1162268 2010-12-20 00:18:00 We can't really wait much longer.
Only 8 days left and we are dealing with flights and airlines.

I am going to announce the total and list the contributers (names only) when I get home tonight and make the transfer through to Speedy.

Carl (Karl) I sent you a txt and I hope you can have it sorted in time but understand if you cannot. We cannot hold off any longer to make sure he gets the flights and everything else arranged in time.

1162269 2010-12-20 00:23:00 Karl told me he would know something by 3pm this afternoon, if that helps. Siobhan Keogh (16063)
1162270 2010-12-20 00:27:00 Since roddy_boy is MIA at the moment, I will step into the breech (and likely as not get shot down - or at least flamed).

"From whence" is grammatically redundant and, as such, is incorrect.

"Whence" means "from what place" or "from what source" (dictionary.reference.com) - the preposition "from" is already incorporated in the meaning of the word...

/here endeth the lesson

From what place did that outburst come prithee ?

Have a go at that and get it wrong again, it is Christamas.

It helps a great deal.
Thanks for the info.

1162272 2010-12-20 00:42:00 Very well
We have covered every possible contingency.
Because of that I am closing off the donations.

I will of course still accept anything that might come from PC World :)


Bugger!

I just got back to town and put in my donation. Please keep it in, Speedy has been very helpful to me. Get enough and you won't need Grabaseat, they may be hard to catch anyway, no doubt everybody wants them this time of year.

Monday Laughs coming soon.................

Cheers

1162274 2010-12-20 01:21:00 3PM draws near ... !!! Heard any more from Karl? :D Chilling_Silence (9)
1162275 2010-12-20 01:28:00 Not yet! If I haven't heard anything (and DeSade hasn't either) I'll run across the building and sniff him out.

Edit: By 3pm, I mean.

1162276 2010-12-20 01:29:00 Nothing on my end so far. DeSade (984)
1162277 2010-12-20 01:39:00 It's alright, poor Karls probably terribly busy there, he does a *lot*, and I know first-hand having worked with him... Anyways, here's hoping :D Chilling_Silence (9)
