<font color="plum"><H2>Cloudy's Cafe</H2></font>

Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself


Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good
darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie.

The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines:


<H2>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone</H2>

[i]* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner
* any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences)
-a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short
conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately!
* Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!)
* do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it.[i]

Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around theworld. And purple napkins, of course!

<font color="pink">The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.</font>

Cloudy, your hostess [img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

Hey gang! Not sure how stable our server is just now and would hate to lose anything so here's a new thread for today. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Cloudykins

First non-Cloudy Post!

First non-Cloudy and non-Galadria post [img]tongue.gif[/img]

ROTFL! Hello, Galadria!

Evenin' all!
Can't be around much nowadays..I've got alot of tests and work to study for and do.. :(
But now I'm here! So how are ya'll doin'?

Woohoo, IW is back (for now).
Well good evening, here I am!

Hi, Epona and all. Decided to post while IW is up.. Epona, reaad today that they discovered the oldest Mayan mural in Guastemala. Is thaat neato?

I could not believe how badly I missed IW today!!! It was pathetic. I blame it all on you guys, of course. Before Yule, I was still pretty much in semi-lurker mode only popping out occasionally and posting in the war forum.....and then I started more 'at home'. Yep, it's all your fault :D .

Hiya guys. Only here for a few minutes. Galadria, we had baked chicken. Really easy. Smother the ckn breasts with a mixture of cream of something soup and 1/2 to 1 cup of white wine (+ herbs if you want) then cover with bread crumbs or other crushed, seasoned grain and bake at 350* for 45 min. Warning: sometimes it doesn't look real nice (if you use cr of mushroom it looks nasty) but the smell and taste is phenomenal!

Hooray!! This is a vast improvement! It will get even better with the new server!
Yippee

Hey people! I just popped back again to see if it was working, and hurray, it is! :D
Man, the computer seemed so boring what with BG2 buggering up an all!

alright, IW is back up! only a matter of time til its up to full potential, now...

Hello everyone, nice to see IW up again, how are you all?

And am I the only one that thinks that having ALL the smileys show up as "instant graemlins" when making a new post will slow things a slight bit?

Ah, you're not bored surely? Have to see what I can do about that... ;)

Ah well if you want to strip off, I can lend a hand... ;)

For anyone else I'd charge a lot but for you......6 pence should do it!

My you *are* cheap! [img]tongue.gif[/img] but I'm not in the habit of paying... [img]tongue.gif[/img] :D ... perhaps we could come to a deal?.... ;)

Well I can be quite imaginative with a can of whipped cream, you know, but that's been done ;) Or I think Cloudy may have some chocolate icecream in the freezer? Here, let me show you...

I get a treat? *pant pant* Feed me some ice cream darling, lets be decadent

Sure thing honey, but put that spoon down - where we're going we don't need spoons.... :D :D

Wow, is it me, or is it HOT in here?

Ouch.. ok, my tooth is out and only a little painful! I'll be glad when it is all healed up and I stop biting the inside of my cheek! OUCH! LOL

How is everyone?

Mornin' all! Sorry to hear about the tooth Cloudy, maybe you should just stop getting into bar fights... thats all I'm going to say... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And does anyone else think that LoA and Epona should start some kind new thread for their antics? After all, this is supposed to be a cafe and they are putting me off my food...

"Epona's thread for naughty boys."

or

"Lord of Alcohol's drunken debauchery."

Something like that anyway...

Just what are you implying Barry? [img]tongue.gif[/img] Ok we'll rent a room :D But hey rates are cheap here!

Mmmmm Barry, I hope you're not suggesting that I become the IW Madame... I have standards you know!

*Tacks up sign on the window: "Ahem...no one under 18 allowed in at the moment."

*reads what she has written and leaves*

:D

Sorry Lioness!!
It's oK, I'm behaving at the moment :D

Tut tut...Epona.. *waggles finger* ;) ok.

G'morning everyone! :wavey: Glad to see IW is back up and flourishing. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Notes to self: Do not let Attalus visit any thread of Epona's. j/k Morning, everyone. We're all overcast here in Texas.

For once we're actually having some reasonably sunny weather here in Denmark, as I learned in a quite painful way when I looked out of the window and straight into the sun expecting there to be just grey clouds as usual.

And a quick recommendation, all those of you who don't own Wizardry 8, BUY IT, it's the best 1st person RPG EVER, in my opinion at least.

Galadria, Did you tell Attalus about his credit card bill yet ;)
Morning everyone! (Rainy and "cloudy" up here.)
LoA, what do you say we get to work on a addition attached to Cloudy's.
I propose a 30 lane bowling alley. We can serve beer there and late night munchies. Who's with me!
Barbarion bowling will be a good name. (still up in the air.)

Mornin all! OK, so in one post we have LoA complain that the Cafe lovebirds can't go elsewhere as rents are cheap here. But in the next we have Epona state that she does have standards. Ahhh... make your minds up! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Fear not Galadria - Attalus is perfectly safe. I am being kept quite busy enough as it is ;) :D :D :D

LOL @ Barry. Epona, watch out for guys that worry about how much the room costs. I'm more of a "nothing is too good for you, my sweet" kinda girl. :D
Isa anyone else having trouble getting on? I tried and tried yesterday.

lol yeah i had some problems also.
