lovely soft C2 skins.

Oops! Not a good idea Caro.. That Carpet is starving! o.0

Didn't we have an Official AGC Freezer around here somewhere? I think we
used to store the troll and Naven parts leftover from the ...ahem...
experiments... in there. *Noddles off to investigate. brushing off cat

Nonono. Pink Bubbly is well known for its benefifial effects on the
Muse. A bit less benefifial to the spelling ability, mind.

Hmmm? Was it more obscure than my usual babble? *re-reads paragraph*

Pink Bubbly than you

Ah, but if you quibble about top-posting, what is there left?
Bottom-posting! Yeah!

*pats Emmel* Ah, I understand your pain. The word forum has been
rather hijacked these days, alas. Gone are the good old days when you
gathered around the main hall and spent time teaching and educating
each other, exploring and then extending the boundaries of our
knowledge... Now it's all blinkies and avatars. Gack.

No, but why have another one? I like what we've already got, it fits
nicely on my old machine.

My brain is going walkabout -- I can't recall the name offhand. but
yes, there was someone older once.

What. after being bathed in pink bubbly sauce and chocolate-flavoured
Naven parts? Surely not!
