Thanks everyone

[The Undertaker]

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you who replied to my question on 28 Jan. "What's it like here?"
After a couple of emails between myself and Simon, Tim is migrating me on Monday.
With the support available from you lot, I'm sure that I have made the right choice.
Just a couple of points, if I may. Maxping, that picture of the real undertaker could not be further from the truth. If you look at my avatar you will see me on my weekly trip to the pub from the nursing home. And second.
Rik, when do you sleep?
Thanks again see you soon.

[RJM]

I am sure you have made the right decision.

Rik never sleeps - too, busy helping us "non-techies" out.

[Rik]

Rik, when do you sleep?

Usually when I'm typing - asky anone. 

Glad to hear you're joining us. You'll like the warm fuzzy glow here...

Just passing on the stuff other people have helped me with. It's one of the great things about the online community, there is, generally, a willingness to help others, we all travel the same road, but are at different points of the journey. Others helped me get to where I am, I'll gladly try and pass on the knowledge they have given me.

[Lance]

Thanks Undertaker, happy to see you're joining us!

Simon, when do we get our commission? 

[Rik]

The new central will be in by the end of the month...

It's possible - you just might not like the monthly bill.

[The Undertaker]

Hey! I made it!
Migrated a few minutes ago.
Where's the bunting? And the welcoming pint of Old Peculiar?

[RJM]

Welcome Undertaker.

Rik & co will be along shortly to hand out the beers!

[Rik]

Hi Undertaker

Welcome aboard. Unfortunately, the bunting and beer are only available on selected feast days. Had you migrated on Wednesday, we would have been pouring them down the line immediately. As it is, however, you do qualify for a free lifetime's membership of the forum.

[Nerval]

Hey!
Where's the bunting?

My cat ate it lol 

Welcome, O grim one.

[Lance]

Welcome undertaker!

No bunting or beer, but you can have a banana instead! 

[cavillas]

Hello Undertaker, nice to see you're here.  There are a lot of us old f***'s here so you should feel at home.  I think there shold be a weekly outing arranged with a big bus for wheelchairs, walking frames and carers.    Bye

[Nerval]

carers. 

You think anybody actually cares?   

Well if the meeting's at Bridlington, IDNet will pay for my trip. 

[Rik]

There are a lot of us old f***'s here

Hey, all my farts are brand new, never been used before. 

[Rik]

You think anybody actually cares? 

Of course we do, we practice care in the community.

Welcome aboard ... Old Peculiar,, you are joking...have a 

[The Undertaker]

Bugger!
I'm not here 5 minutes and I'm asking for help.
I just tried to send an email via tbird and of course, it was still configured with my old ISP.
Went to change setting on my account to default server. Went to email again and it is still "looking up smtp.efhbroadband.com.

HELP

[Nerval]

Just set up a new account for your IDNet email address and set it as default.
It works best if you set both servers to mail.idnet.net.uk.

Remember, you can't forward any mail that came into your old account  as it will try and use your old server  (is that the problem?).

[Rik]

Just a thought, oh coffin bearer, you have checked in the status page that the email account(s) are up and ready?

[jupiter]

Where's the bunting?

If we have bunting can it be Emma, who has got pleasantly curvaceous lately.

Just got back from the chemist with my 4 viagra tabs ...

[Nerval]

Just got back from the chemist with my 4 viagra tabs ...

lol  £50 isn't cheap though.

Yes on Feb 14th I can see people queueing up at Boots counter to tell the girl they're impotent in front of all the other customers.  Apparently you have to have a talking to and answer some questions - I don't know whether you'll be required to demonstrate or not 

It's bad enough when I go and ask for Sudafed (brilliant for controlling colds) and the daft girl asks my life history, measures my inside leg and talks to me as though I'm a five year old.

[Rik]

I thought it a nice touch that they can be bought OTC from Valentine's Day!

Reminiscent of buying condoms in the good old days, when we had hair, Nerv. How many toothbrushes did you buy?

[Nerval]

the good old days, when we had hair,

Speak for yourself.............

[Rik]

Why, have you always been bald???   

[Nerval]

badly phrased - I still have hair. 

[Inactive]

Me to Nerv, alas most of it aint on my head.. 

[jupiter]

Out of breath after quick dash to chemists.

It didn't work.

What's your inside leg got that mine hasn't?

[Nerval]

you're making me laugh today all right 

I lied about the leg   
Enjoy your sudafeds.

[Rik]

Me to Nerv, alas most of it aint on my head.. 

Me to you, most of mine's on my chin. How come chins don't go bald. How come hair starts growing in new places and stops on the head?

Life ain't fair.

[Rik]

What's your inside leg got that mine hasn't?

A lack of turgidity?

[jupiter]

OK, now I've tried Sudafed and everything has dried up completely.

And Valentine's Day only day after tomorrow!

Oh - and I'm barred from the chemist.

[Rik]

That's what comes of misunderstanding what was meant when they said 'cough please'! 

[Nerval]

Oh - and I'm barred from the chemist.

[The Undertaker]

Rik
I have now

[Rik]

Does that mean all is well in black limousine land?

[The Undertaker]

Yep and with speeds like 5000+, I'm "burying" my old ISP

[Rik]

Good for you, you'll like it here - though I'm told it takes a while to get used to some of the inhabitants! 

[The Undertaker]

I'm sure I'll like it here.
I had 14 disconnections yesterday and I emailed ID about it.
Got a reply from Miriam within a short time.
Would be waiting till William was King for a reply from EFH/186k.
They're too busy playing poker!

[Rik]

It comes as a shock, does CS around here. You'd probably have had a phone call from Simon by now, but he's on holiday this week.

[Inactive]

I have never spoken to anyone at IDnet, just signed up, connected..sorted.

[The Undertaker]

Is he on the Isle of Wight?

[Rik]

I have never spoken to anyone at IDnet, just signed up, connected..sorted.

Don't feel deprived, Inactive, Simon tends to call when there's been a problem, or when he wants to get your thoughts. He'll get to you.

[Rik]

Is he on the Isle of Wight?

You might think that, I couldn't possibly comment.

[Inactive]

That's all Wight then.. 

[Rik]

Look folks, we've got Jonathon Ross as a member under a pseudonym!
