I`m still alive.grin

I hover in the background (happily married and all that jazz stuff)

Haven`t exited CS simply because I can be found STILL trying to get a high score in this stupid Pumpkins game!

But I do keep an eye on you all from time to time.hug

Hi Smoky,how are you?


Howzit Conradwave

Very well, thank you.

Nice to see you "hovering" here as well.

Not much of interest to comment on here, but dear old Phoenix does seem to keep the pot boiling - in his strange Irish way grin

Like a typical Granny, I`m waiting to see if any of these youngsters here get hitched to each other, or even just get to meet up. Seems Europe is just too large for much travelling?

Problem is Conrad you have been here a long time, like me, l have never been fully involved in the forums purely because its not possible to have a valid opinion, l do remember some people from years gone by, the guy from Malta that was very involved and a lady from Malaga way who was a teacher of English, l have been trying to remember more but no one else has come to mind, good to see you are still here keeping the fire boiling.

How'd you do at the "missionaries and cannibals" game? I failed miserably, couldn't get all the missionaries eaten, no mater how hard I tried.mumbling

I have a picture I keep meaning to send you (for years), but it's trapped on my old laptop. I should figure out how to get them all off there when I get home.

wave Hello Kid at heart! You still alive?! (obviously) hahahaa

Hows the snow up your way? Lots of snow here this winter - keeps me house-bound.

I will have to have a try at your "missionaries and cannibals". I think I should just give up that stupid Pumpkins game .. it never lets me get over about 60,000 - just wipes me out all the time!

You married yet? Or am I the only old-timer here who`s married?!

You thinking of Rusty Knight in Malta? (Gozo actually) and his lady in Malta? (I forget her name now) but I heard she died - very tragic as she was such a vibrant and happy person, and not old!

I saw Rusty when I was in Gozo in May - he`s still the same - and got a very lovely partner.

The teacher of English ....... Yes, I remember her, have actually seen that sometimes she pops in to CS now and again. Her name also evades me for now. I seem to remember she re-married her ex husband?

Anyway .... CS does seem awfully dull - for single people anyway! Not much action going on for a long time.
Like an old coffee shop where locals sometimes pop in!

Ok, I tried it. Got them all over to the other side without anyone being eaten! Took something like 86,000 points or seconds of something or other...?

You first take off 2 cannibals, put them on the other side.
Load one cannibal back on raft and take him over (so each priest has a cannibal with him - two on each side and two on raft).
Unload the priest and put the right side cannibal on raft and ship over the 2 cannibals.
So you have 3 cannibals on one side and 3 priests on the other side.
Now take back a cannibal and leave him on the other side with one priest, and take two priests back to left side (more priests than cannibals)
Take a cannibal back to R side, load another one on, and take them back.
Reload a cannibal, go back load up the last cannibal and take them both over. Hey presto!

Oh no, reading my post it doesnt make any sense!

But anyways..... you keep going back and forth like an idiot never leaving more cannibals than priests on one side. Keep taking them over and over ... and somehow it works out. Hahhaaaa..... Like one of the posters said ... its like the old game of A Cabbage, A goat, and a dog.

The goat will eat the cabbage if left alone,
The dog will eat the goat if left alone.

Take goat over.
Take cabbage over.
Bring goat back.
Take dog over.
Bring cabbage back.
Take goat over.
Bring dog back.
Take cabbage over.
Bring goat back.
Take dog over.
Take goat over.

And similar with them priests and cannibals..... hahahaaaaa

smoky: Tony? South African Swiss guy, artist? Lived in Malta. He and Rusty were always having a go at each other - was fun in an evil way. ( He was bald, so don`t know about that thread ... hahahaa)


You mean lagoona...



smoky: Teacher lady was ....... Anne? Blonde, very sensible, went to Russia periodically to teach Business English to Russians...?


You mean Jan, blonde scouser... She always came back to the dark side and started smoking agiain (good girl), living in sunny Spain..?


@Smoky, spoke to Rusty this morning on Skype and he's still alive and breathing... Needed a shave though. he said "hello" and is in fighting form.

Aahh.... good day to you Sir Phoenix!

Yup, you got that right ... LAGOONA and Jan!!!! Amazing memory you have!

You spoke to Rusty? Such a nice person he is. When we were there in May he drove us all over Gozo showing us places many tourists never get to see. He could be a real Official Guide to Gozo!

Then there was marti & cherchic from Malta, Sommer, a baldy headed English head living in Italy reading tarots.....Not forgetting the one and only Weddy.

The other morning I was having a toke and a coffee cowboy style (black no sugar) listening to Hank Williams (honest) and he called me. He seems in good form.
