   Nope. Just what *is* this fixation you have with mirrors, Nick?

   But *all* my smileys are pointy (and no jokes about always being happy
to see people, either... 8->) (although you'd just about be right... 8->).

where I was! 8->

   ...don't tell me I've got a reputation *locally* too! Unless you count
getting 3 free games on Super Mario Brothers - the pinball - in the 
Glasshouse? 8->

   Mirrors, pool cues, lions...Nick, you need help!

   (Quick warning - she gets cross when everyone calls her Ka*t*rina... 8->).

   Well I recently heard here that one can hire a mobile hot tub for maybe
$100 a day, they tow it up and collect it the next day! If I didn't have
phone bills and overseas trips etc to have to pay for, I'd be seriously 
looking into it! 8->

   Um, um, can't we find a more reasonable middle ground than a Lysistrata
decision?

   Or Cog. Sci. wannabe's...

   Hmmm, hmmm...I *will* be at the Glasshouse a bit later on, but I won't
have time for the Clyde first I think. Wouldn't be there until 7:00.

   Oh, lunch. Can't make that either.

   (Should really move this into email...)

   Why, Mr Nicolas! People are already trying to pin "Poly guru" on me,
I won't have a bar of it...

   Hmmm, we weren't very well received, no.

   Maybe here is a good time to mention it - I've been in contact with
another Bi person on the net locally, and they're making noises about setting
up a Melbourne Bi group. It's something I've been thinking about for a
while, could be an idea.

   If any other people living in Melbourne are reading this and have something
to say about such an idea, please get in touch!
