Titania (gone for lunch) Started conversation Apr 19, 2001
Hmmmm.... now, what am I going to do next?
OK, let's repeat a statement that I've made in an other conversation, some time ago, and that was accepted by the moderator at the time:
Länge leve det svenska språket! [to Moderator: Long live the Swedish language!]
*sighs*
Let's just wait and see if it works this time, too...
*meanwhile, starts arranging a Smörgåsbord [to Moderator: probably known as smorgasbord] and, on a separate table, bottles of 
and 
- sorry, but that's the smiley closest to snaps I could think of...

Og det her er det tætteste vi kommer på Gammel Dansk: 
[Translation: There's already !? I thought I should bring it!
And this is the closest we get to Gammel Dansk: ]

...färska jordgubbar, vaniljglass, vispgrädde...
[wondering if the Moderator will be the same one as at the Danish conversation - anyway, here's yet another lesson in Scandinavian: ...fresh strawberries, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream...]

Posting no.7 was mine - I tried to add some more food to the - dare I use the expression spelt 'Englishwise'? - smorgasbord. Served with English translation, but that didn't work this time....*really confused by the inconsistency in moderation*

My posting has been awaiting moderation for 48 hrs now - was it really that upsetting?

Oh drat, Ottox - you were merely repeating other postings, weren't you?

Santragenius V Posted Jun 20, 2001
I don't think I should hold my breath until that posting comes back - judging by Titania's classicaL exampel with posting 7... (what nasty stuff did you write, Ottox - nothing about being tired of snow, I hope ?)
BTW, what on earth are you guys posting at 2 in the morning??? Must sorrily admit that I need my beauty sleep too much for that 
- and my alarm clock goes off at 0530... 
Anyway, I'll find a 
somewhere and have some of Titania's well served stuff for my second breakfast today

Well, you see Santra, anyone claiming to be h2g2-addicted knows there are some sacrifices you need to make... 'noblesse oblige' you know...

Ottox Posted Jun 20, 2001
Santra, read my journal. It took me *some* time to get there!
Here I wrote the nasty words "strawberries", "ice cream", and "cream" in - 
- *two* other languages (as well as in English)! I'm *such* a 
!
