*is smug*

[FGZStar] In the spirit of shameless self-intoxication, can I direct you to buy me a pint?

[Sierra Mike] I will happily give you this virtual pint of tapwater.

[FGZstar] If you're heading out of Sydney or down to Melbourne or Canberra announce it on the Pilg page on Orange as PaulWay is in Canberra, flerdle, CdM and I are in Melbourne and I think someone's in the Blue Mountains.

Bugger, just realised you're already off in the land of the long white bodies, I mean cloud.

Strange you should think that, as I'm actually back home in the UK (The blog's a bit out of date, needs updating)

[nfras] Our mountain man of mystery would be Dujon; he doesn't travel, so PaulWay and I verified he exists by going to Blaxland ourselves in December 2003; one of the first antipopilgs. It might even have been the first antipopilg.

That's flerdle on the right (as you view the image) and me on the left. PaulWay declined the offer of inclusion (he was too busy programming his brand new all-singing all-dancing MP3 player).
As you can see my 'pleasant chap' (thanks flerdle) reputation came from my inability to keep up my head and thus was forced to address my witticisms to the beer drenched table at which we sat. Incidentally, the drink that flerdle had before her at that moment was not coffee. ;)

Yes, couldn't recall if it was Dujon or Dunx and didn't want to cause anyone offence.

Was it really 2003, flerdle? I suppose it must have been as I have brown hair in that photograph. I now look more like a polar bear rather than the grizzly that I presented as in those days. *sobs*

(flerdle) Oh, he exists all right - I've spoken to him on the phone, would you believe. A charming fellow but with a poor sense of timing - it was about 3.45 a.m. here but we yakked away for over half an hour. Must've cost him a fortune. One of only three Morniversers I've actually spoken to.

[FGZ*] I was, but I'm not now.

(FGZstar) - Yes, me, hence Duj's phone bill.

[FGZstar) I am, more or less indefinitely.

Please, go take a look at www.everlastinglight.tk and let me know what you think!

[KS] I think it needs some extracts and perhaps some sample illustrations, and maybe you should say which age range each book is aimed at. And it also desperately needs a professional portrait picture of you, the author. At first glance (and that's all you get from any web-user visiting your pages for the first time - I think the patience limit is less than 7 seconds, isn't it?) there's not enough information there to make the books appealing and make me want to buy them.

Right now it won't load for me...

You need to lighten up the background, as the text is hard to read, and change the font to being bigger and more interesting, as the current font is a bit dull. May I suggest Verdana or maybe even Arial, although as it's for children's books, maybe Comic Sans would be more appropriate. Also rethink the logo as it doesn't really jump out at you. I'll try and have a go later and if it looks good I'll upload it onto the web and post it here for you.

[FGZStar] I'm in Leicester. At Phil's pub.

I knew that one. What happened to your web page, anyway? It's coming up account suspended
