Oh!

You got a licence for that bag, Mrs B?

*Checks rules and regs again*

Unlicensed bag ... oo! Death by ...

Apparently, you can devise your own fatal punishment for that one.

Doesn't matter, you don't seem to have put the brick into your handbag today.

I was going to do a a couple of hours earlier, but the man at Pcychy Mrs B connector, he say no.

Before I forget, let me tell you about the odd dream I've just woken up from.

There was a caravan at the bottom of the drive, one from the seventies. A man came around to look at it who happened to be a vampire. Lots of "Aaaahh, caravan" and "Aaaahh, decent sized wheels" were said, until he began to freak me out and I threatened him with a can of gone off sardines.

Your lights were on earlier, so I tried to contact you via the Footbacontranspsychometer, seems Count Caravanacula infiltrated the signal. He's like that. I trust the sardines did the job?

Oooh phut! Your lights have gone off again!

Right, I'll try again

Hey! Hey! Oo! Ah!

I think the mega-long convo lists have come back with this morning's update shenanigans!

I discovered this ... actually, I've just forgotten how I discovered this

I put the servers to the test slightly when I put a "show=2000" code into the web address.

You can almost hear them groan, can't you?

(As with this morning, every time they make an announcement that there's urgent upgrades on the way because of undue overload on the servers ... I always think it's me And then start thinking of ways to blame it on you )

s'not my fault, if the servers hadn't broken down I would have never thought of attempting to break them...err, of playing this game.

Oo, hang on, I think I've just found an upper limit ... I tried going back ten thousand and it wasn't happy

Oooh! *Attempts 10,000*

*Crash!*

*Bang!*



Wasn't me.

*Shoves hands in pockets*

*Kicks floor*

*Points*

He made me do it.

Hang on...It's done it!

Ah - I don't have 10,000.

That'll be it then

Yes! I beat Trin on the postings mark!



It works on yours too. Maybe it doesn't like you.

I think I got all the way back to my first postings (my ACE's welcome was there) ... the bulk of mine are all from after subscribing to Ask, PR, Misc Chat, Update Forum, Flea Market *deep breath* How Do I?, Technical Feedback, Flant Forum, WW, AWW, WWF *deep breath*, Squirrel Update Daily, Editorial Feedback, Whose Ankles Are These?, The h2g2 Pigeon Fanciers ...

I went a bit subscription bonkers some time last year

I noticed quite a few that you were subscribed to but hadn't posted.

I found my first post. An Izzard one, naturally.

I think I wrote a limerick

And I remember sitting in a taxi, waiting for someone to talk to ...

Was that here or is it a random memory from RL?
