[cats are awesome]

A notice to all my friends and neighbors I will be taking a break from everything for a few days.

I had a bad day yesterday finding out my cat that has been my family and sole living companion for the last 11 years needed surgery and got ready for that but had even worse news today that they found tumors in his lungs.
So my cat was put down this afternoon and I cant really concentrate on anything at all atm I'm afraid.

I might check into the forum but I wont be playing or sending gifts for a few days so you all know what has happened.

I will be back as soon as I feel better and I will try to best to return any gifts once I do but I wont be returning anything for a few days so please hold gifts for now.

Take all the time you need @Fencat I know exactly how you feel. Take care of yourself.

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss...

I too have had pets that meant the world to me... They helped when I was down, made me feel better when I was sick, comforted me in their own way when I was hurting and were the best friends you could ever ask for. All they wanted, was to be with you. For you to love them, take care of them, play with them and be part of the family....

I still love and miss them all. and will continue to love and miss them until we're together again at Rainbow Bridge...

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

14 yrs ago we had to put down my husbands beloved cat and a friend sent me that poem, glad to see it is still going around.

You may find this helpful ? It is a list compiled by Flip123 some time ago.

Also @flyfire I have seen it posted that if you leave that fuel-3 in the gift basket, it will change into a master plan when you reach the proper level. I've never tested it but sounds like it would work.

Morning all.

I have sent out my last batch of sickles this morning. We are busy this weekend so I hit complete. I will try to send out gifts tomorrow, but I can't promise.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

@jimstreet I sent requests from both of my games. I only have 5 planetariums each game, but unless you're using FIN that should be enough.

Seen and accepted. Thanks!!

 

[jimstreet]

No gifts today, since a double load went out yesterday. Still no new tree of life drops.

Paperless game just started mcc3 upgrade, so I am back to almost zero coins. I have all the building items so it should finish up with no problem.

Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen (Friday 24th March 16.50pm GMT London)

When you are gifting to me please focus on the following gift items, if you are able to do so, -Flight Catering, Fruit Lollipops, Earplugs and Oscillating Beacon - they are in great demand.

@Harcourt - many thanks for the recent flight catering, it was very well timed and greatly needed.

Regards
Captain WH Rollins

That is interesting. I will test that tomorrow.

I had an idea real money would be involved, and it is ok, if you are happy to invest in your game, you should. As for myself, I have just enough green notes for two plots of land when the window re-opens. Then to decide where best to place them and to get the best out of each plot.

Isn't is wonderful to have a game where some can spend small amounts of money, some spend huge amounts of money, and some spend no money at all, yet we all are playing together, but with different strategies.

At this point for me, I would have to wait 27 weeks to get enough greenies from GI to buy 2 plots of land, and that would be sale price. And I hear it goes a lot higher than 40/80 per plot.

I'm quite disappointed they didn't offer the land expansion sale this week.

Everytime I re-read it, it makes me cry.

Weekendcode *superfriday24*

Not getting anything further with the event, since my planes drop nothing when they return. Have now 3 items collected, that's all I got.
Hope for next year.

Think GI has forgotten the land expansion the last 2 weeks and could by one

Wish you all a very nice weekend

 

[jimstreet]

60 gifts out this evening. Only tree of life drops are for items of which I already have three.

Slowly moving back to non-event gifting as the event winds down for recipients.

Yes, you are quite right - it really is most annoying having to wait another week before the land discount window to re-opens.

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen (Saturday 25th March 06.10am GMT London)

I just wanted to write and express my thanks to all of you who responded so quickly to my distress call of yesterday, for Flight Catering, Fruit Lollipops, Earplugs and Oscillating Beacon - since posting more than 12 hours ago. It has allowed me to fly my heavier planes into the air, and fingers crossed, allow me to set a new passengers carried personal record, towards The LG Alliance total, before the counter reset's on Sunday evening.

International Rescue could not have done better.

Serious lags in the servers this morning for me @06:00 UTC-6 or so.
Trying to land rockets, and can't click on shuttle on airstrip.
Gifting lag about 5-10 minutes on just trying to collect what was gifted.
Am going to wait after morning errands, about noontime for me before I check again and resume the gifting thing.
@flyfire okay no problem

Ken

Can you help me out with some self balancing scooters?
Just sent a friend request from my main account and my QANTAS support accountss

Is there something I can send you?

SATURDAY 3/25/2017
ANF1 @Mike47 to @Steve26 . There seems to be quite a few regulars in the ZZZzzz mode. And Unsure if sending gifts will get lost in cyberspace or not, i have passed by them. I know one of my own games was in Zzzz mode, (not by my choice) and gift sent never came through.
ANF2 @Jaume to @skiv
ANF3 @Airport Arne to @KingKong
ANF4 @JazzyJKC CaptJKC to @KingKong

spare wire got wrapped around someone else's spare propeller along the way.
Personally, I think it's all got to do with these accusations of wiretapping everyone. So Gi, is blaming Pugsley Adams over their running North Korea, President Trump is blaming it all on Fox News, and CNN staff all got abducted by illegal aliens from outer space.
Funny how GI servers got lagged and Windows servers are down.
Homeland Security is looking through our emails for anything marked with [C]

Doesn't Elvis returning belong somewhere in that mix?

Happy Mothers day to all mothers in the gang, and to the mothers of all players (may only be the Brits today though!!!). I lost my mother last July and am feeling it today, so make the most and love your Mum today. @Rainer I am thinking of you today as well.
