Dead eh? Not that pro-life, then?

Had half an hour at the end of the day (in my own time) to plot a graph of sorts. We now have 12 pages on Prince Phillip's thread (and looking like starting the 13th page. Noting the date of each first post on that page, I plotted a curve between each bar (indicating a block of 20 posts) and staging each 10mm wide bar 10mm above the other, but stepped back by a mm for each corresponding month between each bar. Now all this data goes back to 2003. Ignoring the fact of internet growth, I plotted 11 curves, each one using 3 points. 2 common points - the start point and the last point (12th page) and the third one each and every point of each interceding bar. Result... Each curve went beyond expernential within the space of two years (bar one which went a further 5 years) so that sort of tells me he has only a one in eleven chance of lasting more than two more years before he is interneted to death by the shear weight of posts flashing before his eyes...

Yer... James Burke's brother... Wright Burke...

She's lasted far longer than I think most expected, don't underestimate the old bag

Chinese hamster? What? You mean it's very furry? Anyway length don't come into it. Mine went all the way to Amsterdam and back, still without any action...

For my part I loved the vegetarian meal catastopy, that's one, I hope, that will stay long in my memory. And for those who were not there. We poled up to the suggested place. (I was expecting pizza) And the message filltered back up the throng ( Sure LG said "sorry but it's only vegetarian!") "in for a penny though" we all bought into the idea. But ordering was more like a monty python sketch. Drinks order was problematic. They even had no lemonade. Time goes "I'll have the goat's cheese..." The Answer came back. "We are all out of that". Time scans the menu further, I said, "I would like the lasagna..." To which he said "I think that's the last one". Unhappily Harry said "I was thinking of having that!". Then we had another answer to a later order "I think we have one of those but I could make some more..." Like that's his job! - make food, to order, off his own darn menu... But it was nice... So nice Mrs.Rotten wants me to sleep in the spare bed tonight because she reckons I still reak of garlic... Still the canal boat ride was really a good idea (was that yours Harry?). Glad we did that. Plus Friday nights meal was really nice. Inserting photo here... But not just yet 'cus I've yet to download my snaps. Good conversation made up for my inability to enbibe because of being on antibiotics but at least I had more wits about me not to get run over by a tram or push bike due to not being hammered. Class act LG. Totally off your trolley and still able to walk over cobbled streets and storm drain gaps in stiletto healed high boots. And not to be fleased by a Pakistani shop owner when buying a packet of fags. Time was very eager to take lots of photos. Hope they were all good ones. And as for your beer orders mate, I think you got the best of them. Hope the knock you took on your shin navigating a missplaced step was not painful beyond the day. Welshman, I think you had the best ring site seat to view that street fight. Like LG said, "nice that for the fifth time there was yet again someone new coming along to the Con', and an Admin to boot." Ditto Hein, what can I say, top bloke, fine host and thanks very much for the toffee waffles and salt liquorice (accurired taste in the round). Wonderful weekend, thanks. And... As for next year... How about doing a long weekend block booking on an old converted Scottish castle / fortified keep / hotel thing? Castle Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh?

Always wondered why they don't have a doped up Olympics.Lets see just how fast they can run or fly the Drug manufacturers could sponsor it and sure would look good .

Or should that be cooling down?
