    It always is - tonight I've decluttered a book, a set of freebie juggling balls, and a weird game I bought from the Moon Society when I was a member of the Mars Society - its probably based on orbital velocities, but its extremely naff

    I've decluttered enough stuff to fill my wheelie bin - I'm having to use my garden waste wheelie bin as temporary storage... :whistle:

    Do you read any Larry Niven, KC?

    :eek: I can only think about buying one because I have £80 Christmas money left over - can't spend that I'm afraid :eek::rotfl: that just makes me giggle hysterically, actually :o sorry Bob :kisses3: I hope you get the grinder.

    Oh I love Larry Niven! I've just decluttered Ringworld, sadly :obut I'm keeping Fallen Angels and Footfall - they're both strong on fannishness; I met him at the World SF Con in Chicago about ten years ago, I signed up for a kaffeeklatsch, which was a dozen fans sitting around a table talking with him. I asked him a question about Lucifer's Hammer, which I can't find at the moment, and he brushed me off a little, but when he realised I really loved his characterisations, he gave me the truth, which was brilliant :j:j:j

    I didn't notice what I'd done :o I think I was working up to being insulted that you'd even *pretend* I'd watch Jeremy whoosit :rotfl: but I kind of spoiled the effect with that. :rotfl:

    Just been finagling about on the rail websites - I've fixed to do my usual-when-I'm-not-ill two monthly visit to my mum - but no *way* am I paying £85 return. I'd wait for megabus seats, but they don't have any rail journeys at the right time for me. So the main chunk of the trip is via London - Manchester - London, for £28.50 total. Little journeys at either end come out at £27 total, so thats £56, more or less. Not great, but still much better :D

    I'm off to my partner's today, and I'll stop at the Wilko's in the intermediate town on the way back for various house-type things :D hope everyone has a good'un - I like being able to get on here lateish in the evening, I hate it that my connection cuts out. Everyone play nice now! :cool::D:cool::D:cool::D

    I found an even earlier computer mag bemoaning "Massive price rises in NT 4.0"...

    So how is something strong on fannishness, and what is fannishness anyway? (Apart from looking like a fannish...)
