<HTML>SO??????

Are you expecting to materialize in front of me tomorrow at anytime or do you actually want to know where in bristol I am, where to meet, when, and so on?

(btw, if you're going t materialise, dont forget to let me in on the secret later, and I'd still like to know about times, so you dont catch me at an awkward situation lol)


I started the way for another convert today, I bought TEA for my friend:D</HTML>

<HTML>Oh, yeah...

Will be around sometime mid to late afternoon. My supervisor got run over by a truck yesterday, so I might have to stay a bit later than I'd hoped to. What I'll do is text you when I leave work, and then text you again when I knoiw what time the train should arrive & meet you a the station, if that's okay? I'm having to return to Cheltenham rather than Evesham and get a lift, so I won't be able to hang about too late...</HTML>

<HTML>Hang on while I sort through my collection of spheres in assorted sizes... ah, yes, that one should solve the problem...

A ChronoGuard's basic equipment consists of spheres, Ben, before you say anything. That's spheres. Not any other word beginning with B.</HTML>
