RE: Tell a porkie pie about the person above you....

Likes having cucumber sandwiches and cup cakes for High Tea every afternoon.

RE: GPS

Immediately!...You'll be learning from the best..

RE: GPS

Is that taking the Orient Express, then the Trans Siberian Railway, whizzing through Outer Mongolia, then all the way backtracking across through Morocco, then to London through the Channel, across to Paris...

Looks fascinating, Conrad. Thanks!

Are you hooked up with the software?

Science and creativity go hand in hand. I've often wondered if the sci-fi writer doesn't inspire the scientist, and the other way 'round - each challenging each other, at times egging each other on, perhaps.

A bit of an aside kinda quesrtion: Is it true, that according to the Theory of Everything, the universe could actually recreate itself - as if it were in the cellular structure to do.

About distances between galaxies - totally unfathomable. All very exciting though. I would love to turn on the news and hear that we have deciphered the coded messages scientists have picked up from far, far away...

Grappa? Can't stand the stuff...'Cept in espresso coffee on a cold winter's day.

RE: Text speak

Yes, all in jest. Which is why I lied, that I meant it, when I didn't mean it. I think...Know what I mean??...Cos I no longer do!

RE: Random Comments #366

Always such a good idea talking about people's private lives. Wouldn't be CS, now would it?

RE: GPS

Better idea. Throw out the GPS dilemma, worry about SEK...

And look for a cheap 30euro flight to Brindisi

RE: Random Comments #366

Yep, hilarious, innit?

Just trying to outdo you!!

RE: GPS

That sounds very promising and not so daunting. These Garmin gadgets seem worth exploring, too.

How funny, MS! Not often do you get to be able to have such a scenario, with electronic male and female instruments battling it out for supremacy!... Mind if I include it in one of my writings??

RE: GPS

It will only be Italy. That's enough of a challenge to last me a lifetime. About France, it's not a country I have anything to do with. I think I might have confused you, not sure. Martina Franca is a city in Puglia, Italy. I will be about 7kms from there. I'm really looking forward to exploring some of the nearby towns and cities, so it's great news abouthow user friendly some of the latest GPS systems are. Though it's just gotta be all in English!

RE: What do you open first when you get online ?

Go to sleep!

RE: Text speak

Yes, of-course I mean that. Would I lie to you?

RE: GPS

Thanks so much for that information, Med. Ya taking notes,T.??

Turns out I have to pay extra to have GPS with the hire car, so I might as well buy it preferably before I get there, as long as I can load the relevant software onto it.

Again, ta

RE: GPS

Hi Tule,

I guess eventually you find your way, which means you're never really lost. I do know what you mean, though, but maybe stop telling yourself with such certainty, that you get lost, cos you will make sure you always will by thinking that.

Anyway, about a GPS, you might as well try it. Another source of frustration at the start perhaps. I have never used one, but I'm having to face the dreadful reality of having to do just in a country I have never driven in. Italy. I am terrified. I have no choice in the matter, as I will have no-one there where I'm going and I will just HAVE to drive.

Wanna come and hold my hand??!!

Likes to yodel naked under a full moon...

RE: Is there a pretty woman awake I can flirt with.

No, not everyone...How on earth could it possibly matter, when it's supposed to just be a bit of fun???

RE: Random Comments #366

Get better soon, serene...

So you can really give 'em hell on CS!!
