How Far Back Can We Go? Sixth Edition! Ended At 1380 Waiting On 1379

(had to go with the rimshot as we don't have a smacking hand on own forehead emoji)

yeah, I thought about it, but that hurts - in retrospect I should have used this:

A fine choice. But. Wait! That would hurt me!


I have to assume it is not family friendly then.

Meanwhile, the wait continues.

No movement with the AH 773 coin. It's still sitting in Sydney according to the tracking.
Touch and go..... when the coin does eventually move, it will take around 5 days to get to my town in rural S.A.

With all the slackoff, and assuming no artificial speedup (I hope...), there are currently at least eleven days remaining before the 7th edition gets to 1373 and things get complicated.

This means that the 1372 being posted here before that happens is probably more likely than not, and that we'll probably see a final race between the editions in early-to-mid August, before the 8th edition finally starts around August 15th (maybe a day or two earlier or, less likely, later).

All very interesting.
I was out of the house yesterday for the morning. In that time I missed the postman, who left two "You Have Mail" cards in my letterbox.
So I have two "International registered" items to collect in town sometime today. I have quite a number of arriving items in the mail system coming from India, Canada, Portugal and Estonia. Perhaps one this morning is the fabled 1372 C.E. / AH 773. But then again, tracking suggests that it is still in Sydney, some 1700 km's away. Time will tell.
