• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

No meme unfortunately, but I come from a Welsh family of teachers, from maths to art and domestic science. Anyway, my grandfather had a shelf of books which included a red leather bound volume roughly 1.5 inches thick, trim size about 7 x 5 ". Its title was 'The Complete Self Educator'. :) Ideal for autodidacts.

I never really understood the cat sitting on the keyboard thing until recently. Our cat never wanted anything to do with me while I was at work until a few weeks ago. He'd been to the vet and had to be sedated (because he's a large, extremely aggressive animal the vets refuse to even look at without sedation). He came back a totally different cat. Has only attacked me once in weeks, and has started harassing me while I work--sitting on my desk, walking over the keyboard. Whatever they gave him was goooood stuff!
