Just about gone here, now.

It lashed it down for a while after my earlier post....turning our road into a 'river' for an hour or so, and sending a torrent down the track opposite us.

Wow... :o That's quite an accident Phil, your wife has had her share of luck!
Good thing this year is almost over; I'd stay in till next year and she get's a new batch of luck!

Sorry to read about your wife's accident, Phil.  :o

Hope she's well on the road to recovery now.

Just as well it didn't happen on the same day you cut your tongue.

Your attempts to converse with each other would have been quite interethting ...   ;D
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Techno

Yeth, it would !  ;)  ;D ;D ;D

The swelling on her lip has gone right back down now....Huzzah !!

Sorry to hear about the equine accident, and, as a spectacle wearer, that the glasses survived.

Just realised that the above doesn't make sense. Doh! You all know what I meant.

Is it too early to start the I-Can't-Be-Bothered-With-Celebrating-New-Years blather, waffle and poppycock?

Bah, humbug!

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

I just read "lashed down" and "quite an accident" and conjured up an image I really didn't want...  :'(
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

Quote from: Pendraken Forum News BulletinWe'll be working on the BKC rules over the coming months with a reprint due towards the end of the year.

Its nearly midnight, so not long to wait for these to come out... Will the official unveiling be at 23:59hrs?

:d humorous devil!

I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Probably shouldn't be posting this on this forum? (please let this slide, admins)

But I'm trying all of the forums I'm on in hope of finding some, so I thought I'd try my luck here...   [I'm thinking a paintball participation game using those ruins I've built and NE shows*]

[This is a legitimate enquiry.]

Hello all,

Does anybody have a set of the Ebob Miniatures paintballers that they wish to sell?

I'd prefer unpainted, if possible.

Please contact me through a Personal Message with any details.

Thank you,
Roy

[*If I can find help to man such a game, as I'd struggle on my own. Yes, the running games at shows bug has bit! I was thinking of using a very simple modification to the very simple Some Corner of a Foreign Field set of rules. Paintballing games being more public friendly than modern army versus insurgent clashes when gaming at a show. Well, that's my thoughts at least.]

I think I may have secured some paintballer figures, from a chap over in Germany. Though its dependant upon (hopefully) seeing a photo of them, and payment agreement.

Yes, its another one of my 'public friendly' gaming ideas for participation gaming. The other being the Three Musketeers, those rules used being happily tongue-in-cheek and slap-stick humour based. Quick, easy and fun games being my idea. Something that all ages, and genders, can play. Hopefully.

Is anyone else suffering from a deluge of cold calls, at the moment ?

(It's probably my turn ?)

The really, really irritating thing......Is that they're mostly silent 'hang-ups' from 'international' or 'unavailable' numbers.......(About three a day for the past fortnight, now.)
I want to either really p*ss them about by keeping them yakking, to waste their money.....But being silent, calls I can't even tell them to Eff Off. (Which usually seems to help.)
And I can't report a number if I don't have a specific one to report.

Anyone know if BT will block international calls...and if so...how much ?

I tried investigating that with BT, but gave up....It was taking SO bloody long to speak to a real person.
