Ray has shifted into a new home and doesn't yet have internet access. Then he's visiting NZ. :wink:

Graham,

I find some of your English usages very interesting because they don't exist in the US:

"fortnight", "shifting into a new home". As opposed to "two weeks" and "moving into a new home".

If I used these expressions here, I am sure no one would understand what I'm talking about.

I do like Graham's NZ talking and I understand him perfectly well :D

Sounds like all is well. We'll be looking forward to the updates.

I recently purchased Deep Rybka 3 Aquarium from Convekta (for download). I'm waiting for my message on how and where to d/l my purchase. I expect I'll have it on my PC before October... :wink:

Hi Norm,

I guess it's obvious that the white NZ population has British roots. :wink:
For those who think I'm being racist by using the term "white", the Maori were in NZ before the white settlers started arriving in the mid to late 1800s.
These days, whenever a NZ sports team plays another country, the national anthem gets sung in both Maori and English.

Cheers, Graham.

Ray did a live update while he was here

Ray did a live update while he was here for those interested.
He's now back home and should get internet hooked up before the weekend, so hopefully business as usual after that.

Cheers, Graham.

Hi Graham,

Any idea why the CCRL Discussion Board http://kirr.homeunix.org/chess/discussion-board... has been down the last 3-4 days?
