More candidates for the HALL OF FAME to follow over the weekend... I realize that this thread has created an unprecedented level of interest, but PLEASE I request you all to form an orderly queue, my PM inbox is literally jammed packed right now and the stress of it all is getting to me. :eek: But actually we have an interesting development...it is rumoured that a couple of legendary members are indeed close to making a comeback... WATCH THIS SPACE (no, seriously! I received a subliminal message)
