I have been wondering for awhile now too??
Where is the guy who used to ask trivia, then tell people they are minus one point for forming their sentence into a question???
I never thought I’d say this but....
DAM, I miss him to bits!!!!!
I remember one time Yvonne wandered into the room and she thought she was nuts and he gave her something like -1 point for calling herself nuts !!!!! ?
(she gave him a good thrashing though it was soooo funny.)??????????????????
Could someone go find this guy???
His name I think was something to do with English literature??? Or someone’s mom or something.????
Damn....
he would nail me for all these question marks...?
-10.
At least.
Do you mind if I just grab an armadillo and some coffee?

It's always nice to pop in and see this crazy old thread still going strong.
Welcome to all the new Roomies, I'm sorry that I don't know you very well, or, indeed, at all in many cases.
Tidgy is doing great, still an enormously arrogant little madame, but she's still my spoilt darling little girl.
The minx.

Oh, and wifey's okay, too, I should mention.

Only until 1754 BC, and again from 1681 til 879 BC, so no.
-6.3.
I shall ignore this completely and I am most unconcerned about the answer. Nice to finally meet you Adam, my name is Kris. Not that you would be concerned either. Thank you for starting my favorite room.

Anyway, I'm rather afraid that I come bearing some really awful news.
I discovered today that dearest Sabine, member Bee62 here, and a valued Roommate and close friend died suddenly on the 6th of July. Her partner has asked me to pass this information on to her friends on TFF.
I will never forget the night-flights we did as bats here in this Cold Dark place, the TORTOISE exchanges at Christmas, her memes and her humour.
We stayed friends after I left the forum and communicated often and, though we never met, I consider her among my best friends. She sent me huge Christmas hampers from Germany filled with goodies we can't get here in Morocco, including supplements for the Tidgemeister and I will so much miss her kindness, generosity and beautiful singing voice.
Goodbye, my dear Little Bee, I will miss you so much.

Jolly nice to meet you, sir. Ignore away and act unconcerned. It's big and it's clever. :) I'm an expert at it, as I am at many trivial and pointless things.
Still, I'm not in my usual high spirits today, so forgive me.

this is very sad news that you bare... Sabine was my tortoise partner in the last Christmas exchange that we did. I think of her often. We all wondered .

It’s good that you let us know and I’m glad that you , wifey, and tidgy are well.. Stay safe Adam. And I very sorry for the loss of your friend.

Hi everyone I'm just quickly checking in after what has been a very difficult month + for me.
Sadly my brother died on 7th May.
He sailed through his treatment but a week after he finished that he was killed by a blood clot.
We are all devastated to have lost him so soon to something that may have been unavoidable.
We know we would have lost him eventually bit we all thought we would soon be able to spend time which covid has robbed us of because we had to stay away from him.
It is some consolation that he died quickly and that he didn't have to go through a slow decline which the brain tumour would have eventually caused but I still can't quite believe he's gone.
We were only able to hold his funeral yesterday so everything is still quite raw, but I will be back popping in more often soon.
I hope you are all well and happy and I'll see you all soon.
Take care x
I'm so sorry to hear this Lyn.
What a rotten year this is.

Thank you, Adam, for letting us know. This is difficult news to hear, and I'm sure it has not been easy news to convey. Bee was just awesome... So vibrant, so kind, so passionate. I will miss her (and her singing) dearly. I already do.

Warmest thoughts and best wishes to you, Adam, as well as wifey and Tidgy. This Cold Dark Room you started has helped pull a number of us through some rough patches, even in your absence, and we would love to have you back.

Off course, if any or all of that was too mushy, just ignore it. We'll just sit here for a while.

-Anne
