    20,000 posts?

    No, not the length of the world's longest fence.

    Who's going to reach it first (or has it already been achieved and I've not seen?)?.

    Anyone running a book?

    What will they be called?

    Any further questions?

    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.

    Ooooh, who knows!

    In other news:
    You inspired me to look it up, and it turns out that the world's longest fence is the Dingo Fence of Australia, which was built to keep the Dingoes out of the fertile south.
    At 2,500km and with a post every 9m it has around 277,000 posts.

    Perhaps the 20,000 post person could be called a "dingo"?...or not.

      I only know about that fence because I think it appeared in a film Rabbit Proof Fence. Some friends were talking about it years ago...

                20,000 posts, how many trees do you need to dig up for that then?

                Thank heavens they are only virtual posts, and virtual trees.
