How is everybody doing?

:lol: when you see "iren" on the end of a word it shows that the word is a foreign work that has been absorbed... German, like English has no problem using a foreign word if need be :-)

@ All

I've been away for a year, but now I am back. How are you all doing?

Wow, Karlos AND X-Ray back! I was going to write "so where is X-Ray" in an earlier post, but that just seemed like wishful thinking.

@X-Ray Did you ever end up coming down to Oz? Hope you you have been away for a good year, not a bad year.

I'm doing well enough. I am going for a job interview this afternoon (it's Mon 12:47 am here in Perth now). I am actually fairly happy with my current work, but I have to travel a long way every day, and the pay is not good enough (not good enough for my mortgage, or my wife, that is).

The new position will probably offer a bit more pay, and the location is good, but so far I haven't been at all impressed with the duties. Presently, I am designing electronics, but the new job seems to be more in the role of product evaluation, quality assurance, documentation etc.

Anyway, I will keep my mind open, and find out more of what the job is about. Hopefully the employer can tell me something better than how the job description reads.

Anyway, damn good to see both of you again!

 :pint:  To the health of you both  :pint:

Cheers,

Oli

Can't say directly, but I could compose an ode

It's definitely X-Ray then :lol:

@Oliver

Good luck!

[X-ray]

Yep, Oli, good to see you around also, and good luck with work!
I still have Oz or NZ in my sights, it's just not so simple anymore because I gotta think of prospects in London also.
At least wherever I go there will always be Amigas and Amiga users!

 :hat:

Whoa! The lost boy(s) return. WB X-ray and WB-ish Karlos (well, you were never that heavily away I think).

[X-ray]

Good to be back, baws!
How is the new missus?

All things are relative. One could argue that a day without a post would be an absence when I was in my prime. Still, it was months between posts before I opened this thread. I should have been on my 2^14 th post by now

Good to see that you are still around.
I have been preoccupied with other things too. Moving among other things so my Amigas isnt in the new flat, some of the amiga stuff is at my dads house and the rest is at my sisters place. Its total moving chaos at the moment.
But on the bright side I finally got a hold off a little money, we sold some timber from the family farm. And things seem to be moving along in amigaland again with MOS 2.0, new stuff from individual computers and other things.

Hey all!

Sorry to hear about your mom Karlos... My grandma developed a bowel obstruction last year which turned out to be a tumor. I remember when she told me I almost cried into my f**king pizza. She's had a few months of chemo and had an op a few weeks back. Still in hospital, but recovering.

Mostly things are alright here. Could do with a few more friends in this town and had a painful girly experience at the start of the year. But I've been promoted, and even turned down a job at Hull uni, which everyone said should've filled me with pride, but I was so unsure about it all...

It's nice to see some familiar names here!  :-)

Punkie!

Hey Punkie!

Well, my Grandfather died in March, and the other died last Thursday... so I guess we have to expect these things now... but the most disturbing thing is seeing my Grandmother has started to develop Alzheimer's... that's very odd, once the memory goes the person is gone.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

I'm sorry dude. :-( That's so weird, I hate the idea of losing everything I know.

Still... How are your adventures in hi-fi going?? :-D

Well, at least not for good!

Fortunately, she doesn't remember that she's ill... so I guess that probably for the best :-)

Just finished recording the video for our next single... so that should be cool!

@ Karlos

I'm not too bad mate. Glad to see you back again :-) :pint:

I guess you saw bloodline's post count and felt threatened ;-)
