AND THE WINNER IS....PAPABEAR! Please claim your prize!

Thanks everyone, it's been a nice way to celebrate my 1K posts.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my post no. 1,000!
Christmas is quickly approaching and we just left Thanksgiving behind, so I feel like it is time for another giveaway (if you all agree image )

Once again, let me thank every and each one of you for what you thought me during the past year and a half. image

CaptHenway just celebrated his 10K posts (btw he hasn’t chosen the title yet), I wish I could have contributed for 1/10 of what he did (or many others like him). Well, that’s not the case but I hope that at least few of my posts were of your interest.

The prize for the giveaway are 2 nice “1966 Lire 500” coins (each containing 0.2953 troy ounces of silver). This way, I hope to share part of our history and art.

As I did last time, I will randomly select the winner but , to make it more fun, I request that you use at least one Italian word in your post.

One post per person until Thursday night Dec.2nd at 22:00 eastern time.

    The back of my property runs along Bella Terra Rd. Alot of people with the last name Strozzo lives on it, they're supposed to be from Italian decent.

    Congrats on 1K!

    Grazie per la probabilità vincere. Sono tre quarti di maltese italiano ed un quarto. Non parlo una parola di italiano che è triste. I miei grandparents hanno desiderato tutto imparare e parlare l'inglese quando sono venuto sopra in modo da il mio mom ha imparato soltanto alcune parole.

    Godo i vostri alberini. Buon Natale e nuovo anno felice voi ed alla vostra famiglia.

    Sì, ho truffato ed utilizzato un traduttore in linea per fare questo alberino. Lascilo sapere se traducesse bene il mio alberino.

    Non vinco mai questi giveaways in modo da ho pensato che fosse divertimento per provare questo.

    Grazie,

    Ciao.... not sure if it's spelled that way. But the last time I was in Italy, every one used it for their greeting.

    Thanks Bochiman for the correct spelling.
