Up Front: Submission Pun Goes Here, in reply to Emma Hart,
This one is absolutely harrowing. It won’t be the only one.
Kia Kaha! to all, as discussed earlier on Capture thread, sharing helps.

Your submission sounds perfectly sensible to me. I'm sure they will be convinced on that alone . Well maybe not, but it should be that simple. Hope it is full of more submissions in support just like that. Fingers crossed.

Cracker: Bloggers: Pr*cks, Ars*holes,…, in reply to Bart Janssen,
the conference is quite deliberately in ski season
It is said, when Frank Lloyd Wright was told his roof leaked over someone’s desk, he erplied “So move the desk” ;)
also sad, sad that you need the ski season to attract you Science types to enhance the Science. -

just don’t tell Health and Safety or they’ll ban conferences.
Just ban Conference Centres and have them out in Stadiums in the fresh air!

Capture: Spring is Like a Perhaps Hand, in reply to JacksonP,
Spring is when the convertibles come out of the shed, right? ;-)
I have one of those too!
It could be real.
But it wouldn't be mine -

Capture: Spring is Like a Perhaps Hand, in reply to JacksonP,
Hi Jackson, we are all over the show like a mad woman’s …. I think I am around for only 3 days but not sure as I am back up north by Friday. This and next. We are a bit exhausted and birthdays in the near future and funeral past has made us a bit busier. If I venture out I will yell out, if not ,next time fer sure.
I think the message today could be KIA KAHA!
Oh Jackson, I'm sure you met Graham at our gatherings. His charming wife who is in Archives. The masterful magical Graham. A gem of an English man was he. :) -
I did my young years at school in Hornby and I did a recky to my grandmother in my later years in Linwood Ave. It was as if my Uncle had planted her in the back garden for her last weeks.Plants are a big part of my life now. The life, the death ,the rejuvenation of new spring flowers is enough to satisfy my belief that we all live on in poignant ways.
We lost a really good friend last week but the arrival of cigars in the post today (thank you precious :)) made me think of him yet again (over the past 7 days) as one who will be remembered for generations to come. So here is a piece of Spring for Graham who has flown. RIP. -
Capture: Spring is Like a Perhaps Hand, in reply to Leigh Russell,
Having said that, we all cope with these things in our own ways. Kia kaha, Hebe and other Christchurch people.
This… helps.
Not important to anyone (including me) but I was born in Chch, I have experienced the LA earthquake, and I have died aproximately 3 times that I know of. I don’t wish to diminish anyone’s angst but I no longer( and never thought) have faith that the right issues are being put first for Cantabrians. Weirdly my family down there seem fine but they still have a warm house.It’s the ones still using portaloos that come to my mind first.
ETA Maybe if others did have those experiences, we could teach the world to sing.
