It's Spooky In Here!

What's the name of that place where Joni Mitchell lives, Sunny?? I cleaned apartment windows there two autumns ago.. never did catch up with Joni tho.. spent most of my time in BC in a nice bar in Vancouver known as the Two Parrots.. it was frequented mostly by czech hustlers, queens, asian tourists who had gotten lost and pilots getting pissed between flights. Where is your island?

I am a newbie and have no idea whether this will post or not. Let me know?

yep yopu're in here sunny, though it seems to be pissing with rain!

pesnikinja says: GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

pesnikinja says: "Im an oldie, and i cant bloody post at all grrrrrrrr"

Is this a display of territoriality? Or a rather beastly greeting?

Neither sunny, poor Liana is suffering from frustration over-load!

It is beautifully sunny here! Hello! You seem to be posting just fine. I have never been to this group before. What do we do? Talk about writing? Shoot the breeze? Discuss the weather?

pesnikinja says: im an editor you know, i DEMAND my right to post on the forums!!!! Let me speak to my agent!!!!

pesnikinja says: i am definitely off before i explode with frustration

pesnikinja says: i am definitely off before i explode with frustration pesnikinja says: ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Where are you sunny?

What we do is shoot the techie!

In the beautiful back of beyond in Canada. You?

AAH you were probably referring to my dissapearing act. Well, I left thinking you had but on the off chance that you hadn't I checked back and voila, there you are. Shall we start over? Hello!

England, near London. We got the WHOLE forum to ourselves! We can do what we want! Yippee! 'I'm a troll fol de roll......'

Hello! I hale from BC in Canada on a beautiful little island. Are you m or f or is that allowed to be known. I am f, have two children a husband, two dogs and I am sitting in my dark dungeony basement on Mother's Day, is there something wrong with that?

Yes there is, it isn't Mother's Day.

I guess it would seem odd, it is Mother's Day here though. Are you a writer? author?

I'm a 'M' got 2 kids and a dog, sorry I mean a wife!

Nasty!!! I thought you must be a m. So good my f intuition is still active. Have you been accessing this discussion group awhile? I just read about it in Writer's Digest. And as I have nothing better to do on a sunny day, here I am. Actually I was looking forward to connecting with other writers and discussing.........life.

Well there are those here that would say neither in answer to your last question, but I have been known to scribble the odd ode.

I can never post from work. I can read most of the site, including the boards, but it's just too slow to let me post. I've also been trying to access the site all evening.

The site is suffering from cardiac arrest this evening, let's hope the paramedics arrive before it becomes terminal.

well here I am....and I've been trying off and on most of the day, actually...anyhoo, for the first time since about 7pm CET I can post. TA DAAAA!

British Columbia is a great place. I was only there once, a LONG time ago, but I remember it fondly. And everyone who has ever been there that I know has been impressed..

Couldn't get in the site for awhile there. Am now enjoying the sunshine, gardening outside. Of course, avoidance is the key word here so thought I would check in with you chaps. If this site does this all the time I can understand why you get frustrated. Justin where are you from?

oops Justyn!

WEll no one has answered in a while so I am off to haul bark mulch. Hope everyone has a great day.

Why does this site keep crashing? Just a test post.

This site went down at 2pm yesterday I had just posted which took me an hour to write and I lost it all. I don't usually grumble but this time I was really cross as its becoming a joke just lately its always doing it. Hi Sunny and welcome yes thats what we do on here shoot the breeze, long time since I'v heard that>>> love it...

Hello Missi, Sunny and Jay! Sorry for all of this, I know it's frustrating. Our (supposed) Internet Servive Provider (BT) made some wacky changes to their systems which took us offline. I'm trying to keep on top of it all but I have been away for a few days. I have been assured that these gaps in service are not here to stay. I'll keep an eye out, too... It's even got me up EARLY ;-)

Hello, testing, one, two three..... High guys. We at the office are back on at ten thirty Monday morning but who knows how long it will last. Our ADSL service providers, Mistral, have informed us that those underachieving prats at BT have serious and intermittent problems with their ADSL infrastructure throughout the country. It has hit different areas at different times. This may explain why some of you lucky people have been able to access the threads and others have not. We hope that the service will be returned to normal as soon as possible but are ratrher at the mercy of the nice people from BT. Yours, the caring management.

I had total freeze-out yesterday - Sunday. Could get the Front Page and nothing else. We did all we could to get back up and running but the problems were elsewhere. Now that people are getting in to work they are fixing things but it will be slow going. Believe me, we are doing all we can!

I always knew there was a good reason to live in Essex.
