The time has come

[Oi_Skinhead]

Well, im sorry to have to leave you all, but im off to Africa (anybody who sings the Toto song will be shot), the land of the hippo and the honey badger.
Weather ill be back or not depends really. If i pass the course im going on, ill be back in 8-10 weeks. If i fail, im probly not coming back :p
I can, luckily, tell you when ill be going, and thats on sunday afternoon. Between now and then, i will probably be drunk.

[Phunky Philosophy]

Good luck man!

[dinowoman]

Wow! An 8-10 week course in Africa? That sounds like quite an adventure. No wonder you wanted to keep it as a surprise. What is it? A survival course?

Hope you have a great time, and all the best, whatever it is you're going to be doing there. :p (And try to make it back in one piece!)

[Crystal Shards]

I BLESSED THE RAINS DOWN IN AAAAFRICAAAA

[Phunky Philosophy]

GONNA TAKE SOME TIME OFF TO DO THE THINGS WE NEVER HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

[Panic!]

A skinhead in Africa? Sounds like we have a sitcom on out hands!

But seriously, good luck! Hope to see you around in a few months.

[Crystal Shards]

I HEAR THE DRUMS ECHOING TONIGHT
BUT SHE HEARS ONLY WHISPERS OF SOME QUIET CONVERSAAAAAAATION
SHE'S COMING IN 12:30 FLIGHT
THE MOONLIT WINGS REFLECT THE STARS THAT GUIDE ME TOWARDS SALVAAAAATION
I STOPPED AN OLD MAN ALONG THE WAY
HOPING TO FIND SOME OLD FORGOTTEN WORDS OR ANCIENT MEEEELODIEEEEEES
HE TURNED TO ME AS IF TO SAY
HURRY BOY IT'S WAITING THERE FOR YOUUUUUU

[YourImaginaryFriend]

Don't let the aboriginals give you aids or something.

[Phunky Philosophy]

I bless the raaaains down in aaaaaaaafricaaaaaaaaa
Gonna take some time to do the things we neveeer haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

[Piggie]

dude... I demand pictures. Henry in Africa. it's a sitcom waiting to happen.

*continues singing the ToTo song*

[Oi_Skinhead]

Right, im gonna bring... let me see... THREE lions back, poke them a bit so that theyre really annoyed, then mail one to each person who was singing.

Dino, in answer to your question, its actually a field guide course. Naturally, it would help if i knew what a field guide does, but you cant have everything. All i know is that i need a knife and a full first aid kit, so it should be fun.

With traditional Henry-style organisation, everything that should have been sorted out a month ago is getting sorted out tomorrow. Has anybody seen my passport?

[KatieKat]

I knew! Good luck finding your passport. I'll be staying here drawing pretty pictures. And don't die!

[Zeth]

dude... I demand pictures. Henry in Africa. it's a sitcom waiting to happen.
Ditto. Pictures or GTFO and STAY out.

Seriously though, I need to see proof. :]
Have fun.

[David]

Have fun! And don't kill anything I wouldn't kill.

[Oi_Skinhead]

Well, luckily i actually managed to get hold of a camera, so as long as my landlord doesnt notice its gone missing before i get on the plane, youll get pictures.
As for killing, well, that depends on who i end up with...

[Zeth]

As for killing, well, that depends on who i end up with...
Noncommittal yet hopeful. This is a good answer.

[Anne Brunner]

Watch out for imaginary giraffes and very, very real rhinos.

[strawberry_sparkles]

Watch out for imaginary giraffes and very, very real rhinos.

Or more so, they should watch out for skinhead.

[Oi_Skinhead]

Hehe, well, only one way to find out who should watch out for who. Catch ya all in a few weeks. Have fun!

[Phunky Philosophy]

Good luck man.

[strawberry_sparkles]

Good luck, Henry. Have fun with the hot weather. :blush: Or something.

But really, good luck.

[Adgokou1983]

Good luck in Africa. If you see talking penguins, make sure to be on their side.

[KatieKat]

Good luck, Henry. Have fun with the hot weather. :blush: Or something.

But really, good luck.

He was already sunburned before he left. :p

[strawberry_sparkles]

He was already sunburned before he left. :p

Well then, isn't my well-wishing off to a great start, then?

[Crystal Shards]

Oh Jesus. The dude's gonna get cancer.

[strawberry_sparkles]

Oh Jesus. The dude's gonna get cancer.

Haha, nice to see your optimism shine through, Crystal. I hope I haven't cursed him to getting skin cancer. That would suck.

[Simba]

I hope you don't get eaten by a bunch of hungry lions.

[Adgokou1983]

I hope you don't get eaten by a bunch of hungry lions.

Actually lions are quite nonthreatening. Didn't you see that Southpark?

[dinowoman]

I'm sure you've already gone by now (it being well past afternoon), so I hope you had a good time. There, you can read that when you get back. :p

[Anne Brunner]

Oh. In that case, WELCOME BACK! :D

[Oi_Skinhead]

Im back! And just so you know, i have no idea whats happened while i was gone because i really cant bring myself to go through 12 pages of new posts. So, huonsay! Man, i gotta get writing.

[Panic!]

Welcome back, Henry! Had a good time I hope?

[dinowoman]

Good to see you back! And from all the emails that Katie posted, it sounds like you had a rather interesting time (if that's the right word for it :p).

[KatieKat]

I'm willing to bet that even I didn't get the full story and that "interesting" doesn't cover half. :p

[strawberry_sparkles]

Hi!

How as Africa? Hot?

[Anne Brunner]

*attacks*
He's alive! And hopefully still has all of his appendages attached!

[David]

Welcome back! Where's the chariot?

[Infernus Animositas]

I agree with David. Where the bloody hell is your pet Lion that loveded you so much :D

Also, did you happen to get any action from those lasses you mentioned in the e-mails :P

[Crystal Shards]

YOU BLESSED THE RAINS DOWN IN AAAAFRICAAA

[KatieKat]

Ooh, he's gonne kill you, Crystal. Hehehe.

[David]

I agree with David. Where the bloody hell is your pet Lion that loveded you so much :D
Actually I meant the honeybadger one.

[Avalon]
