You have editing rights over moii?. And I, a scholar?
I'll just bet this has something to with my supposed misspelling of Thermopully, Thermopile, Tharyrimpley, Thramopolly or whatever in blue blazers I didn't - aparrently - get right. Hurrumph!
You don't watch out, I'll take my zyston and hoplon and hypaspist off home!
Never fear, sir, I was referring to my editing rights for the main site, with which I can publish articles, etc.
I will still maintain my rights over your posts in this forum, anyway, in my capacity as somatophylax. So beware, thou posturer, thou poltroon, thou knave.

Ah hah Amyntoros! That got a bite then! I shall have to dig out my seventies flared trousers, platform shoes and.....oh oh...what happened to the size twenty-eight waist??
I shall need a contact number lest I look for someone old and stodgy attempting to look like Mortisha Adams at the Algonquin…..
Hmmm ... that could do it. Except that I'm a blonde.
And, boy, are we waaaay off-topic now. (I sent you a PM with phone numbers.)

I can arrange most anything Marcus....except an air ticket. I will be in Greece though...
It would appear that the local weather gods are arranging acclimatisation for us: bucketing down and and 18c. Been that way most of the summer! Problem is, it's localised to the coastal strip: dams empty everywhere here (the largest on the eastern seaboard - Eucumbene at some nine Sydney harbours - part of the massive "Snowy" scheme @ 22%)
Deduct ten degrees and I"m there!

Not even - tomorrow's high for NYC is predicted at 13c. And you're in the midst of summer while it's supposed to be winter here. Something funny is going on, weatherwise.

Okay ... so far in this thread you've described me as motherly, old, stodgy, and now schoolmarmly! I may well bring a ruler along with me 'cause you deserve a good whack!

My mother, were she still alive, would not disagree.
