :) ).
