Wa-hey! For the first time in ages, and at the risk of appearing anti-social, I've had the chance to mooch about undisturbed at home, and in addition to a satisfyingly long walk in lovely winter sunshine this afternoon (the third such walk this holiday - I'm doing really well), I've got the printer set up ready to produce my masterpiece photos saved up from various trips this year. Cooooooool :o). I'm a bit frantic about going to a rather smart New Year party tomorrow night though - it necessitated the purchase of a velvet coat. Will report back with results. How many people, when pissed, will think that I'm Lisa Tarbuck? Guesses please!

[pen] Cultivate a very slight Scouse accent and you'll be set.

being as noone else has said it, happy new year. hope 2005 is everything everyone wants it to be.

omigod... I didn't get recognised at all! The party was just too posh and too arty for anyone to have even watched ITV!

And a Happy New Year to you lot too! :o)

To all a happy new year!

I'm pretty sure I typed "05" in my first Apropos... who stole it?

wasn't me.

[Tuj] I ain't not stolen nuffink ;o)

mmmmmm...what...? noisey youngsters!

The office is quiet, everyone seems to be in shock at being back at work. Thankfully very few emails.

Am I right in thinking that the little Teddy currently making an appearance top left of the Welcome (Menu) Page originally exhibited him~(or indeed her~)self on Rick's Beer powereed MC site of blessèd memory ? Or am I befuddled ? Happy New Year BTW.

I haven't had any email since about december 23. I love university vacations.
On a sidenote, happy birthday me...

[nights] Happy Biirthday! I suppose that makes you ancient, like the rest of us, now?

[pen] shut up shut up shut up. I'm only 20.

[nights] *splits ancient sides laughing and loses dentures* I'm forty this year, you young fool. I'm still not old!

[pen] and with an attitude like that, you never will be. more alcohol!!

[pen] No, at 40 you are still a youngster! (Well I am anyway).

[Boolbar] I know I'm still young - I've just installed broadband at home and only had to shout at one technical helpdesk person. I tried the old trick, calling again in the hope of talking to another techie, and it worked. This one knew what I was talking about and helped me install the right modem drivers. Only problem is, I have to sit on the bottom step of the stairs so that all the cables reach. The plan is to go wireless too, as both my flatmate and I want broadband on our laptops. At this rate, I'm going to have a house full of spaghetti.
