Hi Lilium, hi Ken -

Have you been watching the Olympics?

I have enjoyed the swimming and gymnastics, and also the women's marathon was interesting to watch.

[GlobalNomad1960]

I saw your marathon countdown calendar. I love running, but have yet to do the "Big One." So, I wish you all the best!

Run the race,

GlobalNomad:clap:

I can understand how you feel, my car wouldn't start a little while ago for about a week and I felt kind of trapped in the house without it :(

I'm glad that you're ok, though.

[TomUK]

I'm having to give up my car. It's costing me far too much though so perhaps it's a good thing.

[RedneckAnglican]

I work for a courier service...I kinda need my truck...although it's running really rough right now...I think I got some bad gas somewhere...

[Sonfest Rocker]

Ouch. In my view cheap cars are the best ones, though perhaps that's just because i'm a bit of a Scrooge...

Hello!

Haven't been in here for a bit!

How y'all?

*cracks open door*

[in American midwest accent]: hi everyone

[TomUK]

Howdy partner. How ya'll doing brother? Gonna grab me a brewster and sit on this 'ere stoop.

*tom hangs his head in shame at this attempt at an american midwest (whatever midwest is) accent*

[Zoness]

*tom hangs his head in shame at this attempt at an american midwest (whatever midwest is) accent*

Well thats why I said Midwest, because the Midwest actually doesn't have an accent its pretty flat spoken english which is why pretty much every news broadcast in the country, regardless of location, sounds like it was from the Midwest.

[Twelvestring Johnny]

*Speaks English in dusty accent.*

D'ye serve a rogue?

[TomUK]

Anyone watching the debate later? Too late for me but will catch it when I wake up.

[OceanAngel]

I've watched some really snazzy paint dry! ^_^

[lavenderbees]

I've watched some really snazzy paint dry! ^_^

That's a coincidence. We've been painting this week too. (Thanks for all the reps.) ;)

[lavenderbees]

:D

Yep, haven't lost my touch then. I often have this effect on people. They see me and vanish, like, sometimes for three days! I'm like the antithesis of Helen of Troy! LOL!

[Alizera]

I do miss those who have not gone over the wall yet though

[MintyAngel]

What is CFF?

[nvrbnunloved]

It's another forum :)

I've just come back over here because I miss so many of my friends here :)

[Alizera]

Oooh...I feel relieved. Got done with my biochem test today. How's everybody else faring?

[karen freeinchristman]

I'm faring very well! :)

[Alizera]

Awesome! I love this board...everybody seems so nice.

[Alizera]

I'm having an awesome day. I'm glad it's Friday. I'm looking forward to going home to my boyfriend and family to have an awesome Thanksgiving. I get to do charity work today.

Just having a really happy day so far! :)

Cool! You seem a very cheerful person. :)

I miss celebrating Thanksgiving. I'm actually American, but moved to England when I was 29. We tried celebrating it here, but it wasn't the same, so we kinda gave it up.

Hope you have a really good one!

[Alizera]

Why'd you move to England?

[Sonfest Rocker]

hi all just popping by quickly

[Andy Broadley]

Hi folks:)

Just popped over from CFF to see how things are here:)

Rather slow seems to be the answer.....

[Alizera]

It always seems a bit slow on this subforum. Oh well.

[Zoness]

Yeah its slow. Whats up everyone? I just got back from an amazing retreat this weekend.

[Alizera]

Really? Where'd you go?

[karen freeinchristman]

Why'd you move to England?Love, I guess! My husband is English. He was working in the States when I met him, then we moved over here after we got married, to be near his parents.

hi all just popping by quicklyHi Haylea! :)

[TomUK]

Yeah its slow. Whats up everyone? I just got back from an amazing retreat this weekend.

Hi Haylea! :)

how r u?

[.Sabre.]

Hi all, haven't been here in a bit. How is everyone?

[karen freeinchristman]

I think most people are few and far between lately...

[.Sabre.]

Think so too......CF could use more silliness.

[Alizera]

Silliness is awesome.

[karen freeinchristman]

:sorry: I don't do silly very well. Only sometimes when it is really late at night.

[.Sabre.]

The tinsel is a lie.

[Alizera]

Finals are a lie.

[karen freeinchristman]

Yeah.

[karen freeinchristman]

Nice photo, Alizera. What are you drinking?

[Alizera]

Some sort of beer...forgot which one, though. :)

[junegillam]

Here's a little glass of virtual bubbly to toast 2009!
