I thought I say hi to everyone and tell you guys know where I've been hiding the last month!

Back at the beginning of March I went to Spain for a couple of weeks Kite surfing, I had a real blast, the conditions were great...loads of wind, flat water and the sun was shining. A couple of days after getting back I started getting dizzy spells and a few days later I was in bed with flu like symptoms. They got worse along with the dizzy vision...felt like I'd downed a bottle of vodka! After about a week in bed I got worse until eventually I was taken into hospital cos my blood pressure had dropped about as low as you'd want it to go. Anyway, the good news was the hospital did loads of tests and it turned out I'd caught some nasty water borne virus out in Spain that was causing all the trouble. They fixed me up and let me out a couple of days ago.

N n n no p p permanent d damage I happy to say! Hehe

Anyways, I'm on the road to recovery now and I missed you guys and the game loads too so I thought I'd just check in and say hi and that I'll be back on board in the next few days... just as soon as the room stops spinning! lol.

Moral of the story: Don't drink sea water!

They call me stretch.

When I go on my more exotic scuba trips, I really get concerned about what I'm swimming in. And to top matters off, realize most of the time to get there and back I spend anywhere from 4-24 hours trapped in hurtling metal death tubes with a bunch of people who for all I know are on their way to or coming back from a tuberculosis convention.

Suffice is to say I empathize greatly and we have missed you. Hope to see you on and mobile soon.

Holy cow, MeanDevil. That's crazy. I bet they mix that stuff with jell-o to make the bio rifle stuff!

Hey, Meandevil! What a trip! Sounds like fun...you know, until you got back. I'm glad everything is getting back to better.

Guess you wouldn't do very well bouncing around on the titan waves if the room is spinning, eh?

Good to have you back, see you in game!

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO what a ride!"

I like that "hurtling metal death tubes" I assume you mean our wonderful airtransportation system.

Just for grins, what do you call automobiles?

Hey MeanDevil, it's good to see that you are doing better. I missed seeing you on the server. You sounded like you had fun on that vacation, but got a little souvenir to remember it by.

Very true! I was thinking bout setting my PC up on a roundabout to counteract the spinning...?

Yeah, the last meal I had in Spain looked like it came out of a bio rifle. Although they call it pea soup over there!

Thanks for your messages, I'll be fit again in no time I'm sure. Look forward to seeing you all in game soon.

Kind regards, MD
