Not kicking, prodding: I was checking if you were OK. 
Itās alright Yellowcake, some of these northern hemisphere types can be a little soft. If all else fails, simply smile and nod slowly when they become too obtuse.
face palmā¦ oh that - heh, yeah, nah. nothing so controversial - was the name of my old band when I had dredlocks and a six pack.
I am guessing Yellowcake was thinking of yellow cake with icing. And isnāt that sweet? Or perhaps Yellowcake is playing it coy until you try yourself a sliceā¦
yeah but "Novel in just short of a day, like not quite, but really close "or āNijsoadlnqbrcā just doesnāt have the same ring to it hey
I forgot about that I normally have it done by 5 or 6 anyway 
That is 5 or 6 in the evening
Hi! Itās 00:17 on my computer but I havenāt received my email and info pack yet.
Should I be worried?
What if it isnāt here in the morning?
Or are you just working through a long list and mine might not arrive until later?
Not that Iām panicking or anything ā¦
I am thinking: the clock doesnāt start ticking until the pig squeals.

It will turn up when its ready and not a moment before 8)
We are WRITING a NiaD. No one said we had to read.
Oh sorry Piggy, Iāve just gone back a page and see that youāve already said that you might be 30 minutes late, so I wonāt worry yet.
Iāll just put my feet up, brew up a fresh pot and replace the batteries in my pacemaker
Is everybody busy writing? 'Cause, nothing in my inbox (or spam folder) yet.
/me gnaws fingernails
Forget that, gonna go get dinner.

Edited to add: Oh nevermind! For some reason, thereās a 1 hour difference between my time and systemās Eastern time.
30 minutes has expired. 
Not that Iām in my annual early NiaD panic or anything.
Howās everyone doing? Has anyone received anything yet? I suppose if you have, you wont be on this forum anymore!
???
I guess Iāll have one more smoke before it all beginsā¦
Maybe yellowcake was a little too close to piggy and now our leader is a cooked side of baconā¦
Mm mm. Bacon.
And as you can see yellowcake has been assimilated.
my uranium os far too refined to be used on Bacon ā¦
hmmm bacon ā¦
ALL PACKS ARE NOW FINISHEDā¦ you should start seeing them in your inboxes in the next few minutes!
