Welcome to the olympics

[ROG]

You can gourge yourself on macdonalds. drinks lots of coca cola or is it pepsi,, have your pockets picked by some romanian gypsies coming by coach from Spain to give the event a bit of colour. This is of course after you"ve been frisked by a guy with 10 minutes training--probably a "team leader"--assuming that you"ve actually managed to reach your destination.

Just in case anyone cannot make head or tail of that, may I help?

You can gorge yourself on McDonald's, drinks lots of Coca-Cola (or is it Pepsi?) or have your pockets picked by some Romanian Gypsies, coming by coach from Spain to give the event a bit of colour. This is, of course, after you've been frisked by a guy with 10 minutes' training - probably a "team leader" - assuming that you've actually managed to reach your destination.

Tim--you just won me £10--I bet my mate that Tim would not be able to restrain himself, and be my first respondent. Many thanks--that will pay for the DM for a couple of weeks.
Are you competing this time or just spectating.

[Timothy]

Is the last bit of that a question?

I am delighted that you have a mate.

[ROG]

Yes--could you please correct it. Tim--glad to see we"re back online. I wasn"t offended by your correcting my prose and i"m sure that you can take a legpull.
A bit of repartee--have I spelt it correctly --keeps the brain working. Have my medical this week =so pray for me--i know that you"d miss me if they put me in an old folks home.

[ROG]

PS-and no I wouldn"t is not a funny answer.

[Sharpie]

GOOD luck WITH the medical ROG!!!

[Keef]

ROG - I've warned all the local Old Folks' Homes. You're safe.

Good luck with the medical. I hear Doc F has retired - where do you go now?

[ROG]

Sharpie--thanks--I may ask Keef to pretend that he"s me--might work.
Guess it"s always a worry for all of us--you never know.
Keef-I see peter O --helpfull chap if there"s any problem.--trust you"re ok--SND still ok-although a few have gorn to NW. Seems we still have to use atlas even when departing via the corridor.
