Looks good to me, haras.
Well done :)

[Buenchico]

Well done, Shady. (Did Haras2 help you at all?)

;-)

[haras2]

Thanks!
Think everyone's gone to bed :-))

[seekeerz]

Hi Chris ...I’m off to have breakfast I’ll see you all later :)

[haras2]

No Buenchico, she staggered off to bed hours ago :
I'll be lucky to get any breakfast...

[Buenchico]

I'm still up, Haras2!

(I'm playing with my shortwave transceiver at the moment).

[haras2]

Could you pass on a message to Vladimir for me?
Go home!

[seekeerz]

Ok who’s Vladimir ...or shouldn’t I ask ??

[Buenchico]

^^^ Presumably it's the guy who's not exactly flavour of the month in Ukraine at the moment!

[seekeerz]

Well that was my immediate thought but why is haras putting him up in her spare room ??

[Buenchico]

She'd better not be! She told me that I was the only one allowed to sleep in there!

Oops have I let the cat out of the bag ??
