Hi everyone!

[HelenM]

Hey, it's great to see this forum up and running! I hope that it develops into a fun, thriving community.

I can see you've been working on it for a while because the grass has got quite long

Anyway, I love the end result - great design, great features!

Helen

Helen! It's so nice to see you. Thank you for your kind words (except the thing about the grass; that was just uncalled for. )

See...everyone thinks I'm so nice, but I'm not really...

Anyway, how come you haven't been obsessively cutting the grass? I'm disappointed in you

Oh, wait - I get it. Long grass is evidently a detail which one must obsessively include as part of the decor. It's some artsy thingy.

Hey, I like the free popcorn When does the movie start?

Hello, dahling! Howsit going?



Ow! Shit. I was trying to ride too fast and talk to you at the same time. You'd think I'd a given that up at my age.

Anyway, I don't suppose you feel sorry enough for me to share your popcorn?

[HelenM]

Ouch!

Of course I'll share my popcorn with you

I saw a cyclist riding along and talking on a cell-phone last week - that looked hard enough, never mind typing on a laptop at the same time!

Is there such a term as smilie slutting? If not, I think we might just have to invent it.

[HelenM]

Unless I'm mistaken, you just did invent it.

However, I think you may be bordering on use-of-the-term-slut-slutting.

People might wonder whether my smily use is out of control, but I assure you I could abstain if I wanted to.

Really.

Hi Helen,

Welcome! Glad you didn't give up on us after all this time.

[HelenM]

I'm persistent - well, my husband calls it stubborn, I guess.

In fact I happened to click on the URL yesterday morning to see how the set up procedure was going, having not done so for a while. And I discovered that the opening was very imminent, which was a very exciting discovery.

I wonder what caused me to look yesterday. Any ideas? :headscrat

Hmmm...

[livius drusus]

Um, a troll made her look? Or is that a leprechaun?

Hey you picked 'em out and sorted 'em, and you don't know that's Yoda!?

Oh yeah! The [.sign] [./sign] vB code (minus the . ). Sometimes even I forget just how cool this forum is.

Thanks for the welcome livius. And yes, it ain't right, but variety is . . . hmm . . . well I can't remember what it is.

You too!

I think it'll be interesting to see how the community develops here, given the structure, which is different from what I've experienced elsewhere.

Luv ya!

p.s. your avatar looks very thoughtful

[Dingfod]

Hullo, ebberbuddy. Just peeking in to see what it's like. So far, so good.

Hi Warren. Nice to see you. I hope you put your feet up and stay a while.

[Dingfod]

Put my feet up? Have you read my opening journal entry yet? I'd say my feet are not only up, but my socks are dirty and holey.
