Hold on, I'll just go read it.

Re-read it I mean, of course! *scuttles away*

EDIT: *scuttles back* You're mocking me with your signed stamped WOLP!

Good, though. I got my chemistry teacher to read LIAGB, and he used the dream topping thing as an example of what could happen with nanotechnology, the unit we were working on

Yes I thought it was great (I was there too...) Witty and accurate. Congrats!

Thank you :-D Yeah, im very lucky to have stamped signed and postcarded copies of ALL THREE! mwah hahahaha, well, after the nightmare of the trains i kinda deserve it i think! It was good the so many fforum members could get there, it'd be great if, one time, we took over an entire signing. Jasper wouldn't know what'd hit him!

On behalf of the Editors, I would deem it well up to our usual standard (mind you since our usual standard is me, that's not saying much .... )
No, no, it was pretty damn good, actually.

And we need, want, more contributors from among you .... otherwise I will fill the next issue with fish puns.

I'm going to SULK.

I took my proofs to get signed at the croquet game so i didn't get them stamped.

And i'm too poor to go to leeds so I didn't get a Goliath badge...

And I want to be a stalker (London stalker more likely)

*stamps foot*

I provided something, but it didn;t get used (that's how bad it was) so - if you don't want to read my dross and a load of fish puns, you'd better get writing...

Exactly how bad is the train system in London?

Recently a 15 year old boy in Melbourne jumped out of a moving train rather than pay a hundred dollar fine for travelling without a ticket.

Carla: I can't get to any of the signings so I can't stalk or have signed stuff!

Everyone cry for me! (JJ)

But TMH, your article was great: I wish I could have gone (waaaaa) .

from me :)

Hey, PSD,

We didn't use it THIS issue because it didn't fit on the page and the other ones were ready. However, I think we can use it in the next issue, if that's okay.

And a big PS to anyone who submits an article...just because we don't use it for one issue, doesn't mean we won't want to use it for another. It all depends on what strikes our fancy of the moment and what we need/have space for. Besides, that's the beauty of being an editor...power...absolute power...MUHAHAHAHA
