Not too bad
The weather was fantastic. Went running a lot, ventured into Ikea for the first (and possibly last) time and ate a lot of falafel, baklava and yaki soba in the park.

Alt Q: Quantum Leap, MacGyver, Red Dwarf, Spitting Image.

Weather was fantastic?
Do you live in Arizona? Are you another incarnation of BatfishRoger?

Wipers have been on full slosh mode all day in rainy Leeds.

Ha!
No, I live in Ireland, so when I say fantastic it's relative. Saturday wasn't stellar but morning was good and the rain kept off. Today was just brilliant though, really bright and crisp, the kind of day I really look forward to in Autumn.

I love those days
I take a lot of my holidays in autumn, just to enjoy the crispness.

Ten days off coming up and I can't wait.

Where are you in Ireland?
It's a while since I've been over but I used to spend a lot of time there.

Where do you want to know?
Travelled a lot on CIE/IR. Maybe I should whisper this but I'm a bit of a train travel enthusiast. So I've ridden on all the lines in Ireland.

Right
so you've almost certainly seen more of the country than I have. Good way to see a country though, except you probably didn't make it to the North West did you?

Sligo?
That's a bit North West.

And my little hobby has taken me to LA, and Detroit, but Sligo was the scariest...

Sligo!
You didn't fall foul of the Tubbercurry youth mafia did you?

We got into a pub that didn't like us
I've taken photos of the old railway depot in Watts, not long after the Rodney King business.

Sligo, seriously, is the scariest place I've ever been.

Oh excellent,
the good side.

Are you the only genuine newbie in a while?

You talkin' to me?
I'm no newbie...

If you're talking to Zozimus - he/she/it is a newbie but he/she/it seems sound.

Voted in by the very Ol' Skool although he/she/it could be Workboresme/Edmund/Bert.

But I don't think so.

Noo, I was attempting to reply to Zozimus.
He/she/it does seem perfectly sound.

Thank you for the vote of confidence
and belated happy birthday to you.

I was accused of being Bert at first but BobbyPires and I are cool now.

Yes, yes we are.

Do we have the authority to do this?
Does the Scouse lass not have to vet all newcomers like Ellis Island, to ensure that they're not someone she doesn't like?

I know
Roota has yet to say yay or nay. Ages ago she mentioned something to the effect that judgment was pending but I haven't heard anything since. Maybe she's biding her time, waiting for cracks to appear.

Hello Mr Alexander
Maimed any hands recently?
(, Sun 26 Sep 2010, 21:28, Reply)
My hand maiming days are over.
Mainly because I sprained both of my wrists somewhat horribly giving Big Eric and his cellmate a 'downhill racer' during my spell inside at the taxpayer's expense. I still haven't recovered; the ganglions are horendous so I've called a halt to all medical practitionary for now.

leeds was clearly just unlucky

Apparently just the airport
La TD has been out with her friend today in central Leeds and it was fine.

I've driven four 737's (Bradford-Airport)today in the rain.

Isn't there a guy in a HHGTTG book that gets followed around by rain? Maybe that's me.

i think there was a mr man, too

Gutted.
It's been bone-dry here in the Spen valley.

See above
We're paying for this Airport (I assume you live in West Yorkshire) and it has it's very own micro-climate.

Yes, I live pretty much bang in the middle.
Ironically, it's the only bit that's impossible to get to by train.

All was nice in Tod today too.

It's been OK up here all weekend.
Up until about an hour ago, when it started pissing down.

Well I'm sure I'm happy for you all.
The Airport Stazi get cross when we have a smoke next to the bus-stops so I've had four smoke breaks in the rain at the Airport.

I'm on 15's for the rest of the week so I can just get my nicotine fix second hand from the polyester shellsuits getting aboard.
