I'm so rubbish, I didn't actually update this account when last time I was so generously treated to membership, almost a year ago! But having been granted a new 3-month grace period today, I'm determined to be more involved and active on here. Thankyou, mystery account-giver, be you friend or Poisson Avril!
I do miss this site. I miss the friendships forged in the fires...

What he said!
thequestion:
That's very close indeed. Are you free Saturday night? Some of us will be heading to The Ship. You still have my number right?
Hm, what is going on? I have been bought an account renewal? Is this a promotional ruse or does someone miss me? I've not been on here in a year and a half! But I must say, good week for freebies, I got given 3 free gins by a pub owner the other night seemingly out of the goodness of his heart. And a kind...

I didn't even notice you were inactive until The Question pointed it out in SGUK. he'd mentioned you wanted to come to the Brighton meet and came to see who you were. When I saw talk of a favourite subject of mine I couldn't resist and didn't even check the date. Glad you liked it, the Howards are fascinating and their history is well documented and easy to track down on the web. History and the local area are 2 of my favourite things to look at so when they come together like that I get hooked really easy.

When Creamy says we're living together I have to point out that it's not in the biblical sense.
At some point I'll have to put up photos of my beautiful new desk (see last entry for details ^^)
I actually built furniture myself, it was fantastic!
For my birthday weekend I went to visit my parents who presented me with an A4 Intuos3 graphics tablet, possibly the most wondrous thing I've ever owned! (aside from the desk, Mikael) I look forward to becoming...

Ah, there you are!!
Thanks for the 'add' m'dear! I was looking for your profile earlier but couldn't find it!! I still have your old profile (Teela) on my friends lists, hehe!
Wow, a fun time you've been having, and a belated happy b'day to you! What a coincidence that you were at Arundel castle - i drove past there on Friday twice on my way to a and back from a work meeting at our Hampshire office.
There's a nice pub in Arundel next to the river that we sometimes go to...the Black Rabbit I think it's called, or something. Gimmie a shout if you'd like a trip out there again one weekend! I need an excuse to get the Z4 out....(I'll mail you my contact details...).
Great news that you've had a positive breakthru with an appropriate. medication..sounds good! Positive also that you've come to a good arrangement with your debt management plan, but it saddens me that that brings with it a period of austerity for you. Likewise, If you fancy a night of champagne cocktails let me know...another thing for which i seek any excuse....
Home built furniture rules, how awesome are you!?
Living in a castle would be cool. I now live in a victorian asylum....hehe!
Anyways, spk soon
luff,
mark.

Oh God, geek moment coming on. It's the Duke of Norfolk. His first born is known as the Earl of Arundel until he inherits the senior title.
It's still the Howard family of Catherine Howard-Henry VIII fame. If you ever want something to illustrate just how ancient Britains nobility is that's it in a nut shell.
Arundel Castle is utterly beautiful and totally fake. Rebuilt in the 19th century after Cronwell had flattened the original back in the 17th. In a siege the current castle would be as much use as the first 2 little pigs houses.
Pointless history lesson over. Sorry about that, it's the sort of thing I can't resist talking about.

I have returned to SG, only to make the fatal error of beginning a new profile instead of updating my former one (known as Teela). This could make merry hell for me tracking everyone down again with their new names etc, and as well means I can't access my back-entries - some of which were like GOLD I tell thee!
