That’s a definite maybe.

I kind of don’t – but I’ve had some odd experiences in spooky Welsh castles in the middle of the night.

I know, they were shut, but we were kids and it was a challenge!

Currently we have over a dozen we use a lot (computers (4), smart phones (2), video games consoles (5), bluray player (1), hand-held video game systems (3), ipad (1)), plus more in cupboards or in the garage. If we have a few people over our internet slows to a crawl as a result. And this is after my STBE left and took some of her gadgets with her (at least 4) and I sold a few I didn’t use much.

Modern Life gone crazy!!

Hm…i have 2 laptops and a desktop currently running, a phone and a tablet, a couple more back up old phones, an xbox 360, an old palm IIIe somewhere, a c64, an SNES, a gamecube, an SGI O2, random cisco routers/switches, an older HP dual Xeon server (too insane to run now), a DS Lite that can run applications, a couple of IBM netvistas propping things up, oh and my cheap chinese mp3 player, those are all the gadgets I consider to be computers. This isn’t counting the network printer, the scanner, the HP terminal, the Ion Tape2PC, hmm what about the gt-10B bass effects box which is definitely a computer of sorts. I’ve got a couple of old dvd/vhs players and a set-top box too. That’s a bit of a list isn’t it. I haven’t counted the bass guitars (4), or the acoustic guitar, or the midi keyboard though. I have a kazoo too. I want to buy a ukulele sometime and learn it. I used to have more computers than that about 10 years ago, but I had to downsize.

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

No on the basis that if i was a ghost and could do anything a ghost could do why on earth would i spend my time bothering with stupid humans who run away only to come back and try harder to annoy you so you leave anyway. Far better to move from portal to dimension and everywhere in between than wasting time haunting a castle that you cant even repair.

 

As for gadgets it depends on what you classify as a “gadget”. Is a tin-opener a gadget? I have the same as most folk; laptop, PC (tho rarely use it), ipod, [crappy] phone, tv, washing machine, oven, fridge, freezer, printer, legs, arms.

[SNIP]

I have two recurring ones, a nightmare and a bad dream, luckily not too often.

1) Stuck in a room with lots of cobwebs and big hairy spiders

2) About to travel overseas; the flight is at 6.30am and the alarm wakes me at 5.45am and I haven’t packed yet

Ah, yes, nightmares… I suffer from insomnia and when I can finally sleep I usually wake up in the middle of a nightmare…

All the time. Sometimes when the forum is being boring (don’t tell Annadog, or she’ll AD40-fy me) I go trawling half-dead threads, and I inevitably end up thanking posts that were made years ago.

I’ve always wanted a tall blonde Russian young female to stalk me but so far I haven’t been lucky.
