Tea is not to my taste. It is unfortunate. ;-) Adjusting to the local custom of Maghrebi (a sweet, spearmint flavoured green tea) is a greater challenge than was expected.

Connectivity issues with the outside world continue, regrettably, but I am loathe to declare a winner yet. So please do continue. :-) 

I tried Rooiboos(sp) tea and it was interesting, not enough to make me drink it regularly but different than the normal stuff.

I've been on an 80K connection for the past 2 weeks, it's PAINFULLY slow compared to my normal 400K connection!! Add to that my wife uses her tablet on the same 80K connection and webpages won't load before they time out!!

Well if Sir Rodney

Well if Sir Rodney insists...

 

I spent an hour this morning making a touch board with a bunch of 4 and 5 year olds.  They didn't seem to grasp the concept of inside voice.

They were using them when I got there.  Then again, they were learning how to write their names.  Not at all exciting.  I had the exciting stuff.  Pompoms.  Plastic Easter eggs.  Glittery fabric.  And more.

If I don't have caffeine, I

If I don't have caffeine, I can't power my eyes. Not enough for them to open outwards anyway. An injury will work - although it's noisier *notice thread title*

I think you're going to be the topic of allegatiermconversation, Mr Fing. I really really do ;) If there is anything more flattering than that, I can't think of it. Except for winning a TLPTPW thread of course. Congratulations :)

 I love pompoms! I don't have enough - I'm not even sure it's possible to have enough *pause for anxiety attack over pompoms* or touch boards either but speaking of noses, I'm not going to find it as easy as usual to leave mine lying about the boards for people to trip over for awhile :( It's making me feel quite miserable, so instead of doing that - I'm installing a big hug here instead

HUG

Just walk into it whenever you need one :) There's plenty to go round!

Please wait here. Further instructions could pile up at any time. Thank you.

I picked up some tea for Sir Rodney at Queen Annie's tea store and we can probably heat up some water on Mikey's video cards and CPU's Cool

Probably, they are certainly keeping the electric meter spinning anyway!!

I like some teas but not all teas, but I drink coffee every day. I drink a couple cups of coffee in the morning and a couple more after dinner. I drink one cup of regular and one decaf in the morning and then I drink flavored regular coffee at night.

I had forgotten how good it was to stand on the podium, the view is breathtaking!

Well step down Mikey.  You've had the podium long enough.  It's time for the rightful heir to step up.
