To bring all of this back where it started, I note that Gryphin’s Fyre states her interests to include “Covered Wagons”. A risk of another injury to Mac’s wrist, would you care to explain if this has any relation to “Circling the Wagons?”

Mephisto, you have put me in a terrible dilemma. Do I play an obnoxiously self assured imperialist race or do I play race of leave canceling, bureaucracy loving buggers?


Cheers to all for the sympathy about my leave.

[quote]do you suggest that I am being paid by Sir Gryphin to be an ONLINE compatriot?[quote]

Yes, that was the total ambit of my suggestion. Please do not think I was implying that your good character had any sort of commercial negotiability to it

[quote] Hmmm.. makes one wonder...either way suggests you may need to re-evaluate where you spend your free time such as in bars in spain oggling the wait staff in front of Mrs. Tiggles. [quote]

As a separate point, "GT", "Tigga", "Growltigga" and "Tigs" I can handle, "Tiggles" is a step too far down the beatrix potter lane

Mrs GT is well aware of the attractions in Spain. She spends her time shopping in Zara and Arrarat - I spend mine having a cafe american in the Zahara bar on the Gran Via in Madrid watching the scenery and admiring the local architecture - mobile and otherwise

[quote] If in your dotage you carry the same actions of your youth, "sloshing hormones" and all, Mrs. Tiggles has her hands full and has my blessings.[quote]

I think that is why Mrs GT married me - I am sure it has nothing to do with my good looks, charm, panache, style and elegance

[quote]Perhaps you would bode well to have a clear head when in battle, putting the hormones in a jar, tightly sealed and waxed tight. [quote]

Saxon, please please please do NOT reopen that particular line of enquiry.

Just play yourself (ouch, that was a little triple O)

You actually do have my undivided unqualified sympathy on this. I think that this is exceptionally tough, especially given the ludicrous American work efthic to holidays - I am a supporter of the European concept of work hard, play hard and as us Brits work the longest hours in Europe, the 5-6 weeks holiday we get a year are even more precious

To: The self styled anachronostic El-Supremo of the Tkachik Federation,

Thank you for your message which we naturally have disregarded and treated with the complete contempt it so rightly deserves. We can only assume that it is your advanced years and lack of suitable rheumatism cream that makes you act in such an uncivilised manner.

What sort of ludricrous pomposity makes your empire consider that we would submit anything in triplicate to you in order to seek consent or waste paper which could be more usefully employed as toilet roll.

Why would the glorious Tigga Confederation seek consent from an empire that sounds like us wretching up furballs?

In respect of your accusation that we have intruded on the Attica system, you should be aware, as is all galactic civilisation, that the Attica system is assigned to us as our ancient litter tray. If you wish to live in the catsan, you are most welcome but do not be surprised if we then leave a few Messages there. And as for 'hideous looking spawn', we are cats, we are cool, we look good doing anything.

Your 'valiant and superior naval forces' have as much chance of trouncing the glorious fleets of the Tigga Confederation as you do of winning Miss Universe.

We suggest you get a life, get some style and keep out of the cat's way

Grrrrrr

Regards

Growltigga I, the indisputable top cat of the Tigga Confederation and glorious holder of the Officer Dibble award

Awful lot to do at the moment, just writing a verdict and trying desperately not to cut and paste SE4 beta reports and forum postings into it. Would look a little weird if such thing would slip by.



Mephisto, just out of professional curiousity, what sort of law do you specialise in?

GrowlTigga,
Just posting this here so we don't end up too far off topic in the New Races Thread".
(not that it would ever happen).
Sounds like a good set of books. Um, what do you mean by "nasty"? You know I am a very inocent.
