We can never forget the revolutionary floppy disk that was prone to much breakage in our bags. Ah, now I feel exmphatically nostalic about a time that I barely remember.
Greetings, fellow earth inhabiters. I go by the names Xena or Nadia, you may choose to call me whichever tickles your fancy. I'm fond of harbour cruises, green capsicum, Herald paper crosswords and hangnails. I hope that my eccentric (and slightly prretentious) mannerisms will be well accepted here, and look forward to being either one of the following possibilites:
1. To be an immensely popular member, adored by all, soon to be elevated to a majestic state soon. 2. To be immediately disliked and avoided, member status short of deletion. 3. To be calmly indifferent about my new surroundings, and having everyone regard me casually as they would any other member.
I'm really rooting for number one. Having a fancy e-tiara would really make my day. And now, my lengthy introduction comes to a screeching halt. =)

Obviously a Sydney-sider, so we share a common bond. Pretentious is two bonds, but the Herald crossword takes over 7 minutes to solve, so I am afraid that negates all. Gidday and welcome to FT, Xadia and Nena!

Ah, I gave away my presence as a Sydney-sider? Very perceptive you are, but it certainly is nice to see someone else from the same area as myself!
Why are you confused, Quiz_Beagle?
Thanks for the welcomes, looking forward to hanging around!

I'm intrigued!
I guess, yet again, I missed something! Ah, well!

What seems to be the prob, Sue? I would like to know, so that I don't repeat it.

Do ye have a dual account, DivineMs? Are you trolling this site with an extra personality, behaviour that is frowned upon?
Nay, I don't believe that you are. No one likes a suck up.

No dual account, and not lurking. Just wondering.
