I work in Manchester (but reside further south) and I think the force of the tremour was about 2 on the richter scale so nothing major but it doesn't half make you jump when it happens I can tell you

We've had (in my livetime) 2 very small quakes. I didn't feel the first one because it was in the middle of the night, but the second I did feel. It was in the early morning. It was kind of scary to feel the earth shake. I think that quake was 1 on the Richter scale.

It is not good. I was in Athens about 15-16 years ago when they had a 30 second quake. I cannot remeber how powerful that one was but it went on for about 30 seconds, which was 29 seconds of trying to work out what was happening and then 1 second of losing bladder control...

Horrible, absolutely horrible.

My dad once sailed through a small tsunami when he was in the navy and said it was one of the most terrifying things that had ever happended to him (other than finding out one of his sons was going tobe a lawyer)

LOL The horror, the horror, do you represent him for free? do you actually charge your own family for your services *dumb question but i wonder these things *

I was just thinking what the future holds for the regulars of the cantina...

Growltigga for world leader???
Timstone accidently discovers time travel with his gearbox???
Dogscoff dominates the seafood market???

Glad you were up my end of the country GT, how was cumbria?

Laywers are modern day jedi knights? If you keep your light sabres in your troUsers it would explain why you guys always have one hand in your pocket

I can see it now
Lawyer 1: I sense a disturbance in the force
Lawyer 2: No it was just an accident claim

Maybe, but it generally is only a disturbance in the force if the client doesn't pay within 30 days, and then you have to stray toward the dark side by chopping their legs off at the knees...

Light sabres in the pocket? no, as lawyers, we just know that we have the biggest todgers around

Cumbria was cool, stayed at a castle near Appleby/Brough, nice place, weather was horrible

*Dogscoff wonders what the hell he's supposed to do with a lifetime's supply of Babycham. He sure as Flock isn't going to drink it. He also wonders whose lifetime he got - he doesn't drink the stuff, so surely there should have been exactly 0 bottles delivered to his battlemoon, instead of the delivery he did get which forced him to drain one of his monster breeding oceans to accomodate it. Dougal, one of the radioactive giant penguins, didn't get out in time and has (oddly) grown a mullet in some kind of wierd physical reaction.

Suddenly, Dogscoff has an idea. As an experimet, he has 40 crates of the stuff brought down from the battlemoon to the mini resource converter machine. 40 crates of nasty girly 80s yuppie piss go in, 1200 minerals come out. He uses the money to buy an extra fine bottle of Vaxin absynthe for 1150 minerals and a copy of Moulin Rouge on DVD with the remaining 50. Crap film, but he wants to see the bit at the beginning with Kylie Minogue as the absynthe fairy again. And again.

He puts the film on and cracks open the bottle, inviting everyone in the cantina to have a hallucinagenic tipple and look for fairies...

Hahaha... a downright killing joke RD, you should be sued for that!! LOL!!!
Hmm... timetravel with a gearbox. Crazy enough, it might just work. Timstone goes to his ship with his mind pondering about the possibilities.

Dogscoff: Wow, I'll join you with that Vaxin absynthe!! Since I went to the Czech Republic, I'm a BIG fan of absynthe. Damn shame I can't buy it in my country. We have all a junkie could wish for but no absynthe. Absurd, isn't it!

*Dogscoff presses a button on his remotre control unit and a large grain of salt (5 feet across) falls from a trapdoor in the ceiling and squashes Timstone.
