Mauritius is on the South Eastern part of the globe. It's about 4 hours ahead of UK, so, about 10 to 12 hours difference for the US.

It's 7.15 here :)

Ok, I'll be waiting for your graduation then Jennie :)
I hope the little one is okay too :)

Oh not too shabby up here. Well rested. I really should be cleaning my house, but some how lost my motivation :(

C'mon Bella, do your work! I know AMHD is addicting, but your live should not pay the price ;)

Good Day to all. Good evening, Unky. :)

Jennie, I am so proud of you. Not much longer to go. :D

I know the feeling bell. Lol.

Jerry, ayla is good too. She started 1st grade yesterday and is doing well so far :) they have her IEP set up much better than they did last year and everything seems to be working much better this time. And she got a great teacher.

Hi cat :) thanks :) its good to see you again

C'mon Bella, do your work! I know AMHD is addicting, but your live should not pay the price ;)


Sigh, I know Unky, I know... Why must you always be the voice of reason? Ok, I'll start with another load of laundry than. :p

Enjoy yourself, Bella. Housework can wait. That is my mantra. I don't sweat the small stuff any more. Although my house is not that untidy but with a dog and cat, well, you know, dog in and out on rainy days confucious says, make floor grimy.

By the way, its super hot and humid in Ontario again, 25c and not noon yet. I am on my way out to work again, after doing an overnight palliative and I am not looking forward to mopping myself up ! I should take a sponge,

Have a great day guys !

Tick

Great that things are getting settled well Jennie. I still remember some time ago with all the problems you had... but now, it's all over and things are getting way better! :p

Morning to you Cat! :)

Morning cat, how's the weather down south today?

Sunny but not quite as hot as it has been. That will change soon enough. :(

I hate Beagles. I hate Beagles. I hate Beagles.

This thing whines. This thing has destroyed my screen door. This thing peed all over my carpet AND pooped in Rachel's room and peed all over her sheets.

I take this dog out and it sh!ts in my basement 5 min after a 45 min walk.

I really want to call the owners and tell them I can't do it because I can't it's costing me more than what they're going to pay me.

I don't believe in animal cruelty but I would reallllyyyy like to kick this dog.

Great that things are getting settled well Jennie. I still remember some time ago with all the problems you had... but now, it's all over and things are getting way better! :p

Morning to you Cat! :)

Lol yeah me too. Everythign is much better. About the only issue now is still living in my parents house ugh (controlling, disrespectful, always trying to parent my daughter and make her think she doesn't have to listen to me because aparently my mom is the 'boss' ) but soon I can move out and that will be better.

I accually may have a blessing in hiding cause later today. I'm going to go down to the court office and find out what is going on with my divorce. It was dismissed for no reason that I could see and I didn't get anything in the mail so I started searching for info, and I can't find a record of our marriage ANYWHERE. So its VERY possible that the preist who married us didn't file the papers and we were never marrired (on paper and legally at least) so that would be one less stress loll

Charge them for the Febreze and talk to them about seperation anxiety. Just a thought.

I sure could but I think they knew what I was getting into... bastards :(

Do what I do. Play "hide the puppy til the owner gets there..."

Then, take a polaroid of said puppy...

Then when the owners show up, put a note on it with a ransom... of $5,000,000.

BWA HAHAHAH

Hahaha!! Make that $5000 to pay for my new bedroom set and sheets and stuff and some extra for emotional distress. :p

The people I'm currently staying with... they have a golden lab that weighs roughly 80 lbs, a black poodle that's the size of a small pony, and a tiny little beagle that weighs maybe 15 lbs.

... Right now, for some reason or another, the beagle's in the worst mood ever, growling and showing his teeth, and the other two MUCH larger dogs... are hiding from him.

In a fight, the beagle vs both large dogs... I put my money on that beagle.

Labs... another breed I despise...


I'm just in one sour sour mood today :(

Talking about labs... I didn't see M recently... I hope he's okay down there in Aussie...

Hi all.

I didn't forget your factorisation Unky I just couldn't think of any more tips. How's the studying going?

Hey QP! :)

It's okay, just viewing some sample papers from the past contests to become a little more familiar with the types of questions that are asked :)

Will be keeping everything crossed for you.

Thanks :)

rickj's test questions are getting funnier by the day...

there just so random and unexpected.

Where is that at red?

I haven't seen blacky for a while either? Anyone know where he is?

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/early-childhood-education/help-giving-me-answer-question-rickj-testing-491394.html

Here's one bella.

I usually skim questions and then go back and read.

That's what makes me laugh,my own stupidity!

Think I saw unky post somewhere that M is in aussie at the moment.

Haha that is funny. What's the deal with some people. Jeesh.

For Alty, Red, Cats, and Unky:

Just thought I'd let you know that all of Pete's test results (blood work, labs, MRI) came back normal. :)

Yay! I'm so happy Jlo. :)

Yay! I'm so happy Jlo. :)

I am relieved, but still going to see if I can make some changes - just to be sure he's as healthy as possible. I'm seeing a holistic vet to determine what the very best diet will be. I'll start his walks slowly and watch to see how he's doing.

I also know I have to find a way to stop over-reacting when things like this happen. I was so worried. I seem to expect the worst. :o

I'm happy too that Pete's all right. I'm relieved :)

Excellent news JLO,I'm delighted for pete you and john!

Great news!:)

On a darker note,the house insurance is paid,I'm strongly thinking about burning down this house...

The paint is soaking into the walls around the fire place...

I've given it 4 coats plus an undercoat,its insane in the membrane!

I also know I have to find a way to stop over-reacting when things like this happen. I was so worried. I seem to expect the worst. :o

He was there for you. What's wrong with enthusiastically being there for him? Just don't let the enthusiasm jump into panic and you're good.

JLo, I am notorious for over reacting. Especially when it comes to my poochies. Sometimes, it's better than not reacting at all :)

Thanks Cats and Bella. I know I did the right thing by taking him to the vet and having tests run. It's just the panic part I have to get over. I can't imagine what I'll be like when we start having kids. :o

You will be fantastic,and I know that because you're a fighter with a kind heart... what more could a kid want in a mom.

Got a myspace friend request from a girl I went to high school with. That wouldn't be so bad, except I haven't even seen her since sophomore year, and I don't think we EVER had a real conversation.

We were barely acquaintances, and never anywhere close to being friends, so why is she looking me up on myspace?

I'M Out of HERE!! At least for a couple weeks...

Hi all,

I just wanted everyone to know that I (we) will be traveling to the Grand Canyon and the Rockies for about two weeks... :) I didn't want anyone to think that I may have died... :eek::rolleyes::D

Leaving this Saturday, see you all when we get back. Aaaaaah relaxation... nice. :) ROAD TRIP !!!!

Heath,people that would not stop and say hello on the street send me friend requests... have not a clue why... needless to say,if they can't say hello in real life,what do they expect when I 'ignore' them.


Stringer... you lucky duck,have a great time,take pictures!

I hope you have a wonderful time Stringer.

Thank you pretty lady, I am really looking forward to it.

Hey sunny!

Help with this bloody painting please..

There's more paint on me then the walls.

Stringer have a great time! Be safe! :)

I just got back from an amazing road trip... already planning the next one! Rest, enjoy, have fun exploring... looking forward to some great pics... :)

Spring for the helicopter. The burro train gets painful.

I just got back from an amazing road trip.....already planning the next one! Rest, enjoy, have fun exploring....looking forward to some great pics.....:)

For sure... :) Oh and Marta wants to go shopping in Sedona Az she heard that shopping there was great... hmmmm. She is even taking an empty suit case with us...

Sedona is beautiful... many specialty shops and good places to eat. Some feel it is a bit "artsy fartsy", but it really is a great place to wander around... :)

Now, that's my kind of packing!

Spring for the helicopter. The burro train gets painful.

Yeah we have already planned the helicopter trip and the train observation trip out of Williams, Az. Cats. It's all planned out already, the only way to go...

EDIT: And I trust only my own *ss... :)

Sedona is beautiful....many specialty shops and good places to eat. Some feel it is a bit "artsy fartsy", but it really is a great place to wander around.....:)

Yes, we have heard that also, soooo we planned two days there...

Yes, we have heard that also, soooo we planned two days there...

:D

I love artsy fartsy!

Yes, we have heard that also, soooo we planned two days there...

Sedona is beautiful. I love looking at art there. Something else that is fun is to do some four-wheeling. If you are interested, look into the Pink Tours. They are a lot of fun, and there are different levels depending on your degree of adventure.

Have fun!

Yes JL, we are looking into Pink tours we were told about them, thanks.

Can one of the dog people maybe help this poor guy some more?

I just can't believe the rescue people weren't more specific.

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/dogs/dog-ate-towel-what-do-do-494971.html

You pretty much covered it Hheath, nothing any of us could do, sounds like the towel might be entwined around something internal. He needs to go to a vet. ASAP.

Talking about labs... I didn't see M recently... I hope he's okay down there in Aussie...

Thanks Unky... been MIA for a while I know :rolleyes:

Life has thrown a few twists and turns in the way lately but everything's good , I'll be back as soon as I can :)

Hi to all until I get some more time to come back :cool:

M you cheeky bugger, I was just getting ready for bed, and I saw you posted!

Come back soon! We all miss you!! Xox

M! M!

Am I dreaming?

If I am, don't wake me!

M's here!

I miss you M! It's not the same without you. I'm getting into more trouble than usual, being naughty. Without you here to make me behave, it's all gone to poo in a hand basket.

Apparently you're my conscience. That little annoying voice that tells me to be good.

You've been slacking lately conscience. ;)

Ha Ha :)

Well I have to admit I miss you guys , Bella your in charge of keeping Alty out of trouble for a while LOL ;)

Thanks Unky .................. been MIA for a while I know :rolleyes:

Life has thrown a few twists and turns in the way lately but everything's good , I'll be back as soon as I can :)

Hi to all until I get some more time to come back :cool:

Very glad to see you my 'friend for me'

Oh Carp, that's not going to go over so well... but yea I'll give 'er my best. Come back soon, I don't know how much longer I can behave!

Oh Carp, that's not going to go over so well... but yea I'll give 'er my best. Come back soon, I don't know how much longer I can behave!

It's really easy Bella , you just need to make her think she's winning ;) ::running away::


Hey stringer , I hope you enjoy your trip (yeah I know , I been watching ) ;)


:confused: Hey! where's all my green boxes gone :confused:

Oh you missed all the fun M. Changes. Big time. Just wait till you get back!

It's really easy Bella , you just need to make her think she's winning ;) ::running away::


Hey stringer , I hope you enjoy your trip (yeah I know , I been watching ) ;)


:confused: Hey!!! , where's all my green boxes gone :confused:

I intend to bud, stick around some K?

It's really easy Bella , you just need to make her think she's winning ::running away::

Hey! I don't think I'm winning. I am winning!

Aren't I?

Bad puppy! You can run, but you can't hide. ;)

Its 730am here,are people getting up or going to bed?

its 730am here,are people getting up or going to bed?

I should be going to bed. It's 12:25am for me.

It's almost 3:30 am here, going to bed...

Morning Red, talk to you later today ;)

I always find it weird when people say goodnight, and I'm still here when they come back to say good morning. :(

Night night guys.

Time for my morning gallon of coffee and smoke.

Well it's 4.30pm here , Beer time :)

Goodnite ladies :)

I always find it weird when people say goodnight, and I'm still here when they come back to say good morning. :(


Happens to me all to often,that's when I realise I've been on line for 10 hours or more,if I'm still here when you get up,slap me!

Nighty night M and bella.

Ok really got to go , have a good day red :)

LOL!

Why do I have a feeling I'll be saying good morning to you as you're saying goodnight?

WT red ;)

Ok really gotta go , have a good day red :)

M, this is the WT, because the WTT is no more. :(

You've been gone too long. Lots of changes. More to come.

I see you signed up for the away mission alty...

Not many volunteers at the moment.

I'm not computer savvy,so I thought id give it a go for all us eejits who don't have a clue about finding the way around a site.

Plus I figure,might as well be part of the solution,if the new skin is on the way at least I can say I gave it a good shot.

Ya, I signed up because I figured out of everyone here, I'd be the most lost if it's not user friendly. ;)

Also, I'm the one that hated it the most, so it would be nice to be part of the solution to fix it, especially if eventually that's the only skin we'll have. :(

Okay, this chicky is getting tired. Also, hubby is home. :)

Night Red. I'll see you in around 8 hours. ;)

Night alty...

Hey M! There you are! Glad you're okay :)

Have a nice trip Stringer! :)

Ok, today was this math competition, and I feel I've got more marks than last year, even if there are still some problems I was stumped. I'll surely be posting them in the mathematics section of AMHD in some days.

How do you feel unky?

Not just that you did well,but about competing?

How did the other people feel it went.

Are you a Kinesthetic learner unky?

I ask as you talk in terms of 'feeling'...

Well, I'm pretty confident. I know I did one silly mistake though... the question was worth 3 marks. Anyway, I just compared the answers I think are correct (90% sure they are correct) with my results of last year, and I can see that I did

9 correct on the first 10 questions,
3 correct on the next 10,
3 correct on the last 10.

This year, I think Ill get:
9 correct/10 (the silly mistake)
8/10
4/10

The last ones still being the toughest. XD
But I like problem solving, it keeps me entertained to the same level as some games :)

I sometimes equate my way of problem solving to a pin ball machine...

I flick the problem (the ball) and hit off the obstacles,eventually ill get the jackpot and find a solution.

are you a Kinesthetic learner unky?

I ask as you talk in terms of 'feeling'...

Ok, I had to Google this :o
I looked on wikipedia and I think I can learn in all of the four ways without much difficulty.


1. visual learners;
2. auditory learners;
3. reading/writing-preference learners;
4. kinesthetic learners or tactile learners.

So... I guess yes then :)

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/womens-health/possible-could-pregnant-495074.html

Unky,I don't think there's many around,can you have a look at this a see have I read it correctly.

Does she think she can get pregnant from sperm in her mouth or swallowing it?

Another one again? Ok, I'll take a look...

Another one again? Ok, I'll take a look...


Thanks unky,I decided to change tactics and advice on the off chance she was not telling the whole truth...

Even my 9 year old has the basics of how babies are made... im thinking the op is not giving the full story.

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/womens-health/possible-could-pregnant-495074.html

unky,i dont think theres many around,can you have a look at this a see have i read it correctly.

does she think she can get pregnant from sperm in her mouth or swallowing it?

I am wondering how truthful she is being about what occurred. Big difference between licking moisture off the tip of her finger and there 'not being enough to swallow'. :rolleyes:

Well, I just don't understand oral sex...

Anyway, she doesn't know the basics of sex and says that she's being treated like a baby... I think that she most certainly is in her mind :p

Hey Cat! :)

(copied from psychic stickie)

Red, I know this wasn't meant to be funny but I am laughing at the image it brought up in my mind.

We aren't psychic but our Stickie is. :D

Hey Cat! :)

Hi Unky and Red. :)

Red, I know this wasn't meant to be funny but I am laughing at the image it brought up in my mind.

We aren't psychic but our Stickie is. :D

Oh don't say that cat,I dread the thought of someone asking to speak to 'stickie'...

Where is everyone?? Hellloooo!!

Well, I just don't understand oral sex...

I have so much to say here, but will hold back.

By the way, its not "wrong" to not understand it... I'm not making fun of that.

Hell... I was with one lover almost 6 years before I understood some things that worked for her orally that made it a sure fire win every time instead of often.

But some just don't like it or like the idea. And there's nothing wrong with that.

It might limit you, but its not all there is.

As for the post in question... sigh... she needs to educate herself for her own health.

Where is everyone??? Hellloooo!!??!!

Howdy.

If you don't understand oral sex, then you probably would not understand aural sex either. My partner at the time would have an orgasm just by me saying a few words. She did it like 10x in a row.

I'm not as responsive as your past girl to words... but I can tell ja this much... my ear lobes are hard wired to an orgasm. Bite, tug, and pull... my ears and neck are the key to me. Just the truth.

The brain is amazing and complex and frustrating.

KP, let me whisper sweet nothings into your ear. I may go for a nibble or two. :)

Those horny dutch b@5tards have it right.

I just ate an english muffin with nutella.

Da bomb.

Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't a rusk with hail.

Don't care. Yummy stuff.

Did you say Nutella?

The only thing I put Nutella on is a spoon, and than straight into my mouth. YUMMY!!

Did you say Nutella?

I want to be reincarnated as your spoon.

i wanna be reincarnated as your spoon.

Made me smile. Needed that. :)

KP dear, if you were my spoon I would keep you in my mouth all day long and never stop licking you.

That really sounded hot when it was in my head. Not so much when written down. :o

Okay... seems like I'll have to learn this when the time comes...

Sup unky, how you doing? :)

Hi Bear, I'm using the new skin right now. I'm trying to suggest some changes to make the skin better.

Red, Alty are still here too I think.

Oh reet, testing found many bugs and made many suggestions?

Hi red hi alty, if your still here

Hey Bear, How goes it? I'm lost in the new forum. Shh don't tell anyone, but I snuk back to the old skin, because I couldn't find the chat threads. SO if you don't hear back from me, it's because I'm lost some where in cyber space ;)

Some bugs, made some suggestions too. 5 threads I made up to now.

How about you? Your leg is OK now?

Hey bella, its going, so that's something right :)

How about you? hope things are going well :)

Oh things are going good here too. Trying to keep busy, so I don' drive myself crazy.

So this is where you ran Bella!

Don't worry, I won't tell ;)

But this conversation never took place, okay? :eek:

OK! Lol. I don't think I can get used to the new skin :(

It's getting a little faster on loading threads. On loading topics though, that's another story...

And I still think there is much more that can be done to improve the new skin...

Having trouble getting around?

Just a little bit,thought id take a break from ff for a while.

There is a time delay on posts it's a lot confusing,little communication with everyone,not are fault just the way the ff skin is at the moment.

It last post I could see in the castle was dated the 3 of August,could not find peeves,could not find anyone.

On the plus side,I logged in as a new member as had a blast going around the site... easier for a new member then al old member.

Trying to move merge or do anything much in a thread is a bit of a nightmare.

I have 19 threads to respond to in v2 as we speak.

The new are some really good new features in ff,but the learning curve is steep.

Going to chill in v2 for a while.

When you say 'we' you really mean 'you' don't you, with a little help from B of course :D

A picture of the finished living room would be good, but I think a picture of you in your tight jeans would be better ;)

Oh cat,I feel like a kid... its so good to be in touch with people.

Bloody hell you'd swear I was a hermit!

Its lonely in ff... so very lonely,no craic no banter,its all business in ff.

I like that the discussion threads are part of the main search, but even browsing for the discussions is confusing.

I did come across a great post in ff,yonkers old.

The op was looking for manswers,advice on men... thought it was a quirky title for a post.

I know ff stands for fat free, but what's the reasoning behind calling it fat free, is it because they've cut things out so its like an AMHD lite?

I could only find old discussions and no new posts in member discussions..

At one stage KBC asked unky if he was in the right test ff.. and I thought oh hell I bet I'm in the wrong bloody place.

But since I was still lost I kept going.

I wonder if we are each in our own little mazes?

I am so close to adding 'watchout for minotaurs' to my signature.

I don't have any skinny jeans, that's a good thing :D

Does this mean I can't post in ff?

Hey cat, good to see you :)

Millions of computer genius's wetting themselves at our attempts!

hey cat, good to see ya :)

Good to see you too, Bear. :)

Red when you said your 'back in the castle' had you been somewhere, when catching up it seemed like you were still here updating us with painting updates :)

The ff is in test mode and not all the threads are updated,its difficult to see who's online or 'find 'anyone.

In a way it was like a new amhd with a few of the same members stumbling into each other when the time frame caught up.

I was here,but I was'nt here!

Don't know how else to explain it.

In that twilight state of being awake and not :D

Either that or you were in the spirit world

I got a reddie in ff from an old post,my first thought was ,oh that's interesting how it shows up,wonder if I can get another one!

I actually asked kbc to give me one and then greenie it to see if he could and how it would show on the dashboard.

Hello all.

I have come up with a brilliant plan... to get me kicked out of med school. But it's also going to be super duper awesome.

This is what I do in my spare time.

That's a good idea red, you've got to test these things :)

Hey sneezy, why would you want to get kick out of med school?

Hello all.

Brillent and cunning plans should always be considered with a sausage sandwich and tea...

Think it's the sausage that get the creative juices going.:rolleyes:

thats a good idea red, youve gotta test these things :)

hey sneezy, why would you want to get kick out of med school?

Good question. You see, it's not really about med school, per se. I could always find another med school. Life's not about successes and triumphs, it's about making memories. This event, that I have created, will sear the memory of student, faculty member, and parents visiting... and it will be epic.

Alty knows about this plan. I have requested the aid of my girlfriend for help... as I need a partner for this.

If she doesn't leave me after hearing about this plan, or if she's willing to follow through, I think I may have a keeper.

You like a bit of sausage do you red ;)


Fair play sneezy, just thinking if you get 'kicked' out others are less likely to take you in you know?

Nah, with my charm and beauty, I will lure those suckers in to take my $280,000 in tuition.

Sausage. I'd kill for some good german sausage.

Sneezy, you're too bored. Time to do something creative. Take up knitting. :)

Nah, with my charm and beauty, I will lure those suckers in to take my $280,000 in tuition.

Fair enough, so are you going to tell us what this oh so masterful plan is or not :D

Hi Alty :)

My plan requires a child leash, a football helmet, and me throwing a wild temper tantrum as I receive my white coat. I will throw myself on the ground, start pounding my fist on the ground while yelling, "No touch me dere!"... and then, my girlfriend will tell everyone, "It's ok. He'll tire out soon enough," with a smile...

I think our ideas of awesome may differ :D

No worries, good luck pulling it off :)

Hello bear, nice to see you again.

I had a friend who wanted to leave lasting memories for his pals and tutors at university Sneezy. In the dead of night, he and some mates completely dismanted a car. Transported all the pieces to the roof and rebuilt it. Wish I'd been there to see them all scratching their heads as to how a car got on the roof lol.

Any experts or wise bods please tell me if I handles this wrong: (and is it only me who finds Allie's attitude a tad difficult?)

Hey QP, nice to see you again as well :)

How you doing?

I'm not exactly an authority on any kind of relationship issues so my input wouldn't really be helpful in anyway, but for all it counts I think you did good :)

Im not an expert in that forum but you may have crossed the line a little. And the respondent became defensive. Unless the post was edited. They did make statements not to mistreat the other person from the onset. When typing things out its easily misunderstood. We have nothing but the written word and no expression to go with it. Sometimes it's a fine line to walk. I myself have been misunderstood. So I can understand the respondents attitude. It doesn't make it right but from what Im seeing it wasn't really wrong in the first place. Just my opinion.

I made myself a pair of ears and a collar, this week. They're pretty, and I love them.

Ok thanks for that. Maybe I took some of her comments a little too literally, but I could just imagine an impressionable 16 year old reading it and thinking it's OK to press for sex after someone says no. I think my back was probably still up because I disagreed with things on another thread that this person contributed to. Will take a deep breath before wading in next time. :)

I'm good thank you bear. I had that great English classic, eggs, chips and ham for supper. :) How are you?

It happens to all of us. Don't sweat it. Also give it a chance so others can weigh in also. Don't just rely on my opinion. I look through off color glasses. Lol

I'm good thankyou bear. I had that great English classic, eggs, chips and ham for supper. :) How are you?

Ooo haven't had that in a while

Ill have to nip out for some eggs tomorrow, so I can make that for my tea tomorrow :D

I'm all right thanks QP, things to moan about here and there, but who hasn't right :)

Well I hope all the niggles that you could moan about sort themselves out OK. Night night bear.

Cheers :)

Night QP, sleep well :)

I had that great English classic, eggs, chips and ham for supper. :)


Yum... I have found myself partial to a good 'ole beans on toast supper now and then... :)

Kind of.

kinda.

For an early halloween costume? Or costume party?

I gave up Unky. I can't handle it. It literally makes my head hurt. It's too busy, it's not user friendly and the way it's set up sets off my vertigo. Not good.

I go on for a bit each day, but I can't do more than that.

Once it's here to stay, I'm gone. A lot of other people feel the same way. Sadly I think it's going to be the death of the site. I'd bet money on that.

Try to remember that it is a work in progress. And your voice is counting to make it right. Don't give up on it entirely until the final product and then make your decision. We don't really know what it is going to look like but at least they are giving us the chance to review it first.

sure.

The bold and fearless kilkenny hurling team are playing cork in the all ireland semi final today,WHEN they win the semi we will go through to the final to win 5 titles in a row... history books here we come.

Brace yourself guys and gals its going to be clash of the ash.

Here's a clip of the cats in action,the black and amber are our boys.

Its only in recent years helmets became compulsory,if you can imagine ice hockey playing on grass with no body protection and you will get the idea.

You can't beat the irish for a good battle!

Who wears protection? I thought that was only for those american wusses, to protect their pretty faces :D

When the americanos get here your dead meat! :eek:

But never fear,you only need a plastered built like a brickhouse reared on rashers and guinness red haired irish man to fight for your life...

Hmmm,now,where to find one of those:rolleyes:

Oh no they might make me wear body armour :D

I have to admit I've never seen hurling before. It looks like a lot of rules go with that one. A lot going on in the field. Looks way more exciting then football (what we call soccer here). Good Luck on your team.

It's a fantastic game califdadof,fast pace,quick scoring, lots of play,the ref is lets play continue.

The rules are simple.

The GAA run the hurling,none of the hurlers get paid,but are committed to training and the game.

The revenue the games pull in is huge,but the players don't get a penny.

Its an honor to play for your county.

Kilkenny have the best team in years in ireland,difficult to beat,and every county is hungry to get the CUP.

That's an even better reason to like it. Here (usa) there are too many primadonnas that get way too much money for what they do and have taken the fun out of the sport for the average American family. They have lost dedication to the game to worship the other green god called money. To take an average family to a professional game is almost the same as going to Disneyland for the money.

The average price of a ticket to a match is 45 euro about 60 dollars,that includes food.

There is a huge canteen that serves hot and cold food and several bars in an state of the art sports stadium.

Whatever faults ireland has,it favours its sports events and gives everyone one a chance for a great day out.

The down side is tickets are sold out within minutes of going on sale and there is only a certain amount per county.

I'm not part of the group testing it out, but have gone on on my own several times since it showed up. Have used a number of forums over the years and I find it too busy as well. I think part of it is simply that it is a change and not what I am used to... time will tell.

Perhaps part of the problem is that there is so much change... maybe there should be just "tweaks" here and there to accomplish the goals instead of throwing out the old completely.

Going to run my own unqualified analysis with outside new users (my kids!) and see what they think. I'll have them go on with my name and see how they navigate the site and what their feed back is. Since they would not be used to the current skin, they won't have anything to compare it to and, therefore, already have that comfort zone.

I just went on, went into settings and changed it to ff style and couldn't get out, there were no options to change it back until one of my threads id subscribed to were updated so I could get out otherwise I was stuck on the inbox menu for ever!

That is a top rate idea, D, letting your kids navigate. Feedback should be interesting. I am reserving judgment so no one hears my thoughts on new skin. I am sitting bck and tentatively examining everyone's input. I am sure everything will work out fine; admin seems to be working with everyone's ideas. Some of us may be old codgers who can't accept change.

Red I see what you mean about being separated, having trouble navigating around from what I'm used to on the v2 skin

The other thing that might not be considered is that not all users come here via a computer connection. Some are accessing the site through their phones. Im not even sure that is being considered at this time.

Good point! I'll have some of the kids try that out as well and see what the difference may be and get some feed back.

It's really annoying when you need to manually get to the last unread post, which of course is not even marked here... :(

Hello everyone! :)

Nice costume hheath!

I don't know if anyone else found they got headachy on the ff skin?

I did.

Thought it was too bright,busy,my eyes had a hard time with all the options on the screen.

Although I like the dashboard/alerts and topics.

The major things I don't quite like is the difficulty in finding a particular post, and the time it takes to load a page, as compared to the v2 skin.

Yea, id second this from the times I've tried out the ff skin

oh nice, you say you made those, even better :)

they deffinetly suit you :D

Thank you. I'm in love with my collar. The ears could be better, but it's the materials I had available.

thank you. i'm in love with my collar. the ears could be better, but it's the materials i had available.

fair play to you they look really good, I can see why you'd be pleased with the collar :)

only thing I can h=think of with the ears is a bit of pink fabric a bit smaller that the white so its like the inside of the ear is you know what I mean :)

only thing I've tried to make recently is an origami wombat, but it didn't turn out so well :(

Fortunately, since I got subscribed here from the v2, I'm getting notifications for this thread!

But I still cannot distinguish at a glance the unread/read posts...

This thread is almost done. Only 30-some more posts, to go.

They were my first set of ears. When I have better supplies, I'll be able to make a better pair. I made them as much so I would have ears, as so I could figure out if I COULD make them.

Hey red can you see this :D

No worries, they looked awesome anyhoo :D

I guess you were sent to a random page in the thread Red...

I'm still here, just unseen from the ffStyle because there is not the online/offline feature yet.

Now, since Bear posted, and there is no edit button, 30 posts left instead of 31...

same here red

heath, maybe a tail and paws next? :)

A tail, yes. But probably not paws.

When I have the money, I'll get the materials to make better ears, and a matching tail.

It's fun to finish off threads, so I'm doing my part.

The castle has been so quiet lately. I was surprised to see so many people here. :)

Anyone want to take a stab at writing up a new castle/cafe/love boat/home for the curious?

We went to an exposition today about the Naval Battle between the French and the British which occurred in 1810. Well, it wasn't that grand as it sounded.

Gah! No quote button either...

Who won?

At that time, the French won the battle. They were already on the island and so, they had an advantage.

Later, in 1813 I think, the British came back, this time placing an attack from the North of the island instead of the South East like previously (the post was there then). There were some traitors on the island which gave away the French and the British took control of the island, until it 1964, where the island got it's independence.
