    Dual citizenship. I'm an Irish immigrant. Family is from Armagh, near Belfast. But, I live in Philadelphia in the US fulltime, now. I go back & forth a fair amount, but up until a few years back, I was splitting equal time between the 2.

    I guess that's what's throwing me out all the time. And next time as well again. :p

    Thanks for the kind birthday wishes, guys!

    Was on strike on Thursday with 20.000 other upset teachers in Utrecht. Felt very daring. My first strike!

    :D

    But people managed to call me at home & on my mobile. Also got a lot of cards, e-mails, PMs and messages on facebook & DA.

    :)

    Anyway, had five guests from Germany from Friday on. Well, a study pal arrived already on Friday and the other four joined in from Saturday afternoon on. Everybody left today. Was a bliss.

    The move is very close. Yes, no april fools anymore. It seems to be place before the two year anniversary. Please, follow threads in here and Comms to stay up to date.

    Thanks for the heads-up, Skiara. :)

    It says "sometime in the next few weeks" but that means 6 months to a year since "soon" meant two years. :p

    Actually, it's closer than "a few months". This month?

    Hopefully it'll be done before my move. Two moves at one time is a bit too much. :p



    Please, everybody! READ THE 'final preparation' thread in here. I don't want to see you loosing your accounts because of not having a working email adress*.



    Edit1: Fixing markup code

    Edit2:

    *It's the private email address, not public one.

    Hopefully the "working e-mail" means the e-mail we signed up with, not the secondary e-mail that is made public in profiles.

    I wondered about that as well. I just asked in ModSquad. :)

    And for now... better to keep both working. :)




    Gangrenous, that way it got some attention at least. :p

    I believe it'll be your "private" email.

    I asked Halibut and he said that yes, it refers to the private e-mail. Someone should tweak the wording to reflect that, as it had me confused.

    Yep, it's the private one. That's answer I got at MS. :)

    Thanks for the hint. I'll change it in the places I posted it. :)

    Just checked that I have the right e-mail in my user profile.

    [face_idea]

    And soon I must return to Chilla, Shawnkyr & DarthUncle at my living-room table. They play "Phase 10".

    :D

    So who won? :D

    Not a good past few days. The other night I found out that a friend of mine that I use to hang out with at the corner pub died a little while ago and just a few minutes ago, my grandma called and told us that another one of my mom's aunts had just died. :_| She was the one that had a mild stroke about a year ago.

    Nat, is there a phase 10 game at C&G? It seems to be quite popular. :)


    That are good news, Azure! Hopefully it works and they'll pick YOU! [face_good_luck]
