You mean up to now we've been dealing with sane Cy? :eek:

That is rough, is it indefinite or can you change off after a few weeks?

cyberwolf77

Nope, I stuck starting at 3am every day. I will demobilize before my sanity completely fails

aaronjumper

Sorry Cy. What a **** show.

Nightmare Wolf. Great name for a metal band.

Gremlinertia

You make a good point

aaronjumper

How are things Grem, staying out of trouble?

Gremlinertia

Ah yeah, this relationship lark has put a halt to my gallop :pac: Joke!.

All well with you?.

aaronjumper

I think they call that maturing Grem. You should try and stay away from it.

Same old, life has been quiet but I haven't minded.
When was the last time you had ice cream?

Gremlinertia

Had an ice cream about two weeks ago i think.

aaronjumper

Well given how quickly they melt these days you're better off.

Gremlinertia

Plus they only make me thirsty after.

aaronjumper

That's what water is for. So I'm told.

Gremlinertia

Argh thirstier so jeez!!

aaronjumper

Oohhhhhhhhh. Well that is different and understandable.

Gremlinertia

How about you? Oh i had a brunch btw, yummy.

aaronjumper

I had the chocolate version of a King Cone yesterday. Mmmmmmmmm.

Gremlinertia

Fancy that, an ice cream i haven't heard of..

aaronjumper

It's basically a cornetto but bigger.

Gremlinertia

Yeah googled there, probably have seen them about but never noticed the size..

aaronjumper

Well they are especially nice in weather like this. You need to get them home quick though.

Gremlinertia

Eat on the go, i've little patience

aaronjumper

Fair enough. :pac:

Hey jumper! Long time since we chatted. The weather is grand 8 time zones west of Eire, while I refuel on coffee at my favourite javahouse hotspot.

Gremlinertia

I was going through some things, so I took a break until I was on form again.

Gremlinertia

Too flustered with the heat for my imagination Swannie

Oops! Swannie adjusts giant fan for Wales and turns on greater fan speed to reach Rubecula.

Rubecula

But noise is lovely jumper, especially when it shouts over suburban racket. The only quiet space found in SoCal is when I sail out into the Pacific.

You can sail too?

Gremlinertia

Aaron is one of the nightwalkers so he's much appreciated by me

Yeah i've had upset stomach (kind of) since this heat started and fatigue is really getting to me now, off next week, it will be spent with cold towels and cold drinks

Good form? That sounds like a Southern Brit expression?

Too hot to write Grem Tales? How about a Grem sequel to Dante's Inferno?

Gremlinertia

I think i'd explode if i wrote about fire!!

Grand spin on words Rubecula. Does that mean jumper is windy at times?

Oh you!

Having to refrain from hissing at the sun.
You know it's bad when it's so warm not even the wasps or bees are seen around.

Good!

It's been used plenty down my neck of the woods for as long as I can remember. Wouldn't have a notion of the origin though.
Life is like that sometimes though innit.

Gremlinertia

In good form/on form has been in my vocabulary for as long as i care to remember although on form very often used by commentators to describe, say, a soccer player who is playing well..

aaronjumper

Yes it is used for dancing too. Not that I'd know *cough cough*

Lived on a ketch for a couple years in a nearby harbour. My boatmate's folks owned it, but did not use it, so we did, and it was grand. I paid half-rent and half-utilities, and it was cheaper than where I live now, about 3 miles inland from the Pacific. We did a few weekends sailing off the Pacific coast, mostly to Catalina Island. Fun!

So you had the water to rock you to sleep every night.
Was it as nice as it sounds?
