Ixamyakxim: Do you need Red Alert to play? I tend to burn out quickly on RTS games but I always sort of regret not having tried RA (or maybe it was RA2?).
You get the game files for free

Oops, did I forget to tell you I installed that?

*Knocks on Endre's door then gives him a big hug when he answers, soaking him as well.*

I hope you are doing well, my lovely Mr Endre? I will be calling it a night now, so sadly I can't stay and chat, but I hope you have a nice rest of the day. And please try to keep the place clean while you are in charge. :-)

*another big hug*

Still Lost Vikings? I love that game but I'm real bad at it. ;)

EndreWhiteMane: Still Lost Vikings? I love that game but I'm real bad at it. ;)
Yep. Trying to finish it off now. It starts off easy, but gets much, much harder.
Makes me wonder what they came up with for the sequel.

Have you ever played Lemmings?
I'm kind of glad it's not available for pc :P
Lovely game... starts off nice and easy... but somewhere along the line it gets a bit annoying...

..oh and good morning! ... not awake yet...

Lemmings can be played on most anything. :-)

Edit: Good night all.

Good morning. =)

No, never played it. It didn't appeal to me for some reason, so I always skipped it.
Good morning / evening, hope all is well with all of you.

A long day of rain yesterday, amazing how the earth can continue to absorb all this water. Actually it's not absorbing it that well by now, sinkholes have halted trains, there are flooded roads everywhere and more and more traffic lights were out. The roads dept blame power outages for that, not rain, and vandals stealing the copper cables. Apparently, when one of them goes out because of a power outage, they have to call in the 'relevant department' and it takes nearly 24 hrs to reset. They the power goes again, or the vandals appear..

In a bid to stop this endless cycle, they installed UPS's at all trafflc lights, and were surprised when they were all stolen. Now they are encasing them in armour, which, they say, will need explosives to open. Should be interesting. ;-)

I fervently hope that the worst drought-stricken parts of the country are getting some of this rain.

Fortunately I wasn't out on the roads. Made a big pot of vegetable soup, lots of crusty brown bread to go with it, and watched the rain falling. Lovely. :-)

ddickinson: .

I am doing okay with my recovery, it is a long process sadly, but things seem to be on the up finally. And thank you, my partner is indeed a very wonderful and caring person, someone I am so very lucky to have.

I read about your move. I see you have moved to Africa, that must be very interesting? I know that Africa has some stunning landscapes and cultures. I am glad to hear that Crow and the others have been here for you to talk to during those free night time sessions.

I hope you have had a wonderful day, and that everything is going wonderfully for you?
Hello dd, thanks so much for taking the time to reply. Glad to hear that you're on the mend, although it must be frustrating that it's taking so long.

Africa is indeed interesting, sometimes a little too interesting. ;-) I was born and raised here, so it's good to be home, despite the little frustrations and niggles. There is so much to love here, much to smile about. :-)

Hope your day went well also, and that you are sleeping peacefully.

superstande: Also, ZenWan... I'm late about two days, but thank you very much for Chet Baker, that was really awesome. I haven't listened to him much ever... And his life was quite... colourful... quite a wild one - did some wikipedia reading on him. Cheers!

So tired, too many things happening :) ... just making a easy-piecy today..
*serves everyone who wants, a heated from-the-freezer pizza with lotsa cheese, no other things*
Good morning, souper, always great to see you. Thank you so much for the pizza.. <adds hot chilies and olives>
Hope you are not feeling so tired today, and that you have a great day.

Glad you liked the music, Chet Baker is one of my favourite musicians. Indeed he had an 'ínteresting' life, to say the least.
I love jazz from that era, and it's great that you can find full albums on Youtube, for hours of wonderful listening.

Here's one I love..

Good morning. =)

Sounds like interesting might be an understatement, considering everything you just mentioned.
Feeling much better that you've been enjoying good food and rainfall without any of the extra craziness going on.

akhliber: Just another hello before I either get an early night's sleep or get sucked back into Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. I hope you all have a lovely evening (or whatever your time of day)!

*big hugs and waves all around*
Hello akhliber, hope that you and your little family all had / have a very happy birthday. :-)

Always a treat to see you, Crow, hope that you're feeling better, apart from game frustration.

Wish I could send you some of the rain that you so kindly sent me, I think we've had enough for a while, although personally I could watch rain falling for ever. But the trees have had enough, many are falling. :-(

Enjoy your evening, hope it's a happy one.

Likewise. =)

Just about back to normal here. Got a lot of multivitamin powder, that's been helping.
As for the frustration, I'm trying to be smarter about it. I've been killed about 30 times on the last level, so I called it a day and shut it off, rather than letting myself get angry about it.

My apologies. When the rain thing actually works, it tends to be rather heavy...

Insomnia is coming. That's a mood enhancer, was thinking it might not happen this year.
Beyond that, it's a normal quiet evening. No complaints.

Hopefully you can keep on enjoying things from a safe distance, having a pleasant day overall.
No floating away down the street, that's rule one. ;)
I've had 2 bags (not at once of course) of oranges and there doesn't seem to be any seeds. Weren't those full of those before? Are those nowadays genetically enhanced?
