Tesco, Growltigga and Gryphin conversing as usual, Saxon enroute to Moose Kissing Country, I finaly beat the metal monster and was able to download the mods of the gold cd, embarrasing myself as usual, everyone getting ready for the galactic showdown, we need to know if your friends are going to join in, Mephisto as been kind enough to host, so later this or early next week we'll all have to discuss the final setup for the game, Oh and lock your doors at home, there is a rumor that someone or something is removing ones unmentionables from the premisis,
weird huh, as you can see, just the usual goings on

just some ideas mac

Gee, all this concern about the kissing of moose. Given the looks of some of the ladies in Ohio (Mac’s wife is from out of state) I am surprised that there is not more of this kind of activity going on.

I had hoped to stop in London and see if Shreck really looks like Shreck, but unfortunately he lives about a million miles from where I though he did, so that will not be possible. Instead, I will ask him to confirm a rumour that I have been told. Is it true that I can get a pint at 5 AM on Cowcross St.? There is said to be some legislative error that allows them to serve very early in the day.

Oh, on a different note, I must crow. I am in a three way PBEM game with some friends and have just scored a major victory. Something about having waited nine months to get to this point really adds to the pleasure. That said, I must reiterate that AI races should be left out of our game, they do make things unequal. I get the EEE as neighbors, you get the Rage, hmm, who has it easier?

Some go set up the game in PBW and drop a line here saying what game it is. Then we can go join it.

And set a milestone on the start date.

I will adjust accordingly to the rules.

. Is it true that I can get a pint at 5 AM on Cowcross St.? There is said to be some legislative error that allows them to serve very early in the day.

Cowcross Street? that is behind the Savoy Hotel isn't it? I recall that there used to be some daft provision for bankruptees in the 1800's that meant they could be arrested and thrown into debtors' jail if caught anywhere in England, except for around the Savoy Hotel which was technically, part of the Duchy of Savoy and therefore had extraterritoriality - that may be why this bar can serve alochol so late/early (depending on your point of view) but I have never been and dont know.

I would say that if you need a pint that badly at 5 am then 2 things spring to mind

1 you have not roistered enough that night if you still need alcohol at that time of the morning - me, I am normally curled up in a gutter cuddling a kebab and dribbling by 11.30pm or

2 you are starting way too early

I would be interested to know how you get on and how many Moose you 'make it with' (is that the correct American phrase?) whilst you are in BC

I guess I could get derisive but that would not be gentlemanly of me.

Well elementary my dear Watson, deducted from inference

PS the sad thing is that he is not denying anything
