G'day folks!
Thanks for the new home Gen. Missed the vote, but I couldn't have thought of anyone better to start this new episode of the NPT.
Unfinished business from last thread: I think birdseed was supposed to be missed. No idea why phone thought I wanted to say birdseed, sure I've never typed that before!0 -

You really don't need to have typed something before. I typed Colore once (part of a brand) and the ipad felt it fit to replace it with "colorectal". Not a word that comes up at all in my world, unless I'm talking about this spellchecker!Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Population: 6 humans and a dog.
Address: In the middle of nowhere, on the way to somewhere, outback South Australia.
They have cold beer, good steaks, and their very own airstrip.

Somehow when asked to imagine Will.I.Am's boutique hotel in Nice that wasn't exactly what came to mind...
Thank you very much Mr G El Presidente Sir! for allowing us to visit your new thread, I assume the Visa fee should be paid via a bundle of low denomination unmarked US Dollar bills as normal?I think....0 -
Thanks Gen! Loving the new surroundings, feeling very at home.
Mine's a Bloody Mary.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Thanks Gen.
Has a very Gen feel to the opening post so you have truly embedded our Australia branch into the NP brand.
My current tipple is Hendricks gin with cucumber. I may have one now to celebrate. This feels like a thread of new beginnings, a Nice baby, a post cancer, post house buying watershed for NP.
Only the Nice baby was predicted for the last thread.
If I could have a wish for the lifetime of this thread (like New Year Resolution without the diet/giving up/taking up bit) it is that LiR gets a foot on the road to recovery.0 -
Thank you spirit.
Today started well, but I've come to bed now.
. Hopefully will be back on feet in a bit.
My wish would be your surgery goes well and that your levels are more easily controlled and you find great health. So , there!0 -

It does indeed.
Funnily enough, it feels like a time of big change is all around us at the moment, I know a lot of people IRL as well trying new directions in life, moving houses, getting new jobs, etc.
Almost a bit like people have been in a metaphorical bunker for the last 7 years, and are now coming out of it and getting on with things.
