Now would you believe it if I told you *some* people think I'm quiet as a mouse? As innocent as an angel? As....uh... well... it's Sunday night.... I'm low on the analogies here....
No more analogies available at the moment.Got some analgesics though?
If you really are as quiet as a mouse,then ,well, you probably won't stay that way for long !

Actually I did pick up the application and a fact sheet at a local post office yesterday. Very nice gentleman was informing me of all the passport-related services they offered including *expedited delivery.* I thanked him, informing him, no rush yet. I still have 10 months to go....
So,basically,you got the soft sell and added the form to the "pending" pile ?
These Post Office clerks are way too soft .*Tuts* Now if you'd gone into a British P.O. in my day,they'd have had your wrists clamped to the counter till you agreed to do the paperwork right now.
(Or put the "Closed" sign up,and switched the light off,so they could scuttle off for a cuppa as soon as they'd thrown the forms in your general direction ! )

Actually the coinage in the bag was very interesting... Bev managed to have all the coins stamped with Jack's image on them.... I daren't eat them they're so pretty.... Hmmm... maybe Bev has been hanging around K too much... this sounds like an evil scheme to get me all bedazzled so I forget what I'm supposed to be doing..... like getting my passport..... settling on an itenerary so I can get my airline tickets....

Ah no. Those that think that of me, just don't know me.... Not that we've talked.... but you haven't found me to be.... *wordy* have you?

He did his polite darnedness to demonstrate how customer service friendly he was... *shrugs* I just didn't need his services yet.... and I give him a lot of credit for the excellent job he tried to do considering the image the P.O. still has....
LOL! Now see... I was trying to reserve my hussiness for the Thunk thread! I figured if I said what I said it wouldn't sound so bad!!! But your way sounds equally as bad! (Sure you haven't been lurking the Thunk threads my friend???)

Whenever you're ready,I'm sure he'll be there,and raring to do the "Expedited Delivery",should you actually want it.

Actually I went in for a friendly le..lurk earlier tonight,and came across some "Hamster Whumping". For a moment I thought someone was trying to beat up on a defenceless happy little rodent,but then I clicked on the image and was relieved to find they were only discussing the pros/cons of the Man's Moustache in some pics.
No Boonies-talk...I already had that argument months ago here,and lost !

Um...do you want the polite response or the truth?
And the world of GABIT gets more and more confusing.
It'll get less confusing,as you (and the other newer Gabiteers) get used to the rest of us,and there'll be far more to discuss re AT2,rather than stuff about Gabit 1,as time passes and the info comes out .
In the meantime,it's fun to chat and get to know everyone. The thread only seems a bit chaotic as there are actually far more people going from GW ,or joining from other groups,than last time,and with the forum glitches and time differences,there's a deluge of postings for a while and then a lull .
(Take tonight as an example..I couldn't get into the forum/thread properly for days,so it probably looks like I'm too chatty,but that's because I'm happy to get in and catch up.Other days,I only put one or two posts,if that,lol !)
ETA : To fix my post to answer K and S ! !

I admit it.I was Pro-Boonie.I like it. Like I said though : I lost,overwhelmingly, and Boonies seem to be a bad influence on K and several others !
*Sigh*
I know when I'm overtired,when I lose quotes and struggle with edits and spellings .
Time to go bed,I think.
Have fun everyone.

Yeah, I hope that's it. I do feel a little lost with all the reminiscing, you see. I'm a little scared I'll get very left out at AT2, but I guess there's still *checks wall chart* 304 days to go.
