Please don't go...take a break instead !

Feeling tired? Going to bed later than planned?

Meant to put the dinner on an hour ago, but WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE?

You must be in Avalon land

Actually, I was going to start a thread, mirroring my own growing addiction to logging in daily, to catch up with the Arthurian landscape, but I thought instead, with having so many friends and nice faces galloping out of court and over the hills and into the distance it got me thinking about all the free time they're going to have now. Maybe they're on to something ?!

So I'm thinking, instead of getting despondent or goo-eyed in front of your monitor, why not take a break and go and do something you love doing, right now? ... and come back later and tell us about it. (Ok.. I see a major hole in my logic...whatever you do is probably seriously off topic for Avalon - unless you're building a hydroponics plant

- but maybe finding a balance between being online and offline is not so silly as it sounds.)

Anyone else having trouble finding the off switch on their PC lately? It used to be (for me) because we had to be 'up' on the impending doom. Now that the doom seems to be a little further away, Avalon to me seems currently more about soap than hope.

So my question to you, is:

What else could you be doing with all the extra hours that you are currently spending here?

You know we've got plenty of time yet, till the Summer of Hell

So I'd love to hear your thoughts...

So... take your hands from the keyboard, or the pointer from the scroll bar...and move it to the start icon...click on shutdown...c'mon...you can do it....

there.. the computer's off.

I'm going to go read a book and have a nice cup of tea ! Who-hoo !
