yes ... Yes. It is that time again 9:05 on Saturday night to join lost souls like Bill Hall in a mindless social experience. (Not there is anything wrong with it)

http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/lightfoot/chat/

PS.
Nice work by John Fowles to make it even easier to log-in - Thanks John!
Bill

Thanks for the appreciation o Charismatic Moderatorperson:-

Having as I have just explained on the Friday chatroom topic now succeeded in getting all three colo(u)red buttons to work I will step in here on Bill's behalf to show them ready for you to use for this evening's session in 2 /2 hours time at 9PM EST
And say that the room is always available. So if anybody wants to use it for any legitimate (and non-perverted) purpose go ahead.
Red button for those with mIRC already installed


click this blue button to enter via the applet/browser method:-

and:-

3.Click the green button for those curious aboot what all the fuss aboot mIRC is all aboot

Some of the chatters in there on your Saturday night regularly have that effect on me too Brian- plus the poor bloke pictured below .



ABDOMINAL WORKOUTS PROVIDED BY SOME OF THE SAT. NIGHT CHATTERS ( NOT STEVO OF COURSE )

Great having you there mate. Remember stay away from the dark side of the force !

I do not understand what on earth you are saying Charwoman.
For one the red button has never linked to "my site" but as I have written a few hundred times it automatically opens mIRC, providing you already have mIRC installed.IF you had read and inwardly digested my fullsome explanation in the parallel Friday chat topic of how I managed to get the red button to open the non-standard .i.e. does not start "http" link:-
irc://irc.dilexnet.net:6667/gordonlightfootchat

you would perhaps understand what is behind my fabulous colored buttons especially the dinky red one,
And for two I clicked on the red button above and blow me down wiv a fevver the chat roon opened absolutely correctly using mIRC as intended.
All I can now say is "if at first you don't succeed suck eggs"
Or try any one of the other red buttons I have sprinkled they all worked when I tested them.
or go to my site for which the link is as before
http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/lightfoot/chat/
and press the first or second red button you find there.
I am now looking forwards to hearing Iron's painful belly laugh in about 90 minutes (it is Friday)

Corfid devotees (especially the chatters) can't wait for the release of the great new 26 Volume manual "The Best of John Fowles - Brief and Simple *** Instructions ".

*** Buyer beware : The term "Simple" in connection with these wonderful guides should be taken in the context of the reader first having completing 4 higher level degree courses in astro physics and a Master's in nano technology and a 4 semester course in deciphering techno- blather and babble. :D

lnk.in is a free forwarding srevice that should go to the URL
irc://irc.dilexnet.net:6667/gordonlightfootchat
that automaticaly opens mIRC. Where there have been at least 10 in the room all evening.
This UBB forum will not show that as a clickable hyperlink but anybody having trouble can copy and paste it into their browser (providing they already have mIRC of course)

Laurel - that's where I got directed to - Link.In...and then it would disappear and say the page could not be displayed before I could even click on the link to CHAT!!!
I imagine my son re-formatting the computer didn't help!
lol
I got in after 30 minutes following the tutorial of installing Mirc....success was mine!
lol
I shall see how things go this evening.....

Codebreaker Steve's mastery has revealed the fiendish Fowlsian plot to block certain people's access from the chat room. There were a few others let in that must have been close to John's blocked list given all the use they are).....No names . Brink & Mousie. (Whoops ,& damn - it slipped out..)

Firstly : mIRC
Clearly this in Char's case means " must Irritate Royal Canadians " (or in Laurel'scase substitute Rotten Creeps for Royal Canadians)

Lnk.in would be "Let No Kooks.in ". Appropriate to both ,but very brave of John to target multi media personality and Queen of the Lightheads .

AHA!!! : There is a connection between the two targets. Its all in their descriptors.The targets were "Queen of the Lightheads (Char) and Queen of the Lightweights" - Laurel. I've cracked another one! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I see Stephen that you are keeping up your habit of behaving like a hooligan and being generally rude.
I am however rather relieved that you have decided to pick on somebody other than me.
A friendly word of warning though having seen them in action together last May in Toronto (ask Rik)
I wouldn't mess with Laurel and Deb too much.
And as for joining the expected throng (throng not thong!!) in Tronno for Massey 2006 don't even think about it.
White American ladies are not used to dealing kindly with the original inhabitants of a continent!!
John Fowles

Gonna send you off to (auction) school and then you’ll be nobody’s fool ...

Standing like a prophet fool he shouts across the ocean

He was known to be know man's fool

May some romantic fool turn on your light

The kinda fool who went to school And had to stand on a stool,

Tells me I'ma pent-up fool In the deep end of the pool

Could it be that I'm the fool There's somethin' wrong with you

Just think about the fool Who by his virtue can be found

Is still acting like a fool I guess I was born to bring you grief

Getting lost like a fool In the forest

have a designated driver, next time Mary, for safety. Or call a taxi and have a friend help you pick up your car next day. better idea than driving drunk or half-drunk.
