    Heh, ^_^

    You'd think so wouldn't you? But it's just been a handle I've used online for years and it sort of stuck. I think years back I saw a guy called fidel_gastronaut on another forum and I sort of stole it. I also love Cuban communist dictators, but in space!

    Hi Fidel, welcome to the NP thread.

    The original post has links to all previous NP threads.
    You will find we are a welcoming bunch, and this is an oasis of peace and tranquility, especially when compared with the raging intellectual ferment that fills the rest of the Debate board. ;)

    Hi Fidel, welcome to the NPT :)

    The meeting has been a lot more productive than we were planning for. I have now seen some preliminary stage designs and it looks amazing :cool:

    If anyone would like a Georgian lesson, DD1 is giving the Georgian and DN3 is translating. Don't quote link, will delete in few hours.

    Going to get some lunch, then off to the airport to get back to England :)

    I could not get the link to work. Is it just me?
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Will try to update now.

    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    Bloody insomnia again. Second night on the trot.

    Have been prowling the forums as I'm bored. Gen, they are looking for a G again over at that mad thread in the arms if you are interested, though it has dropped to page two of the arms.

    Time to try to sleep. Again...

    A thought just came to me. You will notice to the left of this post it tells you where I live. I wish more people would put there location. I think it adds to the connection.

    To be fair there aren't really any ropes to learn.

    Indeed the only rules are there are no rules beyond being nice.

    I hope it is nothing serious for your DS and that you get through quickly.

    Standing in line at Chessington for us today, I think most people must have a higher tolerance of queuing than I do.

    All well. He will make it through the night.

    I took the Generissimos to Legoland and got one of those queue jumping things. Highly recommend it. You get a lot more out of the park and you don't have to stand in a hateful queue with proles.
