Just in case you're not on the Lamma-zine email subscriber list (all registered forum members get it emailed to their registered email address), here's part of the last intro of this biweekly email to 3,600+ active email addresses. Email me to be added (strict no spam policy). Dear Lamma-zine reader, Seven years of Lamma.com.hk, anniversary on July 23, so hard to believe! What started as only a little forum for the residents has miraculously grown into this website with 4.5+ million hits/month, #1 in Google & Yahoo for all things Lamma-related. If you've ever helped, supported or contributed in any way to the fine success of this Lamma community effort, let me thank you here personally and from the bottom of my heart. I've published just above 2,000 Lamma-zine stories from so many writers, artists and photographers in the last 7 years and I've just posted my own 5,000th message in the forums the other day. My little hobby, my labour of love has truly grown up now and gotten almost too big to handle for what is basically still a (grossly underpaid) full-time one-man band... Hey, any good ideas on how to celebrate this anniversary would be most appreciated! Your (positive or negative) emails to the editor about 7 years of Lamma.com.hk will be published on July 23. Please email me! |

7 years anniversary of this website today... and not a single feedback to my forum message above. {*Big SIGH!*} This probably means almost nobody really gives a damn, besides myself? Well, at least there'll be a little live interview about this anniversary on Radio 3 of RTHK tomorrow morning.... |

{L_QUOTE}: is basically still a (grossly underpaid) full-time one-man band
At least you can say your not grossly overweight anymore. |

Yeah, being grossly under-paid and grossly under-appreciated already, I'm now trying to become grossly under-weight as well. I seem to be a real under-achiever.... Sorry, still aching from my latest T.R.X. Pilates session this morning. Doing exercise every single day nowadays to lose my last few pounds never seems to give my sore muscles time to recover fully.... |

<img src="http://www.compunicate.com/Lamma-zine/Blog/2009-07/!DSC05539.jpg" border=1 align=right hborder=8>Hahaha, that's the first time I've been called a lighthouse! You mean my head is big, shiny & round and it rotates 360 degrees on my shoulders? And we already have a Lamma Lighthouse, well, kind of, a small outlook tower at the far end of Cable Road #1 in Pak Kok Shan. My favourite feedback to the anniversary came from Dawn of the Dragon Ladies: "Absolutely fair to say that without your dedication Lamma-zine would never have made 7 years. It's a fantastic site, you are vastly under-appreciated for what you do and deserve many many big thank-yous from all us Lammaites. "The Lamma-zine is a great site, used internationally (my folks and friends back home use it to keep track of me and the rest of the dragonboat girls) and it has that fine Lamma uniqueness about it - quirky, laidback, creative, inclusive and just goes with the Lamma flow. Keep up the great work and I hope you keep cajoling, begging, insisting and coercing us ungrateful slops into contributing to the 'zine. "A huge thank you from me for all hard-work and keeping this going for so long! It's a great achievement of which you can quite rightly be hugely proud of. "Thank you, Dawn." |
