I'm interviewing at work and we are currently doing the excel assessment so I am busy farting about on the Internet for half an hour - woohoo!

It seems that we are alone here.

if I didn't have to work I'd never leave! i like to pop in and check on things, there is also the livestock to feed in here... and a one legged pirate who sometimes causes mischief

and its a good job you do John - there could be mayhem otherwise!

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Well, Hello Lyn!!

 

[johnandjade]

I think that's brilliant a Chrissy @Prairie Mom - do you really understand it? There's also chewing the fat which is legend. I actually heard that a new still game series is going to be released which I'm really excited about!

I'll have to look into "Chewing the Fat." About understanding it...There are times when some of the minor characters speak quickly and quietly and honestly that can be hard. I do also come across occasional slang that I've never heard. For example, even the expression "Neds." I've never heard it before and I'm still uncertain if that is referring to young teens or more thug/trouble makers?

Ha! Fantastic! Thanks, John

I kind of like the words "bams" and "toon goons" too Must come up with ways to use them in everyday speech!

 

[Prairie Mom]

[Prairie Mom]

Hi there hope all's well!
Nice new avatar - looks like the sort of house a writer of horror/thriller stories might live.
Will have a peak at the book thread.

Thanks We only lived a couple streets away from him in Maine, so whenever people came to visit, we had to take them to his house and get photos done His wife is a writer too and they had some fun with the house. The iron gates are all decorated like spider webs and there are small three-headed dragons. For years, he even sat outside and handed candy to trick or treaters on Halloween. The thing that I think is so cool is that he's loaded to kingdom come and he lives in a regular neighborhood. They're nice big beautiful houses, but he's in the middle of town and surrounded by regular folks with neighbors on all sides. Like I said, my own cheap apartment was only a few streets away.
