wiseheart | Party time again!

Hi folks! *waves*

Time is flying by, isn't it? It's that time of a year again - I'm getting older. In this case, I'm turning 55 on October 9, which used to be an important thing, back under the old regime. Women could retire at the age of 55 back then. So I've decided to ignore all that fantastic headway we've supposedly made towards democracy in the last two decades and enter my virtual retirement, blithley overlooking the fact that I'll have to work another 7 or 8 or only God knows how many years.

So, let's party! Last years virtual birthday party yielded 742 comments on 6 pages, which won't be easy to top, but we're good, aren't we? WE CAN DO IT! So, let's give it a try! In the recent years, it has always been great fun, so let's have fun again!

You're all cordially invited to help yourself to a slice of virtual Dobos Cake recipe - it's my absolute favourite, although I never managed to get it as good as my Garnny used to.

Cheers!

Note: The party will be closed on October 9, at midnight, sharp. Join us and have fun!

Well, of the above I only know Nine, but I won't mind travelling with him, either. Tosh says she liked travelling with him, and I trust Tosh.

Eleven has been fab, although I've not been sure about some of the stories.

Two is adorable - cosmic hobo.

Five is everyone's favourite absent-minded uncle. And his stories are great.

Yeah, you know I don't really get that sort of stuff over here. :(

Had our tour guide not given our refounds back only on the last day, I could have bought at least five more Dr. Who DVDs at "Forbidden Planet". Now I'm sitting on the money here, Mum's considering changing it back, and can't get yummy, geeky fannish stuff for it, as I don't foresee another trip to the UK all too soon.

A shame, I'd like to watch some Five episodes. Preferably with subtitles and *not* on the computer screen. *g*

You could change it back, put the money into a PayPal account, transfer that to me, and I can go shopping for you with what there is.

Urgh... that's kind of you, but I'm afraid I have no idea what a PayPal account is and how to create one. *ducks in shame* Yeah, I am a dinosaur that lives under a rock. Why, I only got my first cell phone two years ago!

PayPal is a means of transferring money electronically. You can send money to me in one currency, and I can receive it in another currency. I use it for buying things from the US, and for receiving payments from the US.

Here's the website so that you can take a look and decide whether it's something you'd feel comfortable using:
https://www.paypal.com/

Thanks for the link. I'll look it up and see whether I can understand how it works or not. If I can, and if they don't collect a fee that's bigger than the actual sum that needs to be transferred (such things are known to happen), then I might bother you in the future. ;)

TV addiction is a horrible thing!

No problem, and I'll be happy to do it if you decide so.

And Seven is mysterious and a little unsettling. With fabulous stories.

Seven doesn't ring a bell at all. I'll have to look up my resources.
*nods sagely*

Seven was the last one before the show went out of production for a long time.

Party time again!
