  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's on your mind?

Eyeing up Utrecht as a potential city to move to next year, the reasons are threefold:

- I visit a lot anyway and have more friends over there.
- I'll be halfway between Amsterdam and my sister's/niece's place
- I don't want to spend the next twenty years paying for Boris' mistakes

Probably going to happen, better tighten up on my Dutch.

Oh, okay. That's cool. Long development time.

I noticed you didn't say anything about Kitty. Restraining yourself eh? *glares and laughs

Yeah.. video games are becoming more and more complex. Some games can take seven or more years to develop. So if there is going to be a sequel, I'll probably at least be in my mid-30s or pushing 40 before it comes out, lol.

Lol. The game is supposed to last around 30-40 hours too. So I better enjoy every second of it. I am taking my time. Trying to find all the secrets and whatnot. But yeah, I wish games came out quicker. It used to be by the year back in the day.

It builds anticipation. I read they were slowing down production for that reason. And to increase sales.

Last night I spent about an hour trying to open up one safe in that game.. kind of felt ashamed of myself for that one.. lol.

They better not be slowing down production. The wait periods are long enough. I know they switch off between games.

Utrecht is rife with the Dutch directness but balanced out nicely with art and culture. It's like a scaled down version of Rotterdam in that it's incredibly diverse - but traditional enough to remind you that it's very much a Dutch city.

Perfect for me. And it won't make a difference to you whether I'm in London or Utrecht, because both are easy to reach and VERY cheap to travel between. (You just need to swallow your pride for half an hour and board an EasyJet.)

It sounds nice! I love seeing new places and you're the perfect guide. :D

Ever the Uncle. You're a hoot! :p You know I was thinking of Eurorail.

They're spacing them out. It was an article about Microsoft and Sony moving to online platforms. They said it would help sales if new releases were less frequent. That way you get all the games in the series.

As I say, you might find the locals a bit abrasive - but they're softies really. And they're my kind of people too if I'm honest. 'Passive aggressive' is not a word you'd ever use to describe them.

Never taken a Eurorail - it's one of those things I consider but never do. The closest I've done to it was a bullet train in South Korea which was extremely comfortable. Rail is definitely my favourite form of travel.

Flying I don't enjoy at all. I just see it as a chore.

My sensibilities aren't that bad! I like authenticity most. I'm adaptable.

I love trains. It's a nice way to travel and very old world. Flying is faster but I don't enjoy it. I like cruising too. That's my old fashioned side rearing her head.

I want to live expectantly. To immerse myself in life's waters and drink deeply. To experience joy, abundance and side splitting laughter. I want to gallop like the mustang on the plains. With my hair bounding in the wind.

I want to dance until my heart goes thumpity thump. Hold hands and mew contentedly. I want to enjoy the moments and the next and next until I'm spent.

To live with passion and effervescence. Until I'm bubbling over. Sprinkling love droplets all around. Nourishing broken hearts.

That's my destiny. :amen:

Just heard they're filming John Wick 5!!! We've got two installments coming. Sweet. I love Keanu!! :clap:

Never even seen the first one. Nice to see Keanu having a comeback. Weird though, he used to be known as this very boring stiff actor, but suddenly he's pushing 60 and acting more youthful than ever. Of course given his Bill And Ted days this personality trait was always within him.

You've got to see them! Seriously thrilling. :D
