...do my forum entries keep disappearing off my page when I come back to it? And not just mine, other people's too. (Look! Tumbleweed!)

Hi(at last!) are we slow tonite or is it just me ? Sometimes your forum entries take a while to appear (probably cos there are so many!!!!)Haven't found out whats going on yet it's taken me nearly 50 minutes to post 4 words so far!!So much for the technology of the future , carrier pigeon would be quicker, Still nice to "see" you again

I've been finding download times slower generally since our last population explosion, even when there's supposedly only 30 people on (or zero sometimes!) When I first visted your homepage this evening, it told me you hadn't written any user pages or made any forum entries!
BTW I like your new homepage - go for the sympathy angle!

PS Did you get the pigeon I sent you earlier? It's the 'modern' self-plucking, stuffing and roasting type!
Sorry, tasteless (and probably humourless) joke.
Actually, I've been told they're quite tasty...

Actually I am a crusading vegetarian..naaa only kidding actually one of our cats brought in a bloody great (dead )pigeon the other day I hope it wasn't a messenger type!!The sympathy angle doesn't seem to be any more effective than last time , it only works on you !(you big softy!!)

Oh good, so you did get it then!! They have to be large to fit all the bio-technological stuff in!
Actually, I AM a vegetarian!!! Not crusading though!
And, well, I've been called lots of things.....
...but I'm far too polite to repeat them!
Sweet dreams!

PS 'Madness'???

Waxer Posted Oct 2, 1999
Oh yes you got the Subtle Madness clue!, that entry was mainly aimed at Uncle Sam as the song in question is called "Uncle Sam" clever eh! unfortunately not sure they know much about Madness(the group at least!) in America hence the barn sized clue!!

$u$ Posted Oct 2, 1999
Couldn't remember the title. Someone ought to get it though. In America, they're probably called "Raving Lunatics" or some 'bigger and better' version of madness!

Hey, shall we try and limit our chat to one place (I know we tried it before!!) when its not NTT stuff cos I'm spending every evening trying to keep up with all our various strands, also where we do lets start new conversations regularly cos the long ones take a long time to load when things are slow.
Why...
$u$ Posted Oct 2, 1999
Okay, you start a new page/strand on your home page for 'random chat' and I'll muzzle in on it later.
I really really really really really MUST fly!
In a while crocodile!
