Posted August 27, 2020 Hey peeps! I would like to be able to respond to things with “gasps in British”, but unfortunately I’m not British. 🤔 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Hey Swift! Don't worry about. Being able to 'gasps in British' costs a fortune in cucumber sandwiches, tea and crumpets. At least it does in England. Not sure what rates the rest have to pay. Guinness and deep fried Mars bars maybe. Edited August 27, 2020 by Fortune86 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 Ahh. I shall express my gratitude and slight surprise at such a revelation. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, crumpets, and toast with jam* @trystan, I mostly liked Orphan 55. I'm trying to find Spirit's South African site for her. It's going to be another hot and humid day. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 Good morning CPA! Hurricane Laura hit the Gulf Coast. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 I saw. As a really major storm, too. We were so lucky here to have hardly anything from it. All those people, and animals... Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 Swears incoherently in australian. Was this the hurricane that was like two merged together? Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 Yes, although Marco fizzled out while Laura strengthened so it was all just Laura. Storm surge went in a really long way. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 morning all. hot and yucky today, but then the weekend looks kinda nice. it better, since i'm off from work (it's my birfday on sunday ) 2 hours ago, Lagie said: @trystan, I mostly liked Orphan 55. I'm trying to find Spirit's South African site for her. i've seen enough scifi stuff that i should have known what Orphan 55 actually was... i'm pretty sure Spirit's episode was the Ghost Monument, actually. i really need to watch the most recent episode of one of my shows, it aired on the 19th, for some reason my DVR didn't record it, so i need to see if it's still on the CW's website... but i keep not doing that. i'm stuck in s4 of the Twilight Zone, because it's not on netflix, i watch it on my computer. but then i end up doing other things on my computer, so i don't watch it! (same with my CW show, too! LOL) hubby and younger daughter are off to see about a car for her, they're taking a test drive after dinner. hubby's found a car that has good mileage and a good price, but it's like a 1991 or something, and she says she doesn't want to drive a car that's older than mine and hubby's marriage! (come to think of it, i don't think i'd want to drive one of those either. we got married in 1994.) Share this post Link to post

Nope. Watched that one last night, and it's not. I'm going to check the Battle of thingie av thingie tonight. That's funny about the car. 1991 is old, though. Mine's a 1998 and it's ancient for this island (was originally bought here in 1998, one owner, low mileage - before I got it. ). One can no longer import cars that are more than ten years old here.

Posted August 27, 2020 oooohhhh... more toast! *nom nom* Afternoon CPAs! It's another hot one here... I suppose I should do some laundry ... soon.... *snags a brownie* Thanks Lagie! Share this post Link to post

The telepath attached to the machine that reminded me of the Great Machine in B5, and I think the return and defeat of Tim Shaw. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) ah right... *googles* "The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos" - and it's actually "Tzim-Sha" according to wiki. but yeah, i like Tim Shaw better edit: remember Nine's companion Adam? the little sh*t who stole future tech for his own selfish gain? i'm thinking of a Mimic pygmy for him, hence the line in my sig that i'm looking for a Mimic Edited August 27, 2020 by trystan Share this post Link to post
Posted August 27, 2020 hmmm... Sounds like an interesting show, one I've never heard of of, but not much of a surprise as I don't watch much tv Share this post Link to post

Hmm. Will see about mimic hunting then. It's worth the watch, @a_god_s. And there's years of it to catch up on if you decide you like it! Share this post Link to post

(Bonus brownies if you recognize the modified quote!) And it wasn't "The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos" after all. Now where do I look?
