  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Rod, if I come by for Christmas turkey, and if I eat all the sprouts,

    will there be sheep sh*t for desert? Yummy!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Oh, great family photo, Rod. Do you have any plans to go to Iceland?

    Pity you couldn't make that veggie pie...and send it in the mail to Greece. 

    Sounds very yummy! Have a great Christmas weekend! xxx

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    maybe no protection from flak, but always prefer flying in my flying sombrero, never somber in that sombrero/Dawkins, much in need of a hat, was at least good at painting himself into corners despite confronting a flat canvas//have been thinking about just how to respond to this 'invoking' thing, but am good to proceed with pre-history extra-terrestrials as a kind of exo-exoskeleton (making me something of a white, red, cancerous or other kind of maybe blood cell)....re: 'birds', thinking of lorikeets (rainbow lorikeets) as the answer to Ray Johnson's question, "What is your favourite (spelt 'favorite') colour (spelt 'color')?"  Not that Ray Johnson is likely to ask.  Will that get me past the bird problemo, Señor Veranos??

    Hot Rod, you're up with your Beauty :-) XX

  • CrackerJack Kid

    Rod VEC,

    You have any examples of computer generated stamps from way back....say the

    early to mid 80s? Am writing about that now for something I'll publish.I remember Gene

    Laughter doing quite a lot of that work, also Tane Burns from Australia

    BTW, did you ever correspond with Laughter? Also trying to get in touch with

    Tane, but no leads.

    ok, post,

    CrackerJack  

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Hi Rod! Sorry to hear that you're going through a difficult time, and I wish you a speedy recovery. Also sorry that you won't be coming to Paris. I'll try and get the jonges and meisjes there to send you some sort of get well card.

  • Nick B

    Thanks, Rod. Yes I was born a very long time ago too!

  • Nick B

    It's like that for me when I go back to Brighton or Hove. I only left there in '87, but the changes in what feels like a very short space of time are astonishing. I hardly recognise the place.

    Don't know Verwood, but we often go through Ringwood on our way east. Poole or Yeovil are probably the most visited towns for us.

  • Mao Huan (lazybunny)
