I’m spending too much time online and not enough time in the real world (both at work and at home); I want this to change and so I’m taking a break from posting here for a while, starting right now. I’ve asked the admins to temporarily suspend my posting privileges as an aid to my willpower.
Please don’t misunderstand this as some kind of huffy flounce - it isn’t; I’m not angling for sympathy or well wishes; I just don’t like leaving untidy loose ends and won’t go without saying this “see ya later!”
To quote the great Lance Armstrong:
“Out you go!”
Good for you Mangetout .
Well let’s hope it’s not a Titus Oates trip outside. Cheers and good times. Have fun.
See you when you are ready to come back.

Enjoy your stay in the Big Room… you know, the one with the light blue ceiling and the really, really bright big light that moves…

Nice reference. Let’s hope Mangetout returns sooner than Oates did.
Tell us what it feels like, will you? (If you ever come back, that is. The World Outside is a big, bad place.)

Man, he needs to get out.

Since you don’t read this, I’m going to combine my ‘good for you’ with ‘highly recommended to others’.
insert obligatory pie request here
Thi big yellow/white ball in the sky is a tool of the gods, burning you for being outside too long. Come back and bring pie for atonement.
Adieu , Mangetout! Don’t be gone long, eh? hugs
