<H2><font color="plum">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:

* <H3>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone </h3>

* 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 reptuation 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.

<font color="pink"> Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

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 http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/EEhearts.gif

Wow! I cannot believe I am the first to post on this! Hi, everybody. I have been pretty busy lately. In case I haven't said so before, it is good to be back up and running. Good to see most everybody back too. So what is up?

Awww... I'd hoped we'd get up to 1000 in the previous post. Anyway, Hi Cloudy!!!!! I just returned from the bunny thread and am still affected http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/bunny.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/bunny.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/bunny.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/bunny.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif. *Looks around* Nice place, I see you've cleaned the cake and the JeromevsTheFluffy War off. A fennel tea please (I need to relax, SCHOOL AGAIN TOMORROW http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/scream.gif )
I'm proud of having got the 200th post in the last thread (the one where I got my sig working)

Hi Reeka, Hi Cloudy http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/xyxwave.gif

Hello all!

I'm certainly up for some procrastinating - it seems to be something I do very well, and what better place to do it! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

It was pretty dull and dismal here today but now things have cleared up a bit and it looks like it's going to be a clear, clean and smooth evening. I can only hope y'all are enjoying similar weather.

Now I shall sit here and recover from that absurd 'bunny' thread. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/biglaugh.gif

*sigh*

I'm trying to see how long i can put off doing my homework, due for tommorrow.

The life of a teenager huh? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

I nearly forgot... Mouse, that site you had in the last thread is just SADISTIC. You should be ashamed of yourself! Poor *cough cough* Neil!

I don't envy you at all. Homework is one thing I really don't miss about school. And I was just like that, http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/biglaugh.gif putting it off until the last possible minute. If I had homework due in on the last few periods of the day I would even sneak up to the library that day and do it in lunchtime. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

Not that I'm encouraging that sort of behaviour of course, http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/nono.gif but then I'm sure you've had your fair share of 'homework is important' lectures. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Mind you, I have to start uni in September, so homework (in it's various forms)will be back with vengence I susspect. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif

Woe is me...

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

You are, of course quite, correct. That small lapse in my taste and decency will haunt me for many a long day. Even now, I am thinking up suitable methods of self-mortification in a frantic effort to atone for my wicked, WICKED actions http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/Eyecrazy.gif


Oh, and just in case anyone else wants to know what the fun things to do with Neil I found were, go here
