cointreau & port - in the same glass

* sips Smirnoff Ice *

I dont have to go to Brum in the am - I have a meeting down here instead

No of course not. What kind of peasant do you think I am? Of course I own more than one glass so I can keep my drinkies separate. For heavens sake I've been into literally hundreds of pubs in my lifetime, and I have a souvenir glass from most of them

Well they were left by a friend! Why just collect glasses if you can collect drinks!

How are you this Friday?

Sorry! How are you this Saturday?

Not so good. I've been feeling under the weather for a couple of days. No real energy to do any work or post here much. My attempts at writing an ACE intro have hit a brick wall. All I have done is make a tentative step at writing a links page. Well not so much written, more boosted the one that Shea wrote, to which I will add my own stuff.

I made the major mistake of going into town this afternoon. Of course being only a month to Christmas, the crowds are building nicely I didn't buy anything as I couldn't face the stress of dealing with all those people. I've now made myself a nice cup of and have calmed down some what.

And how has your day been?

oh and I finally folded my first successful crane

Sorry you have been feeling bad. I have had a bad cold too.

Would you like some with your ?

Dont panic too much about an ACE intro - the key, I gather is to be yourself and to try and say something that shows you have read the other persons space. You are welcome to look at mine if you like. I point them at the welcome page and the Posts list of links. Oh and giving a clue about the is considered good too. I tend to also give a few navigation tips too. What has surprised me is now few people answer. I tend to go back and check on them when I have time. My ACE messages are all titled Hello and Welcome and then the researchers name.

I have not even started to think about Christmas yet its still November for goodness sake!

I am interested to know what you have folded a crane into - they are so large and never looked that easy to fold to me - all that metal!

Oh My day?

Got up, went for a haircut (near where I used to work - I used to go on my lunch breaks). Yes I really did drive for an hour to get to the hairdresser

Then I called into see a friend and then to a little cheese shop which would make Gosho very jealous - so much choice even of goats and sheeps cheese

The my neigbour came round for a cup of . Then my mother called

Tonight I am meeting friends for a few drinks but I am driving so I will have to be well behaved ...

Yes I know its only November, but haven't you spotted the christmas crackers that have been taking over the supermarket shelves for the last 6 weeks or so?

Driving an hour to get your haircut? That is a bit strange. Unless of course you were going for the company and friendship of the hairdresser as the real motive.

I've seen your ACE intro several times, and I've copied that and several others. To be honest I'm not in the slightest bit surprised that most new researchers never come back and say anything. If you think that the number of registered researchers is now pushing 92,000 yet I doubt whether I see more than a couple of hundred names out there on a regular basis.

Well he is a good hairdresser!

I hate the way the Christmas stuff has been in the shops for so long - I am so not ready to think about it!

I guess you are right! I always worry that maybe my introduction was not good enough. It also surprises me the number of people who dont bother to activate their spaces even - we cant even welcome them

What do you have planned for this eveining?

Nothing planned for the evening as I don't really want to go out. I expect I'll probably be hanging around here for most of it.

I am not really in the mood to go out either But I should. Hope to catch up with you here later

Have fun

If you're going out shouldn't you be getting ready? I mean it takes time what with you being a girl and all that.

GD's evil twin brother walks in and steals all the and

and then his cousin turns up to raid the fridge








.... and

Guess who has just discovered the piece of paper with all his passwords and stuff written on it

The really bizarre bit is the "who's online" list is showing all three of me at the moment. I guess it doesn't get updated that often or something like that.

Looks like you have been having more fun here that I had!

Nice to meet you all

* note to self - bring more and *

* notes that GD's twin likes where GD does not so she will be able to tell them apart *

Drink anyone?

Yes. Yes. Yes and for me please

And what do each of you like to drink?

All of it please

And how was your evening? I've spent a productive time bothering Parrferris and Gosho. Plus I've discovered stupidgirl is back on site, which is nice. All this fun and games has pushed me into the top 10 again, but obviously way below your exalted levels
