We have a saying in French: Charité bien ordonnée commence par soi-même. Charity starts with taking good care of oneself. Which is why I just bought a set of dinner plates at Habitat. On sale.

Hmm. Not sure how that MAP tag is supposed to work, but it looks neat. Sort of

Oops, sorry, I'm afraid there was a slight mishap with the spatio-temporal manipulator. No worry, though. Just follow the signs that say "RER", then change at Châtelet les Halles to line B for Charles de Gaulle airport. You'll be back home in no time. Unless there's a strike of course. Or a technical incident. Or volcanic ashes. Well, good luck

Change what at Chatelet les Halles? My mind? My currency? My reality?
Does line B go to slot A that goes to ....?
I thought de Gaulle was dead! How can he fly a plane?

And what's this gray powdery stuff floating down on the empty runway??

Curse your evil spatio-temporal manipulator!!! At least you could have sent me somewhere warm!!!

GeoffC · 05-12-2010, 08:43 AM

Now now, everybody stay calm, the situation is under control. All you have to do at Châtelet les Halles is cross the platform and board the train there. Well, just make sure it goes to the airport, or have defensive weapons at the ready if you get lost in the suburbs

And don't call my spatio-temporal manipulator evil. It's very well-intentioned but sometimes a little over-eager. You have hurt it, and now I'll have to spend hours comforting it. And who knows what it'll do while it's upset?

It will probably dump me in Oz land - home of the world's most poisonous and vicious spiders!!

Meanwhile I'll just cross the platform and ... there's no train here. So I'll just buy a flick knife from this nice laddy and head for the suburbs. C'mon vr - we need to carjack someone and get to the airport!
