Hmm, yes... a locked room... maybe we ought to go back and watch every single Jonathon Creek to give us some ideas...

wears mine as well. *frown*

¦M¦

Um... I pretty much already have. Does that make me look pathetic? () In my defence, though, I can't remember the half of them.

I didn't know you wore glasses! Now that's only gone and thrown my mental image of you completely, hasn't it? That said, I actually have no clue whatsoever as to what you look like. So that's not such a great loss, after all. At least I know something now!

Rgrds,

/

You've seen them all?? I'm jealous! *sulks*
And if that makes you look pathetic, it makes me look pathetic too... ah well.

Oh, sorry about that. I've had glasses for years... ever since year 6, in fact, so I've had the blasted things for seven years now. That's two years short of half my lifetime.
And I'm going to be 20 next year!

¦M¦

I am sooo very impressed that this conversation is still going on!

If it helps, I'll be 20 next year too. And I wear glasses! So ha!

Dammit, so do/are you. Thus I hsve lost my advantage. Come to think of it...so does Thom! Wow. Small world.

(Thom: why am i not on your friends list boyo? - note the use of the word "boyo" as a lewd and cutting insult. )

Well, not only am I going to be twenty next year, but I wear glasses, am male, and have possibly the most prominent Roman Nose you'll ever see . So there!

Honestly, I sort of exaggerated that I had seen EVERY Johnathan Creek episode. I just used to watch them when they were on TV and I could be bothered with it. SO: perhaps that makes me a /little/ less pathetic, but it does make me a whole lot more of a liar...

By the way, something to shock and confuse you all: another Helsby High School-er has returned to her H2 name after a long absence. That's the shocking bit, you can relax now. The confusing bit is that she's also called Liz. But this one's Liz Ford. She's got a really cool screen name, but I've forgotten what it is already. Anyhoo, if you see her before I do... tell her I said 'hey!'

HD

Helloooo! T'is me - Liz Ford. According to Thom, I know a lot of you. So..... would that make Elbow Yangle Liz Yelland?? And who else do I know???

It's really weird actually, being back after so long. Better point out though - it's now "X-Helsby High School-er". Now that's scarey. I signed up to H2G2 before I even joined HHS, and now we've left!

Oooo - and since it seems to be the subject of the moment - I wear glasses too.

Liz

For the purposes of explaining myself to Liz (Yelland, not Ford... this is going to be confusing, isn't it?) please note the following:-

I'm a lazy person. Terminally so. Some days I wake up and consider it an achievement. In fact I have perfected the art of spontaneous dozing, a skill one rarely masters in his/her youth (that was me being PC, incidently). As it happens I have already succeeded in going to sleep and waking seven times while writing this much. I actually started writing it three days ago, then woke up and realised I hadn't started yet. Last week I spent idly dozing, day and night, and considered it a good lie-in.

The point is this: I'm a very busy man. What with all the sleeping and eating, I get barely half an hour a day to lounge about, and I therefore have not got time to fiddle-faddle with anything constructive like - as for example - construct my H2G2 Friends List. Ergo, it has not been done. Ergo, Miss Yelland is not on it. Nor is anyone else, but I don't see them complaining.

I think The Marx Brothers deserve a tribute for that little outburst. Groucho is the man.

And while we're on the subject... actually, this is totally unrelated, but I had to tie it in somehow... does anybody else think that there is perhaps a direct correlation between H2G2 users, and people who wear glasses and expect to turn twenty next year? Answers on a postcard, please.

Thom

Thankyou Master Smooth for that. It had not struck me that you were, in fact, so busy. In fact at the last band practise youonly dozed off twice, so I had naturally assumed that you were cutting your work load. Obviously was worng, and I am sorry for it. Not bcasue I feel I should be sorry, but I just don't like being wrong. Also why is it Mr. Smooth, that you therefore had time to write that whole passage, which was no less then 15 lines, 264 words long?!
Also, everyone else doesn't need to complain because I am the voice of the people (though which people is debatable!)
Vicky is a h2g2 user, is turning 20 next year but doesn't wear glasses. Hmmm...one out of two isn't bad!


And Liz! Hello there. Yes it is I, the other Liz (should I start calling myself Elbow for the sake of non-confusion?) Its great to have you back!

Good luck to all in forthcoming evil long writing things.
Elbow

Thank you for remembering me Liz

Can I still post here if I don't wear glasses?

(and hello, Liz Ford - nice to see you here)

Yes, becasue you were sunglasses in the dark! And how could I ever forget you Vicky? You are the purple splodge on the white canvas of my life!

Also hi Miss. Ming, hows things? Sorry, I seem to have run wild on your thread again! Hope you is ok, and exams are going well!

Hi Vicky and Liz! Nice to see you here. No need to call yourself Elbow, Liz - confusion is so much more fun.

And I may wear glasses but I'm only 19 next year.

Yay! Its always fun to confuse people!

Oh well, your half way there, which, as we all know, is much better than being near the beginning!

Liz xx

Hello, Vicky! Nice to see you... or read you, at any rate. Sunglasses in the dark, huh? That's very silly.

Liz (Y)/Elbow, I thought I had explained, but I probably dreamt it: I wrote that long entry in my sleep! See? All logical and above board.

By the way: just 'cos you all love confusion so much, my name is now also Liz. Let's see you get round this one!

Rgrds,
Liz

can I just stress that I don't wear sunglasses in the dark. See-that would be silly. No, I sit on the field with Pete on a not-particularly sunny day wearing sunglasses. Cos we're cool and stuff

hiya Thom!

See? Clever Vicky has immediatly seen through your clever disguse Thom. It would have taken me a couple of days I'll wager. You are in fact faux liz! Hahahahahahahaaaa...

And stop trying to be clever! Have I used the word "clever" to many times?

Liz (Authentic) xxx

Hello, uh, everybody. I've lost track of all the people.

*Has finished his exams at last.*

Yay! Well done! Me too!

*Dances around with streamers and balloons!*

Liz xx

Um, I'm back. Again. But my absence this time was considerably longer than many of my absences in the past, to the extent that Hotmail gave up on me and turned my e-mail address off! Sorry, everybody, it wasn't through deliberate neglect, more a post examination collapse.

But, that said, I return to find that one of my convos has been dead for five weeks (this one), and the others haven't been touched since I last passed through in early July, so I guess this post-examination collapse is a common ailment.

Unless, of course, you're all blanking me because I did something stupid, or because you're tired off my constant wonderings in and out.

Or something has happened that is so unspeakable you deem a return to my merry conversation an act of bad taste. I dread to think.

It remains, therefore, for me to keep talking even though I have the distinct impression that no-one is talking to me.

So I'm probably wasting my breath here.

Hello, Prof. Tonks, it's good to see you back.

Or at least, it was five weeks ago

Appologies are due, I think, to Vicky and Liz (F) in particular, as no sooner had you arrived when I had apparently gone. It was not because of your arrival, of course: I am extremely glad you are here.

Or at least, I'm glad you were here five weeks ago.

Good luck with the exam results, everybody.

I hope you receive that luck before Thursday.

It's getting chilly in here.


Thom


P.S: I dig the rainbow smileys.

hello, i hate to interrupt your conversation, i just wanted to finish the saying with ...but satisfaction brought it back. that said, i can leave you now.
nice to leave a message with you and very cool matrix mumbo jumbo, thanx for the chat.
