>I notice that my apprenticeship is over and I am now a journeyman

Congratulations!. Welcome to the “journeypersons” club!.

>Those of you unable to attend juanmaria's party in sunny Spain are welcome to come to wintry Hobart

I missed you at my party but you can count with me. And you had better fill your pantry. My friends say that they prefer buying me a suit than inviting me to a dinner.

>I'll have to check out the price of air fares.
Jo, I’ll go swimming and, if you want, I can wait for you in South Africa and get David there.

And now I’m going to email my friend Fidel to warn him about some rub/red disguised CIA agent.


Juan Maria.

I always think about Sister Sarah and Skye Masterson in Havana in "Guys and Dolls". It seems that the milk drinks are to be recommended, it sounds like a good place to go.

What about "Pioneer", "Wordlord", or "Founding Father/Mother"?

I'll be in Hobart before you, jm - it's only a short swim from Auckland to Tasmania!

Keep the Foster's on ice, please, PaulB!

Dear paulb,
Yes, thank you, I'd love to come! (Would have responded sooner but quite often the last pages of this thread won't
display.) I LOVE winter! Will you put on your heavy
clothes and grill outdoors for us? I'll bring some biscuits. Please have some tapes of musicals ready to
entertain us. Perhaps the Burgess-translated one?

As the first "newbie" I thought I'd drop and say "hello".

Looks like we'll be "enthusiasts" for a while then. What's the next landmark - 500??

Just graduated to enthusiast! At last! I've been keeping an eye on my numbers since the mid-160's!
The next level might well be 500, Jo. The differences so far have increased geometrically (sort of). I hope Anu
is getting a kick out of our enthusiasm for earning credits on his creation. Anu, if you're reading this, thank you once again for developing this Board!

I was wondering what people would bring with them to the addicts ball (apart from their AWAD password of course).

I will bring (to the addict's ball) my autographed copy of "12 Steps for the Recovering Pharisee (Like Me)"...
