10 000th picture on PAPM - Time for celebration !

Dear members of PAPM,

I think it's high time for some statistics on the blog and on the group.

Since launching the blog in May, we have got to date, 42 followers, not a big figure but hey, we have 5308 visitors ! They are mostly from Mauritius, but PAPMers, your work have also been viewed by people in Australia, America, France, Germany, UK, Netherlands, Malaysia and even Indonesia, Japan, South Korea and Jordan !

Now let's move on to the group on Facebook.

Every day, people request to join and some are accepted, some are rejected. Today, on PAPM, we are 585 members. It might sound quite insignificant but hey, 585 people from Mauritius scattered over the world, reunited in one group with one common passion, with friendship as ties, that's a big achievement !

With 585 members that can post a maximum of 3 photos per day, we have been waiting eagerly for the moment the 10 000th picture would appear on PAPM. And here we are ! AVINASH SUSTY posted the  10 000th photo on the group this morning and we thought it called for some celebration. We are in the mood anyway with Christmas and New Year coming ! Congratulations to you Avinash for your wonderful pictures but also, for your  faithful presence among us, always posting pictures and sometimes even giving out tips to help people. We value your membership in PAPM.

After 3 years, 12 administrators and officers, 585 members and 10 000 pictures posted on the group, I think PAPM deserve a big clap for reuniting so many people of different horizons ! 

Toast for PAPM on Sunday's lunch !
