Subject: [Audyssey] desktop explosion was: o.t. The desktop that exploded

Well, it all began on one fine and sunny morning, when I recieved an E-mail 
from king pixifus lord of pixies to attend his royal banquit.

I've been a long standing member fof the royal society for the prevention of

cruelty to dragons, - and I'd met his pixosity at one of our 
meetings, - we'd actually had an interesting chat about how to cure 
scale shedding of the American blue princess muncher breed of dragon.

I phoned my local magic carpet service to order one to the pixy king's 
palace,  however they were absolutely and totally late.

they claime this was because of long standing tale backs in the upper 
atmosphere, - but I just think ginis are lazy gits by nature!

so I walked in late, right in the middle of the pixy king's daughter singing

a rather pretty song about some goblins she'd enchanted. It completely put 
her off her step,  and while I tried to explain, she was very put 
out,  so much so she conjured a gremlin assassin and sent it after me.

I was able to convince her that it had been a mistake by undertaking a long 
and boring quest involving three drunken elves,a mysterious guarden, some 
magic apples,  a small cactus and a bottle of washing up liquid which 
I'll tell you about some other time,  but sinse it took me such a long 
time to sort all this out the gremlins bombed my flat in my absense,   
and so my desktop exploded.

I got a full appology from the pixies along with a huge bag of pixy 
gold,  which I used to buy the desktop I've got now,  and these days

I use "wrent a witch" when I need transport,  brooms are slower, but 
witches are more reliable.

Btw, actually "exploded" is just a bit of exaggeration on my part,  my 
harddrive just physically stopped working, and was no longer able to 
load,  however I much prefer the above story,  far more fun!

Beware the grue!

Dark.
