LOL spogga, you’re nuffin’ but a cheeky Manchesterarian, methinks! Feeling better now, though?! _rubs her gnawed hand and applies perfumed lotion_ lurksfromwork, it may be the known as the City of Churches, but that certainly doesn’t mean that I frequent “those places”! Adelaide is also known as the city of the most macabre murders! …And yes I AM having much fun! This place is great! 😃 ---

Spogga, I had to giggle, your “bold” thinggummy-jig" didn’t work … Just saying is all! **But I think my “Bold” works!!** LOL Only stirring you 😃 You keep dropping in that word"sexy". To me that simply makes you even more CHEEKY! But I must agree the user names may become a little befuddling… I’ll speak to him in a minute… he’s just gone off for a “beer run”… I get him to come and say something shortly… 🆒 ---

Hi, **wendyrules**. Are you aware of our regulations stating that all Australian dopers must give everyone a jar of vegemite before being granted board entry? I’m still waiting. Thanks, Your Friendly Vegemite Collector Sorry. I’ll cease the Australian stereotypes soon. Really. ---

(You won’t will you, Jim?!!)** I don’t bite, but sometimes you just have to use your teeth 😉 [sub]I’m completely kidding in that last post. Well, except for the first three words. I promise I won’t bite, the doctors and the insurance don’t seem to take it too well.[/sub] ---

OK lel _salutes and stands to attention_… The shipment of Vegemite will arrive post-haste… (God! How I truly DO love that stuff!) Glad to hear you don’t bite JimSox5 - I wouldn’t take kindly to a “nasty nip” - either that, or I’d have to bite back and then it could be on for one and all! (Nah, just kidding, I don’t bite either, I have a diamond-encrusted solid gold muzzle securely fitted on my snout, at all times) 😃 ---

**wendyrules** , in addition to this thread, I’ve been seeing you in other places, and I also want to welcome a born Doper, if ever there was one. Some of the finest people in the world hang out here, and those who aren’t tend not to hang around. I hope you do. CJ ---
