MG MGA - Skype

I had first contact with Ian Fraser in Australia this morning (or evening for him) using Skype . It's actually rather nice to be able to talk to someone who has been typing away here and exchanging messages for a while.

Does anyone else on here use Skype - is this a way that we could extend the happy atmosphere of this BBS (in an environment free of air filter salesmen of course....)

Yes, I do. If anyone would like to contact me, email for my Skype name!

Bl**dy H*ll

What did I do to be called an Australian?

I'm gonna die of shame, I wont be able to hold my head up for ever more, people will think that I underarm bowl.

O the shame.....
Ian Fraser

All New Zealanders secretly wish they were Australians anyway!

No way - we have better looking sheep!

I apologise for the typo in the most profuse way I can, and promise never to repeat such unpardonable aspersions on your integrity and manhood ever again.

For those who don't understand, it's about as bad as calling a Canadian an American...

(Oh, Oh, that's going to get me in REAL trouble now.....)

Hi Dominic
Apology unreservedly accepted.

I can't think of a suitable riposte at the moment - perhaps something will occur later :)

Re Skype - yes I'm on, Dominic was my first call, an amazingly easy system, but Win XP is required.

The Skype search engine will find me at my email address. (yintop@ihug.co.nz)

Cheers

A A....Dominic....A Canadian Americain..A..perish the thought. We will never give up our beloved Red coated RCMP...A... for Marine Blue....A... and there is no way that the Americains will ever get their hands on our beloved Canada Post Dog sled delievery team...A.

My goodness what would I due if i didn't have to pay US exchange and duties on all of the MGA parts I bought from Moss. I couldn't handle it.

PS: do we have Skype here in Canada....A.. and what is it anyway??? Gord lol

At the risk of starting a war, I humbley submit that Canadians are, in fact, Americans. As are, technically, all people who live in either North America or South America. Not really sure how US citizens came to be the only ones referred to as Americans. (Yes, I'm aware it's in the name of our country) :)
Oh, and I have no idea what Skype is. Guess I'll have to look it up.

Hi guys from that big land mass north of Panamar.


Have a look at www.skype.com

Has its limitations, but you can make free phone calls around the world.

You will need Win XP or 2000 or Mac osx, or Linux. (wont work on win 95/98/98se)
A reasonably fast internet conection.
A microphone connected to your sound card.
Headphones ditto.
Web camera (optional)

LOL. There are somedays I wish I could say I was not "American" either. As a denizen of the United (well, mostly) States of America, I cannot blame my Canadian brothers for maintaining their integrity either. Seems like history and the english language (or is it now the "American" language??) has corrupted the rest of the world's abilitiy to understand easily who's who over here.
