THIS is why I never blog about people who I've told about my blog, apart from MY friend E but she is very good about that sort of thing so it is fine. Ha!

Was meant to be sarcastic. If that's not what you said then I got it wrong. I was laughing at that point. No offence intended. That's why I didn't use your name. You're not a geek. I'm the one thinking: "I'm going to write this up on my blog." Also - I didn't know you read this. Cheers. Damn - that’s the trouble when you quote your friends. Was meant to be sarcastic.

You’re not a geek. I’m the one thinking: “I’m going to write this up on my blog.”

Well, ok so I am, but I've got a motorbike, so that's alright. I'm a chic geek. … and another thing, “Oh, but teleportation exists” - I was totally misquoted, you make me sound like a wargaming sci-fi geek.

K's argument was that it wouldn't be the same photo unless you physically scraped the magnetic particles off the harddrive and moved them to their ultimate destination. He did eventually concur that this wasn't necessary after intelligent reasoning by myself, but I was too sober to remember what I said.

We went on to talk about Buddhism and reincarnation. And if animals were lower lifeforms than humans. AND the washing machine died last week and a new one was delivered today, but I didn't mention that. Spooky. Woah.

Worst sober conversation ever... you really must try harder mate. Some pointers: You need to veer off-topic more frequently, there were several openings in that conversation to nip out for a quick tete-a-tete on Buddhism or reincarnation, ditto a discussion on how electronic files are structured. You also missed any mention of washing machines or other such domestic appliances. They always seem to figure in our sober conversations. Yes, I said sober! Is that it? Worst sober conversation ever… you really must try harder mate.
