Well, I'm technically on leave anyway, but I never seem to actually not work . . .
However, I'll be in England next week, with no access to a comp
I miht be able to check my mail, but only if I can find an internet caf� in the lake district, grrr.
I'm leaving tomorrow morning, I'll be back on the 11th.

I personally find it very, very worrying that since I went on leave on Saturday, my workload has increased rather dramatically, and I've been given another job. Hmmm.

RA Schnapps,

I urge you to go head and take your leave. Don't worry about the Vast Empire because it will still be here when you get back (I promise!). There are a few people (including myself) that needs vacation so I would like for you to set the example and go ahead and take one.

It's not so much a case of whether the VE can live without me as whether I can live without the VE

~furrows eyebrows~

No IRC for one week.
No ICQ for one week.
No Yahoo clubs for one week.
No message boards for one week ~shudder~.
No mail for one week.
No Americans for one week.
No ops for one week ~goes pale and feels sick~

Hey, can I make a Schnapps bot to live in #ve and make logs for me when I'm not there?

I could program it with all my favorite phrases . . .

Don't listen to either of them, just take the time to relax, maybe get some sun, and i'll make you a little bot to sit in the channel.

have fun, relax and for once, drink a peach schnapps instead of handing them out.

Niksa my dear, if you think your muahahhahaing is even remotely scary, then you have obviously never heard me laugh ~innicent smile~

I'm not very good at this leave thing, am I?
The plane leaves in ~checks watch~ about 6 hours, and am I in bed? No, I am on the VE message board.

RL?
Hmmm, what?
No, never heard of it, sorry.

Have a nice trip, Sayrah (why does it not surpise me you are going to England?, hehe)

I might as well own up with my own confessions since everyone seems to be saying they are going on leave. I will be on leave starting July 7th, and I will not be back for two weeks.

What it is with everyone posting replies to thistopic is that they are all trying to make me feel loved . . . because they know the VE would fall apart without me, and they want to make sure I come back, hehe

Hello for the first time in forever. I have not been online or whatever lately and I apologize for letting my duties slide. hehe I guess you could say I'm back from a very long vacation. Jackal thanx tons for taking over Alpha while I was gone and tell me what you get back from the email you sent out. Schnapps~~ hmmm.... aren't you glad I'm back!! hehe Well I will be online like all week and stuff so talk to everyone eventually maybe. And I expect everyone to take up my challenge I'm going to post for XWA although I haven't played that for months either I'll be glad to waste some credits.

Jackal... you are to use FL as your ID line position description.

Only and only when the squadron commander is on leave you may use A:CMDR as you position description.

Hehehe Niks, trust you to spoil a party and get technical about ID lines

Hey, I haven't read my mail yet, I haven't heard much about any bad stuff happening (if there is any), and I'm hyper from having my comp back!!

Jack . . . here's the explanation behind the slogans.

First of all, Touch Not The Cat but A Glove.
It is the motto of my Scottish clan, the Clan Macpherson.
The Scottish wildcat's paws are known as iyts "gloves", but when iyt is angry, it extends its claws and the gloves vanish. Therefore, a cat without ("but") a glove is one that is angry. The motto is a warning to enemies of the Clan - it basically means "stay away from us when we are angry".

About the Ferrero Roch� . . . Ferrero Roch� are expensive after-diner sweet things. They used to have a really bad ad on British TV, the voice-over began "The Ambassador's receptions are noted in society . . .". At the end of the ad, a guest takes a Ferrero Roch� and says to the Ambassador "With these Ferrero Roch� you are really spoiling us."

Geddit?
