OT - Wanted to say "hello"

[Aethelred 0]

Um, hello! If you hang around the CU Forums you know me already, if not I am a collector of George III who is based in the US.

[Chris Perkins 228]

Wow, all of a sudden there were 3 new American looking faces!

Sylvester did mention he would go recruting tonight, and he has obviously left the Kings shilling in the bottom of your glasses.

Welcome.

Are you by any chance the chap who bought the George III Coin book off me earlier, and knows Tom?

The dead king arrives

Howdy Chris ! Just another crazy American here - pay no attention I just love to torment Sylvester and cause him to go on another buying spree

He never usually needs all that much persuading does he With all his student loans going on coins I wonder what he uses for books, or what he eats?

I just happen to be the same chap!

By the way you had better watch out, with too many Americans running around you guys may start talking funny!

[Chris Perkins 228]

I sometimes think there must only be about 50 serious coin collectors in the world....And I probably know 45 of them! And you didn't find this place without being told about it first?

Eats ?? Why spend money that could be well used on coins on superfluous items like food

Yeah - Sylvester needs some gentle persuasion from time to time. Why I've seen him go a month or more without buying a coin

That's when I usually post a pic of some gold doo-dad and get him all excited

I believe most of the time 48 of them are bidding against me when I am after that coin I've been looking for!

Hmmmm - well I seriously hope I would be considered one of the 5 you don't know. And the dead king there - he's another

Me serious? Never!

We most certainly will not! You'll find us very much set in our ways. You'd better be careful you don't start speaking and spelling properly. (Watch out for Emperor Oli )

The last regular American hasn't been back for quite a while after I think I may have offended her

What is a "regular American" Chris?

I guess that means my car has a hood not a bonnet, have no "u" in my color and don't get to see the Queen at Christmas?

[GDJMSP 0]

Me serious? Never!

Oh c'mon now !! You can't get much more serious than dead now can you ??

We most certainly will not! You'll find us very much set in our ways. You'd better be careful you don't start speaking and spelling properly. (Watch out for Emperor Oli )

Now why would I ever want to do that ?? A hillbilly transplanted into the South and then the West ? Boy Howdy - you talk about talkin funny

No I meant, the last American to use this forum on a regular basis. I couldn't possibly say what a 'regular American' was, as I'm quite sure you have a diverse and varied culture, and it would be far to complicated to generalise. I'll tell you when I've been to America and seen for myself.

I live in Germany, so I'm afraid I miss the Queens speech too.

[Aethelred 0]

Right, you don't know talking funny until you have lived in the Southern USA!

[Aethelred 0]

So, what did you do that offended her?

[Chris Perkins 228]

So, what did you do that offended her?

Well, in case she comes back, I won't say.

Don't want to go airing dirty laundry, but it was nothing to do with the way she spoke/spelled. I said something that i think she must have taken as being quite rude.

[Aethelred 0]

Can't please everyone now can we?

Heyho chaps. What's OT in the title meant to mean - ornate trident?!

[Half Penny Jon 0]

I thought it was "ornamental trident", not ornate trident.

[Emperor Oli 0]

Hmm apparently it is. Oh well I don't do Victorian coins!

[Aethelred 0]

Heyho chaps. What's OT in the title meant to mean - ornate trident?!

Just means "off topic."

[wybrit 2]

You have to excuse aethelred. His accent is a bit difficult to understand.

Well it's from talking through those dead lips don't ya know
