This has gone far enough.

Every now and then a Llamasoftie will say something interesting. Honestly! This is where we will keep these topics so that they don't get deleted.

Well, I'm surprised/confused/amazed etc with this whole situation, and I don't really want to know more about the crap flying around. My poor little brain can only cope with my own life and rapidly coredumps when fed multiple datastreams of negativity, so I'm not looking for any more than this.

I discovered that all of us need something to make us complete, to attain balance..and I found that for myself. I always used to think that I never needed anyone else but myself, but I was proved wrong, and glad to be so proved.

If you found what you need, then good luck to you. Cheers! *raises glass*

Best to the both of you. This is a huge thread, probably the biggest I've seen. :) It's nice to see everyone come together like this.

Good enough. It's quality, not quantity. Just look at Yak's post here, it only counted as 1, yet it was a really quality post. :wink:

Jeff - A courageous and uplifting post.

I think all the replys in this thread show the level of support you have here on YakYak. Best wishes for the future to both you and Giles.

Good luck to both of you. :D

Yep, good wishes and the best of luck to the both of you for the future 8); don't let the actions of a few scallywags grind you down.

Like others though, I was a bit unnerved by the post title 8O; but soon all was revealed to be OK again, so that's good :)

What more can be said that has not been already? A fucking beautiful post, about beautiful guys, regarding a beautiful blossoming happiness (and a touch of beautiful coding on the side).

Brings a tear to my eye this does... :oops: :lol:

I know little of Giles other than his posts, but they're bloody fantastic! :D Always entertaining, witty and sensitive. I wanna see your cooking skills, dude... i never mentioned the "carbonara pizza" I saw in Budgens, did I? Bechamel sauce on a pizza?? WTF??? Funnily enough, it said, "AUTHENTIC ITALIAN STYLE" -- can you vouch for that?

You two = perfect sense. Be excellent to each other!! 8)

I panicked when i read the sentence in which Yak threatens to pull out of the forum but taking the following 10 pages i hope that's not going to happen.
Jeff is one of the swetest people i know. I never met Giles personally but from his posts he seems to be equally sweet. I think it's great you managed to meet each other. :D
As for someone named Viking posting elsewhere whatever - i haven't read it since i never visited WoTR* - but i wouldn't take serious someone who is choosing anonimity to stir trouble. Someone may be jeallous, someone may be over protective but if someone was a real friend either would address the subject directly to you or at least would identify himself when exposing his thoughts. Don't let whomever that individual is, spoil this forum or the other which are good for so many, including you both, Jeff and Giles.
And frankly speaking sending hatemail to someone who has just gone thru surgery is to say the least quite insentive and unfluffy.

And Fluffy hugs to you both, and everybody else who wants or needs them.
_________________________
* rereading this i though i bettert clarify i don't have anything agains WoTR. Never checked it because i don't want to get addicted to a third forum. This one (by far the best, and the fluffier, and the portuguese one which brings back some of my culture) are as much as i can handle timewise without getting into trouble.
