And nowww, the end is here...

[The Curmudgeon]

Well, OK, not The End as such, but The Curmudgeon WILL be leaving you all for two whole weeks.

Yes, even Irresponsible Hate Mongers need breaks, you know. And I'll be taking mine in Italy, thank you very much.

So I head off at the obscene time of 4am on Sunday morning, so I'll be around for about... oooh, a day more at least. Just thought I'd give you plenty of heads up so you can start missing me.

Seriously though, I think we're all at the stage now where this place pretty much "runs" itself, so feel free to keep insulting the bad things and praising the good things. It's The Fortress way.

Till once again we meet, my friends... fare well!

No, I'm not back just yet, I'm just popping in on this Godforsaken internet cafe. Here's a quick note; don't get too used to the buttons on your keyboard, cos they don't resemble anything on Italian keyboards.

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE AT KEY??

The Curmudgeon,

Dunno if you're gonna read this before you return home, but try pressing the "ALT GR" button (the first small button to the right of the SPACE BAR) and then the number 2 at the number keys located towards the top (not the ones located to the far right of the keyboard).

Hope it helps?!?

Best Regards,

Hey man

Thanks for the info, I got there in the end. But man, that is some high-stress situation.. you put a "euro" in, you get twelve minutes, which all the while are ticking away before your eyes. You have to get the money situations sorted first and then try and look at any e-mails etc, and then you can't find things like the _ key or the @ key, things you just take for granted, and all the while your time is slowly ... running... out.

Gaaah. Awful. But still, The Curmudgeon is back in business and The Fortress is once again fully manned.

We have a LOT of catching up to do!
