strange thing going on...
I

...when i click over to pea's 'intellectual' thread, the screen goes weird and massive and i have to kind of scroll left and right to read across the page. it's not doing it anywhere else - what's going on???

Where is the tea party?

yeah, it's funny how this all works. sometimes the forum's deserted (usually weekends) and other times we will all seem to crave each other simultaneously (what a lovely thought...)

when i'm on my computer i normally have the forum up in the background somewhere. when the writing dries up i click over to refresh, then back to the grind. sometimes i try to be good and not log-on, but i figure that i need regular breaks from what i'm working on, so it's great to think about something else

I KNOW!

I have been described (once or twice...) as being 'elitist' - quite recently, actually (although I still have a school report on which one of my high school teachers has described me as an intellectual snob )

It might not sound very flattering on the face of it, but I'm sorry (actually, I'm not), i'm not claiming to know how to fit a central heating system, cut hair or fix computers...

Otto: "Unfortunately, I cannot identify with such a position."

I meant that although you may not be as accomplished yourself (yet), you 'just have' identified through your sensitivity and empathy (which, btw, i have noticed over time that you have in abundance).

That was all.

they can be quite expensive (if you get them from somewhere like John Lewis) but google 'flexi-bar' and lots of alternatives come up. I worked out the i would have to go to about 12 weeks of classes to buy one - so i'm doing the classes. you wouldn't believe the amount of fitness equipment that's gathering dust around here!
