I've always said that.Oooops... is it a certain film???
I'm so dizzy![]()

Toto called, they want you to go back to the land of Oz.What have I been up to... been to Africa (amazing), totally consumed by work (sadly facing redundancy every day tho) and getting rejection after rejection for my novel - oh well, it's all part of the fun.
Wow, you're authoring? Cool! Best of luck to you! Keep at it. It can't be easy to write a novel like that. Just keep that determination - it's gonna take a lot to drag you away from it. That's not something that a hundred men or more could ever do. And keep blessing the rains down in Africa.![]()

Hey DM, welcome back.
Where in Africa did you go?
So Africa is like the Internet?There's a really different emphasis on what's important in life - family and friendship.
Hey DM, welcome back.
Where in Africa did you go?
The Gambia. Have you been? Wonderful people but VERY hot. They are having a big drive on education so spent some time at a school. The kids love you taking their pic cause they've never seen it done before, so if you take a pic and show them it they go wild with excitement. There's a really different emphasis on what's important in life - family and friendship. No-one has tv or anything like that - it's really special.![]()
I didn't have anyone to help me tie people to a comfy chair. My online world was devoid of pink and mischief too. I am thrilled. You made my day. I may have to break out "Out of Africa" and "Batman Returns" in honor of the occasion.
I'm so sorry for neglecting this site so shamefully...
Hello everyone (not sure I'm allowed to post this actually... a little leniency - pleeeeeeeeeeease?)
Hope everyone is well

I missed you so so much, dear heart.I didn't have anyone to help me tie people to a comfy chair. My online world was devoid of pink and mischief too. I am thrilled. You made my day. I may have to break out "Out of Africa" and "Batman Returns" in honor of the occasion.

Africa? The novel (damn silly publishers)? You have to keep catching us up! :hug:


I've been to Kenya courtesy of the US Navy. Beautiful beaches of pure white sand that looks like sugar. The people selling their wares on the beach were a trip. They loved to barter for our socks, hats, and t-shirts rather than be paid money.Hey DM, welcome back.

I've sadly never been to Africa (I had a couple of friends go this winter, though, but to different areas). Glad you had fun, though.
