BluesSlider, I'm particularly interested in the tuning Jimmy Page used in Kashmir (pardon spelling errors). I'm hopelessly addicted to open tunings.
Hi, Redbeard! Hi, Garius!

Hi Redbeard, Garius I don't know, you sit around for ages just sipping coffee then suddenly the place gets busy. Hope I haven't missed anyone in the general greeting .
IIEM, another double espresso please, before there's another rush

Hi, Bluebottle! Including Ook, there is certainly a very blue theme today!

Wow yes. I didn't think of that, I'm on a diet, but virtual food, I can eat as much of that as I like...

Once again proving that "diet" is the word "die" with a "t" on the end.
The letter "t" is a very nasty letter, you know. Is it a coincidence it's found in words such as "thief", "rapist", "assasinate" and in names such as "Hitler", "Attila The Hun" and "Fred West"?
Probably.
But what difference does that make?

C'mon Peta cheer up.
You can't be blue - you guys have gotten rid of the blues in favo(u)r of Alabaster.
Anyway, a shot of this will spice up your afternoon...

Hi Redbeard. No, no one has put up such a list. It would be a good suggestion for the host. And yes, they can get very convoluted and funny. Although we are on the seventeenth edition, each edition usually has several sentences, so we have done much more than 17 sentences. Go ahead and try it out.
Sorry about your blues, peta. You may want to try a Majik Tea. It's a specialty of the house, made with majic tea leaves grown in a secret grove out in the forest. It always cheers me up (although the company here may have something to do with that too.)

Aaarrrgghhh. Didn't realize I wasn't at the bottom of the thread when I replied to Redbeard. Sorry for apparently ignoring everyone inbetween.

Ox, I'm not sure about the tuning for Kashmir, but I might know a man who is. I will try and find out for you .

Well, we are all mad, but is there anything wrong with that?

I don't think they'll mind, Garius. It's Monday, and speaking can be a bit convoluted
Hi, Jimi.
Good luck with the speech, ox.

Hello everybody.
Gosh it seems like ages since I was last here. I am gagging for a coffee!
*pours a nice cuppa*
I'm feeling brave, I think I will challenge Ook to game of Scrabble.
How about it Ook.
*Ook* "Ook, Ook."

Was I the only one unable to H2G2 just now?

No! It was a general crash of some kind. Quick recovery.
I was just in the middle of posting to this thread when everything choked up
*checks IIEM and decides to change filters while she can*
Let's keep the IIEM going on autopilot for the time being, in case I have trouble getting back, because I am having a Day of Woe IRL and having h2g2 suddenly refuse to remember my existence was completely unnerving!
*gets self an A L Special* Peta, I recommend the apple spice donuts particularly.

I know what you mean Lil, being asked to register after all this time is spooky. It's happened to me a few times since the upgrade
