OK, a touch over the top;

but I bet it got your attention!

Let my ice fingers close over your heart...

...let my drear mornings offer you no hope of sunshine to come. I shall not rest my snows nor my gloomy rains until torpor reigns in the Morniverse and nothing is but glumness, glumness everywhere. Hibernate, run from me, or try to endure me - you cannot prevent me nor the keening grey sorrow of the moods I offer.

[spirit] a popular phrase in my house... "oooo-kaaay..." (say it out loud, slightly like jim carrey *shudder*)

[chalky] thanks... I think. I do my best.

Chalky

[Tuj] yes it did!

[The Spirit of Winter]
Bring on your frosts of spectre-grey, your frozen leaves and skies of dun! The weakening eye of day can never chill; for friendship doth not turn cold when that warm heart that beats deep within fires the furnace of goodwill. Thus shall this community seek the warmth of its homely hearth whilst the dregs of winter's spirit is humbled ...

The Spirit of Winter

[Chalky]OOOoooooOOOOh! Get you!

nights

[spirit, chalky] take it OUTSIDE, both of you!

Is it time to grant it special status yet? I fancy an imposter's game, or summat...

The Spirit of Winter

I am outside.

Jasmine

Err.?

Hello!!!!

Dujon

Hello to you too

I'm a bit worried. You're not the jasmine to which my wife took her secateurs a couple of days ago are you? If you are I shall have to have a cup of tea a Bex and a good lie down. Oh dear, oh dear . . .

[Tuj] The SpecialStatus AddOn Pack (TM) has not yet been enabled, so, erm, no.

a little off topic (no change there, then) but thank God it's Friday. has everyone else had a shocking week or is it just me?

Chalky

[nights] probably just you

Bah! I enjoyed that poetic exchange and would have happily crossed further swords with the 'spirit', teetering, as we were, on the brink of yet another 'Winter versus Summer Debate'.
So the follow-up disappointed somewhat, whilst bringing to mind Wot Dan Said in MCiOS a couple of weeks back [and I paraphrase] - anonymous posting by regulars is relatively harmless fun ... however, if the post is directed at a named person, perhaps it's fairer not to hide behind the cloak of anonymity?

*throws down gauntlet in the spirit of goodwill* :-)
