No, course not. I just said that you did to make it sound more authentic.

You went to work anyway didn't you, you big girly swot?

I'm afraid I did, yes

Well, I suppose you do have a responsibility to support the Grunty pigs. I expect they wear out a lot of shoes, and Grunty pig care doesn't come cheap.

They can be a bit demanding, certainly ...

But, as a benevolent Rabbity ruler, I try to give them the best. Only this morning I made them eggs on toast - no bacon, obviously *shudder* - with muffins and syrup and a pot of coffee and some fresh fruit, then chucked it all in a cement mixer and turned it into swill.

They seem to prefer it that way.

And who can blame them?

I'm hungry now ...

Fortunately ... I bought the world's most chocolatey chocolate pudding this evening It's chocolate cake with some lumps of chocolate syrup covered with chocolate mousse, then some more chocolate, with some other bits of chocolate cake and some flakes of chocolate stuck in the top, all covered with chocolate.

Just the thing before you go to bed!

I had a yoghurt!

Oooh, shiney, new PS

Made up from the rotting carcase of a boring old PS, in fact

I'm still looking for a bit more pizzazz, but of a sort that doesn't involve lots of piccies making it unworkable for a dialup dino like myself.

It's very neat and orderly


Oooh, email address


So, being on dial up, does that make it a nightmare when you visit other's PS if they have lots of pictures too then? Guess it must.


You deserve medals for doing what you do in here with dial up *pins medal on Trin*

Oh, I don't know, I'm beginning to suspect that being on dial-up puts me at more or less the right speed for this place - all the complaints about the errors and glitches at the moment seem to come from broadbandies who are used to whizzing around.

Piccies don't slow it down that much - it's just I'm clicking up my page every few minutes, so I want it to whizz as much as possible

Neat and orderly? Yes I want it to be a bit more ... dazzly

Yeah, the server errors are a bit of a pain, but, just requires a few clickety clicks of refresherisation most of the time to solve it.

I just noticed on your PS that you get a kazillion things pop up every couple of minutes, must make refresherisation a bit of a nuisance with your page being quite long before you get to the conversation bits...would the conversation pop up thingy not help, assuming ofcourse you've not got it already? (Not scoured your page in great detail)

More dazzly? Dazzly is soooo last Wednesday daaahlink!

Conversation pop-up?



Try one of these (I've tailored it to your conversations list)

Special Chat Deluge Link

Hmmm - I've a feeling I've made that seem a little more exciting than it actually is

Oh, whispering...is it a secret?

I like it, you big smarty pants you

I find it very useful if I've been away for a bit (they've capped it at 400 threads now, it used to be infinite ... would go all the way back to your very first posting if you jiggled the number around).

I really should take some time to have a look at all those conversations I'd never noticed before

No, it's not a secret

It is, however, the only GuideML 'thing' I've ever made myself. And it's not terribly complicated at that, either.

I pretty much stole and copied most of my PS, such things like GuideML remind me of Maths*twitch*, specifically algebra*twitchtwitch* and frighten me.

Therefore, you being able to do that makes you a
