Okay, break time! Scarlett, No marathoner re? I thought, there were three of us and the pomp and show had begun in earnest with you blazing the trail! You as our loyal spectator - accepted all the same! The game has finished though - so, you've been fired from your job of 'spectating'! :)) Get used to 'eating door' re? :) :).. My molars and canines are all in tact, mind you - haven't worn away deep into their pulp and the gum as yet because perhaps I indulge less in this 'door-eating' business than you lot! But hey, this may well point towards the sad end of my seemingly orderly perfect life and hence, the scary start of the door-eating spells that awaits its turn to pounce at me with a vengeance! You'll never know! All very scary indeed - my knee-caps are knocking with fear! :) And yes, life does have this habit of throwing rubbish at you at times, doesn't it? The beauty perhaps rests with how well and effortlessly you can dodge its rubbish-throwing tantrums though! Easier said than done though, innit (this is my wee cockney burr hai, in case you were wondering!)? I think, I am pretty good in that quarters at least! So, no worries. Oh about the chat thingy. Wasn't aware of one in Sajha until fairly recently. I have never been techo-savvy, you see! Very old-fashioned sad old git that I am! I wasn't that much of an avid chatter but used to spend quite a bit of my spare time logging onto the nepalnews.com a few years back. Did meet some wonderful people but the sad thing about it was that I never got round to keeping in touch. A chronic procrastinator as I am! But yes, chatting is fun but very time consuming. I don't know if I have still got the same energy left but we'll see if I can slip back to my old ways! Oh Danny is one sweet man - very funny and intelligent. I have a feeling that he does know my cousins who were born and bred in Singapore which I might ask him in due time. He must be burning the midnight oil eh at the mo! The oil-burning spells are long gone for me! Thank goodness. Oh about the bottom smacking bit. Rest assured, peace is the one and most vital component in life's many principles that yours truly lives by. The thought of dominating our own feisty scary Scarlett does not even come into the equation - forget carrying it out! :) No, I don't like hospital food in case you were wondering - so forget about breaking my ribs to bits! (This is typical English humour hai!) :) So, don't worry. That was my little attempt at whipping up some humour but it appears that it failed miserably. So my apologies. ********************************** Rose, yes craziness all around. Laptop will be sorted (I hope) and so will be 'the playing all the way round and round' and let's see how far it can get the crazy neurotic us! So, watch the space! Oh as an aside, I'm seriously thinking about going on a skiing trip to the Scandinavia in the winter but we'll see how things will pan out for me. If not during the X-mas break, then the Spring time (sometime in April) would be my next option as that's when I will be on a longer break. Might take a detour to the centre of the Europe proper! :) So, a little heads-up for you there! Okay enough for one post. I might shoot home now. Have a good weekend you all. Carpe diem
