I've got the jewellery, and I'm off to Egypt for a week in January so I'll work on the tan :-) You said something along the line of people not catching the meaning behind the A-team, could you elaborate? I must admit I have a soft spot for it, though people may not immediately catch the Russian connection. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Oh, it was just a silly joke about the letter name: 'A' is /a/ in Russian, but all English speakers will read /ei/...
You could easily connect that with good ol' 'in Soviet Russia...' or make whatever other jokes you want :) Edited by mrwarper on 06 December 2012 at 2:56pm 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

So, is anyone up for a Skype session on Sunday evening, which may be our last as Team Sputnik? I have
set the alarm on my cell phone to go off at 10 minutes to 8, Norway time and would love some conversation partners. I particularly hope Tecktight can join us, since she was the muse and the instigator of our Skype sessions. Anyone? Any suggestions for topic, or do we just ramble freely as we use to?

I will be there, but I do have uni stuff to do since this month is a nightmare, so maybe
not 2,5 hours ;). And if Tecktight is not there I will just handle the logistics 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

So people, are you still up for the Skype session today? I was thinking of inviting the new guys as well, even in such a short notice.

I was sort of thinking of making this as the last team Sputnik session, and 6 people have indicated their interest for today so far, so I would perhaps wait until next session to include all the newbies. Both Tecktight and mrwarper expect to join us and Woodsei was going to try. I am also hoping that some of the other members of team Sputnik would join in, but the ones I have mentioned are the only ones I have been in contact with.
