*throws streamers and balloons around the place*
YEY you
*hugs*

*assumes he knows she's talking about his degree*

It seems everywhere I look there's a message from you congratulating me.

I got a first you know.

Well I didn't know where you'd be...

*runs round in a circle throwing streamers at him*
But I can still be in more places, theres many forums left unposted in, I could start a whole new paperchase just with clues as to where to find some more

*grins*
A 1st? Cool... I had kinda assumed you had so that's pretty much what I've been telling people, oh that and that when you accept it you're going to sing a rendition of Kylie

I'm usually in most places. The first message I saw was actually from Amy and she only left one, so it didn't work properly anyway.

*attempts to disentangle self from streamers*
Just as well they don't have smilies of those.

I think I can manage enough champagne here.

It seems everyone else was far more confident that I'd get a first than I was.

*sulks*
But I left posts everywhere... EVERYWHERE!
*grins*
As you may have noticed

Paper streamer smilies? That'd get way too confusing and I'd ridiculously over use them

Is that all for you?
*takes a and hopes he doesn't notice if it was all his*
If you like I could modify my Schumi celebration song to fit your degree in? That or Cliff Richard's "Congratulations"?

Well no I waited until it said you'd got your degree and then told Mr T you had a 1st

Not on the spring onion page you didn't.

I think that was precisely my point about the streamers.

Nope, they're for anyone who turns up really. If they don't get drunk they'll go flat in those great wide glasses.

Just as well I did, then. He was already confused enough over that airbag business.

Oh but why did you go there first? I deliberately didn't congratulate you in there as I figured that you'd have to come to your home page first...

Oh I see, well that's why you have a degree

*laughs*
As I recall it was you who got confused, we knew what we were talking about

Well, I did, but I didn't see it there. The only reason I ever notice conversations on my page is because I've subscribed to it.

You deliberately confused me, so that doesn't count. Wasn't it Mr. T who got mixed up originally?

But it was right there? In the list of conversations... hummph

We didn't deliberately confuse you... I suspect Mr T assumed that you knew what we were talking about, it was only when I pointed out that you didn't that we started to deliberately confuse you. Besides it was fairly unsuccesful!

But yes, it was him who got confused first as I forget to consider that he wouldn't know I had a toy Bagpuss in my car

You did a very good impression of trying to confuse me. Mind you, I don't think the fact that all three of us were on line and adding to the conversation did much to clarify the situation.

I'm sure he could have guessed at that last point.
