You spawny get, I havn't had a holiday since September and am really feeling it. Sri Lanka? where were you? I thought it a rather lovely place indeed when I went there back in 1997

He's eager to celebrate his recent wedding by buying a round or Arrak for everyone, getting thoroughly drunk

Congratulations, I had no idea that your young lady (assuming that it is a young lady) had had the poor sense to agree to marry you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif I assume you caught in a moment of weakness, such as when she was shopping for shoes or something. We need some getting thoroughly drunk round here. As you can see the cantina has died a death!

and then and performing a traditional Sri Lankan wedding dance on 'Tigga's head (while wearing somewhat less than traditional pair of football boots.)

As a mark of respect for the new Mrs Dogscoff, I will not remove your happy sacks for that remark, nor will I employ Erax's freshly roasted red hot poker in its traditional fashion!

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Well it's our first holiday in two years (and probably our Last for another two=-) but we had an unprecedented chance to splash out at the travel agents so we did. And decided to take the opportunity to get married while we were at it- less hassle and expense than doing it at home.


<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yeah, it still is. There's a real sense (or there was to me) of growth and increasing prosperity over there. Things are pretty hard for a lot of ppl there but you get the feeling that it's getting better.
And the food, the scenery, the wildlife, the local beer and the climate is just superb. I had a fantastic time.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Actually it was her idea. We booked the holiday/ wedding then bought a ring back on April 1st. Then we texted/ mailed our friends/ family and they all thought we were joking=-)

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Right, in that case...

*Dogscoff stands up and walks toward the cliffs above the beach. He finds a particular spot, turns due east and starts counting his steps. The others look on in bewilderment. Eventually he stops and starts digging a hole in the sand. Within minutes he has struck something solid. Rollo and 'Tig help him excavate a large wooden box, which upon opening contains 36 bottles of finest Vaxin Absynthe.

"One of my emergency stashes."

'scoff pops the top off a bottle of the green stuff and passes it round.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Well we've been together for 9 years and living together for 3 of them so she knows exactly what she's getting herself into. We do come into conflict occasionally over my computer use but I generally limit myself to an hour or two a night and then binge when she's not around (she works shifts and has occasional weekends away at college in London). When I'm neglecting her for the PC it's usually a sign that something else is up (ie I'm worried about money or something) and she recognises that and knows how to get past it.

Re: Ye Olde Phong\'s Head Cantina and Bierkeller - The rebirth
 

That pretty much describes our marriage. We're on different schedules, so I tend to hit the PC when she's not around, except when I'm worried about something else - usually money.

Unfortunately, that worry has become something of a constant this year. We needed to achieve 3 major goals to get past it; one of them is achieved, one looks like it will be achieved within 30 days and the third will have to wait until next year.

The current Mrs GT is the same, but she watches vast amonts of television, or spends cash shopping when she is not savaging sheep and slaughtering the local wildlife.

I dont watch television much so tend to go on the computer in the evenings, or when the witch queen of cheshire is out spending more cash shopping

but this weekend, I have a lads trip to Dublin..

that combined with the rubgy, will be marvellous.

and what is wifey doing when I am supping the guiness? shopping!" what else!

Re: Ye Olde Phong\'s Head Cantina and Bierkeller - The rebirth
 

Hello guys,
Hope everyone is good.
I miss the place.

We have two computers and cable access so it is not an issue.

Wish I could think of something funny or provacative to say but ...

ah, good Gryphin, glad to see your up and about, and Mooning the wiley old furry feline, brings back memories of the old cantina, (besides he deserves the shock http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif (now keep your hands off my pizza and watch out for the rose bushes http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif )

as mac signs off from the switch board, he turns around, sees GT standing in the middle of the room, mumbles to himself, what the heck, turns around, bends over and gives the wiley furry toothless one a 2nd shot for the price of one LOL
for old times sake.... Yahooooooooooo iiii eeeeee

Feeling much refreshed, mac pulls up his drawers, walks over to his portable table, picks up a fresh pizza laying on it, picks it up, sees the Gryphin laughing off to the side, and lets fly,
SPLAT,,
