You will find Arthritic Angelic Saxon (Deano) on flickr, as lambert bank.

Grüsse, Gerrit

Thanks Gerrit, that's good to know. Looking at Flickr again I still find it painfully slow to load anything much, so I find it too difficult to use.I operate in the technology stone age. I like it here: hunting, gathering, going for a swim in the Ipernity.

Thank you for the honour you have conferred upon me in selecting me as an administrator. Might I please inquire if there is a cash alternative?

Of course, all you need to do to claim your £50.00 is to reveal your name and contact details and the cheque will be in the post !

Or maybe not. I'd hate to lose the Connection. You'll just have to settle for Administrative duties. I think you should consider changing the banner; it's an interesting format to fit one of your pictures into.

I liked the bathers in the old banner. However, your identification of the fabric of Italo-Byzantine society appealed to my vanity, and so I substituted spots for bathers. After all, we are an abstract agglomeration following multiple diverse threads.

A very fetching banner.

I frequently forget people's names, especially those who have multiple names. Also so many members of IP have evaporated during the past year, but I now recall 'Arthritic Angelic Anglo-Saxon' who said he was a lion tamer!
As I still have one foot over on the dark side, I must pop over and do a search for "lambert bank' to see if it is the same bloke who enjoyed being more different than most.

Recently I changed our banner to a sign reading 'Danger'. I can do this because (a) I have been promoted to administrator status, and (b) I know how to do it. The 'Danger' sign turned out to be prophetic, since over the last couple of days two of our number have upped and left, presumably finding us turgid and failing to provide stimulation. This trickle could turn into a torrent; we could be facing a haemorrhage of members. Therefore I have changed the banner again, to read 'Fragile'. Make no mistake comrades, we are in troubled waters. Keep in mind that most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. Let us not take the great gift of Italo-Byzantine Acuity for granted.Avanti!

I've just caught up with this threat to the Acuity. I am flummoxed...
I plan to carry on as though nothing is happening, or until Monsieur Godot arrives to save us. I hope the broad tent of Italo-Byzantine Obscurity can be saved, or packed up and moved, but we shall see.Venceremos!

Wir schaffen das !
