coolness.
I've given up on the old comp, were due a new on this Saturday but until it arrives I am still off line (I'm in the library right now. )
hopefully I'll have broadband up and running this time next week but my track record of technology and funtionality is not good - I'll try and submit a new batch of story chapters to you in good time. if not we'll have to think emergency plans....

Good luck with all that - I too am cr*p at technology... TM says I'm too gadget crazy and download the most unsuitable things because I think they'll make using it easier!
There's no <./>ThePost</.> over Christmas, so the next one after 19th Dec is 9th January.

grand stuff. (incidentally - to match the overcast mornings and long periods of night - January will see the first chapter to introduce our new bad guy)
Be afraid....

merry christmas to everybody at the post.
back online at last!
on to business then I supoose.
can I ask three small favours?
I spotted a spelling mistake I'd missed in the second chapter of the story last week. er....4th paragraph...I've written "ban street" when it should be "barn street" I was mortified when i spotted that cos I thought I'd got all the spelling errors.
Could it be fixed please (plus it sort of ruins part of the ga - that the group have gone to the wrong house.)
Second, can I just make sure that everyone who contributed to this story get's credited for each of the chapters? I just saw no. 3, and I'm flattered if anyone thought I wrote this on my own, but I didn't. I'd be very grateful if evryone else could get their names added on.
and also just to save you guys the job - I wasn't intending the big red gothic lettering "and there will come a beast" to adorn the top of every page. it was only really meant for the first chapter.
Also it doesn't really make much sense when dramatically we are in a 'quiet bit' (but I promise when the pay off arives it's worth it. )
I hope you all have a very merry christmas - I'll get the next chapters over to your offices post haste.
Clive.

Just realised, I'm going to have re-send the first of those chapters...the spellcheker has miss-spelt 'Ouija'
(and this time it wasn't me! )

Hullo.
Can you just remind what was the last number of the chapter I sent you?
I've coded up some more but I can't remember which one to ship over to your first!

Yep - got them
I'd moved a folder in my Post files so the auto-response message refused to work - fixed it now though

I have a sneaky suspicion I forgot to spell-check them however (it was late! ) so if you find any glaring mistakes my apologies!

Just curious.
When may I have the Post Reporter badge I have craved for so long?

Post Team Posted Mar 19, 2003
Yep... 18 and 19 arrived
Badge? Hasn't it arrived? I guess Mina must have forgotten
I'll ask her again, although I think they are all up to their eyes with 'stuff' at the moment
In the meantime, you can always put the shield one on your home space somewhere
