I don't quite get that part myself. The bit about kettles of tea and coffee, that is.

Hello there!
Sounds freaky - make mine ether. Beware this is a complete technophobe speaking from the depths of fear and trepidation. Reassurance required that message received and hot beverages forthcoming.
Bye for now - Star (terrible name I know).

* HE wanders in looking for his mug alarmingly marked HIS!!! *
Oh...hello er, you, you & er... you.
* Inter-Stellar travel can catch up with even the most exaultant of immortals... *
* HE then goes on to mumble something incoherently about Angels...best guess *

* Then goes on to growl something about a New User's Guide, presumably HE means this... *

* Although, they are probably best guesses at best... *

*raises hand timidly*
Er, 'scuse me, Mr GOD... I thought you were supposed to be all-knowing, omnipresent and infallible?

He'd better be... aren't there laws against that sort of thing?

ZOE ya round

GOD Posted Jul 14, 2000
* HE turns to address the pot-plant... *
* ...Alright. I suppose as GOD's Official Narrator I should stick up for his Majesticness... Suppose you travel billions of miles across deep space, no inflight catering, no inflight movie, not even the rinky-dinky little earphones that always get stuck on the Country & Western Station, perpetually looping Willy Nelson... *
* I mean, you may skirm when your neighbour decides Shania Twain's Come On Over is still the bees-knees after 15 consecutive weeks, but if you had to deal with one bit of mat black space, upon another, upon another. You had better pack more than a trusty copy of travel scrabble... *

You see he is not the real G*D - he is now claiming to be his offical narrator!
Stop trying to kid the people!

St.Peter - I'll think you find that anything said inbetween * these * is the sole domain of the Narrator...
Who has infact gone off in a huff...

GOD Posted Jul 14, 2000
* HE gradually starts to gather his thoughts together & starts fumbling around inside the sink cupboard for his 'emergency supply'... *
Huzzah !!!
* HE couldn't be any happier if the 'infernal' one took a course in 'Anger Management 101'... *
So how is Shim these days ???
...er, not that I don't know of course
* Paranoia can be fickle Mistress, especially when her name rhymes with 'gabby'...not that is mere coincidence *
I suggest you leave MY Official Narrator alone !!!
* HE, quite wonderfully I might add, thinks up a 'slighty'- devilish plan to get Abi & E.V back. The ponders that flattery is nearly always the best way to keep one under one's thumb... *
I would create a miracle right here & now, but unfortunately the said miracle entailed rather changing both Abi & E.V into truly wonderful caring individuals !!!
* One might discern a slight grimace on his face... *
But, I see they are already such fine individuals !!!
* HE thinks 'Now they are succoured into compliance, unless they want to break the morae's of polite society, that is...' *

I can vouch for that, I've only been here a few hours and already Abi's been nice and fluffy to me.

... Oh how little you know Harry
But Welcome to our humble little Universe !!!
It's just a shame GOD appears to have wandered off somewhere... but I know you will definitely meet up in the future...
How are you enjoying things ?
Or is 'enjoying' the wrong word for it...
