Whatever you do, don't ask an overenthusiastic newbie for an interview (I redirect you to the 20 minutes of me talking nonstop about nonsense 4 years ago for the 7th Annoversary)

Cat,
you could always do another interview this time reminiscenscing (hell, how do you write this? ) about your first interview

/off-topic reminiscing The verb to reminisce is a back-formation from reminiscence. A particularly odd-looking word.

"Back formation"?
Don't you just love it, guys, when sophisticated European women are prepared to discuss football?
Seriously, if you can get past what passed for late 1970s music video making, Australian group Little River Band's Reminiscing is actually quite a nice song.

I like the eleven-words idea! Simple and fun!
But I can see that might make a short podcast if that's all there is
Maybe start with a lot of the 11-words bits, then in the middle do the news items (stats for the year, new developments like the telephone project, introduce the 2 new admins, etc), and then go back to another bunch of 11-word bits to finish it up.
(Now to get busy coming up with some idea for my brilliant 11-word contribution.....)

Don't you just love it, gals, when football borrows expressions from lexicography? I didn't think most footballers could read...
I already have my eleven words. Woe betide anyone who uses any of mine!

Whatever is decided it looks as though folks (at least a few) are interested in the 11th Anniversary. Is there a time line on when the podcast needs to be done, or whatever the result might be?

Well, we have a modicum of buy-in for this concept. I think, however, a somewhat wider interest might be advisable for it to proceed. I'll think about it for another fortnight and make a go/no-go decision then.

Don't be too discouraged by the lack of actual replies. A lot of people have read the thread, and when you come to ask for contributions, you may be pleasantly surprised at the response.
