<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 the world. 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]

Sorry, Dizzy, I'm just cleaning up the fonts/text for the Cafe intro!

You've all done a great job keeping the Cafe open while I've been off visiting family! :D

Hi everybody. ITs been awhile when I last visited this place, still looks good as new. Hey, could i have some regular coffee, none of the decaf stuff.

I have really missed this place and all of you!!!

I'm home for a few days and then running off to visit some good friends overnight. I'll be around a little more after this, I hope. :D

Back to work on Monday.. YUK! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Happy that you are happy CB ;)

The mods have a lot of hits lately.. busy season... tsktsk They are doing a great job [img]smile.gif[/img]

Just popping in... gonna sleep in a few.. got school... wow... hear me... school. why is there sarcasm in my voice??? :D

Welcome SecretMaster- coffee's on the counter, help yourself [img]smile.gif[/img]

Bahamut! *hug* How's life in Singapore? :D

I've just changed my plans so I may be around a little more this morning. My guy's not feeling too well, so we aren't going out just now.

Amen. Thanks a lot to the mighty Memnoch. "Keeping this place troll-free, for you and me." Cloudy, have a good time on your visit. :D

Oh man... Cloudy confused me for someone else... what Singapore? I have never even gone there (though I would like that) :D

Attalus, yep yep! In fact, Mouse and Saz are even more understanding than Memny.. Memny seems pissed! :D

<font color = lightgreen> [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] Good morning, all.

I simply must make myself some extra-strong coffee; my distilled espresso should do the trick. *sip* No, I did not want to get up this morning, but it looks like I did anyway. *sigh*

Everyone settling in nicely, Cloudbringer? Has the cat decided to accept him yet? [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]

Attalus, I haven't heard from RudeDawg; have you?

Anyone seen Moni lately? Just wondering how she's doing....

Aviendha, I suppose you can take those high heels off, now. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

HAHAHA! Yup, Bahamut, one of us wasn't quite awake and I think it's me.. LOL How are the PHILLIPINES? ;) :D

Azred! Howdy! Things are settling in a bit. My Merlin actually comes up to see what Jim is up to and lets Jim lift his little fuzzy but off the counters when he hops up there! LOL [img]graemlins/kittynow.gif[/img]

Inga came in and lounged in the same room with me and Jim last night so I think it's ok! She's slower to warm to new people but so far she seems like she's going to be just fine!

Hi Attalus! I'm about to have some breakfast. Jim's got a stomach bug and went back to bed. :(

Anything exciting going on now? :D
