    I joined an office as a tea boy - the next day I was moved up
    to photo copier attendant.

    Just finished a game with a quick(ish) promotion. That got me wondering.

    Sorry Greenpawn.
    Just making a cheap joke to see if I uploaded my avatar correctly.
    It's not a good one, just something I threw together with paint.

    Back to the original thread.

    I cannot recall any quick 'pawn' promotions from my games.

    I found this horror of horrors.

    It's a promotion in 5 moves from an actual game.
