Well, I'm off. I start my new job this week, so I'm about to move up to Sidmouth. I'm telling people in Dartmouth and Paignton that I'm moving to the Far East! It seems very strange; it's only about 30 miles away as the crow (or the seagull) flies, but I can't swim that well and it's nearer to twice that by road. That means that for someone like myself who relies on public transport I might as well be relocating to the moon.
As my new flat isn't ready yet, I'm going to be in temporary digs to start off with. I don't mind that, the company's paying for B&B and Evening Meal so I won't have to bother feeding myself! Unfortunately, though, it does mean that I will be offline until I'm able to transport my sparse collection of wordly goods up to my new pad. I'll be on the lookout for a reasonable Internet Cafe, of course, and I will be popping back to civilisation when time allows. In the meantime, though, I'm afraid you'll have to do with a drought of my fabled wit and wisdom.

Oh yes.
In fact, there are a couple of nice ones made in that part of the world.

It's good to know that the f'orn parts have prepared for the arrival of PF by having a heritage steeped in

I think the concept of PF not enjoying scrumpy is unthinkable and indeed impossible

This is true! And it's a good substitute for the internet ...

How much longer before you can get back online with any frequency Parrfers? We all miss you terribly

It could be a while yet, I'm afraid. Until I can move into my new flat I'm living out of a suitcase, so there's no chance of getting access. There doesn't even seem to be an internet cafe in Sidmouth.

What kind of barbaric, back-woodsy, uncivilized place have you moved to?! (and 
how are you managing to get online at all?)

Shea the Sarcastic Posted Jul 12, 2004
Living out of a suitcase? That must be a big suitcase! Or are you just all hunched over in a regular sized one?

I've found somewhere I can get access now, about 30 seconds walk from where I work!
I haven't used it yet, though.
