My name is Grand Duke, and I am an addict...

I left once, Duke. Got offended by some bitch named Frances.

Anyway, I'll make you a match if you like.

Hang in there, my young friend. Looks as though Tony Blair is.

i made the media file so it's pretty small - even dial ups should be ok

that is nice!

Thanks Husker.That was very nice thing you did there.

I am moved by the responses. I thought I was a fairly minor character in the A2K story, hovering at the edges and hijacking threads with bingo numbers and other irrelevances, so all this has left me a bit stunned. Thanks guys, honestly.

Re: Grand Duke


Okay, BBB. It has all been a bit confusing, and I thank you for bringing me back down to Earth! I'll get right on the case... :wink:

I'm a big fan of chicken soup, and have heard much about it's healing properties, so I'll take your advice Phoenix.

They sat around the campfire and talked for hours, seven grizzled cowboys used to life on the trail and evenings beneath the stars.

They spoke of branding, of horses, of Indians, and, of course, women. Cookie was in mid sentence, carrying on about his latest escapade in Laredo, when the Duke stood up, mounted his horse, and started away from the group. The brilliant sky silhouetted the Duke.

"Where the hell ya goin', Duke" Cookie exclaimed, "I ain't finished my story yet."

"Save it, Cookie", growled the Duke. " I ain't got time to hear it right now. I'm headin' back to A2K."

Beautiful beautiful post "Cookie"

from one minor member to another..welcome back..:-)

We're all minors here Willow...mining the gold that lies scattered in Capybara dung.

Welcome back GD :-D

Good to see your fuzzy face back here!
(Don't go trying that again, okay? We missed you.)

YIPPEE!

I'm glad you've come to your senses, GD!

Thank goodness - too damned many Murricans round here, we need you to help even stuff out - (and you're rawther cute - can I scritch yer wool?)

Murricans give you infidels something to bitch about...still can't lose a Duke.

I thank you all, and apologise for being such a drama queen (or drama duchess).

Dlowan, thank you for your kind offer. Our respective countries have had their fair share of bad blood (cricket, rugby, convicts), but anytime you fancy a scratch, be my guest. I knew the Kiwis had a thing for sheep, but any Aussie is welcome as well!

Pan - if it weren't for the US, Britain would have to ally with the French, and for that, I thank you all. :wink:

I don't think of you as a Murrican, Pan - I think of you as a dangerous - but beautiful - natural phenomenon......




(Scritching Duke's wolly face - er, you DO know I am a doe, don't you Duke???)

It was the name "Deborah" first lead me to to the conclusion you were female. Bonzer, mate.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!
