Yesterday I logged in to facebook and noticed a few of my friends were online, one of them being by chance, Terry Carter!! (the Colonel himself)
So I decided to try my luck and opened up my chat window with Terry and before I knew it, we were chatting!
Kind permission has been given by Terry for me to share with you all the little chat I was fortunate to have with him before he went to have breakfast.
There was a small break in the chat due to Terry seemingly going offline for a centon, then he came back again..yay! :-*
I can say he is a very lovely gentleman even though i only spoke with him for just a few minutes, but well worth it! Sigh.... :-[ Made my day!
Chat with Terry
Sally
Good evening Terry, hope you are well?
5:15pmTerry
Good morning Sally! I'm very well. How are you?
5:16pmSally
Very well indeed thank you! So nice to make your acquaintance. I am honored to chat a little with you
5:16pmTerry
In what part of the world are you?
5:17pmSally
I live in Australia, north Queensland. Have you ever been down under?
5:17pmTerry
Not yet! How do you manage to keep the dots over the 'o' in your name? That's very Swedish!
5:19pmSally
Terry is no longer online. The following was not sent:
LOL!! Actually the "dots" are germanic. I simply hold the key "option" and the letter "u" and then press the letter "o". Indeed you would know about these things as I heard you once spent some time living int he netherlands?
5:21pmTerry is online.
5:23pmSally
Um did you get that last reply of mine? Sorry, I think you went offline for a momen there.
5:23pmTerry
No, I'm right here, but I didn't receive a reply.
5:24pmSally
lol...well, to answer you querry as to how I keep my dots in my name, i simply hold the key "option" then press the key "u" and then press the key "o" and viola!
5:26pmSally
Actually, I'm half German, from Austrian roots
5:26pmTerry
That was not my question. I have a key board that does it. ööööö. My question related to your being in Australia where people don't ordinarily have 'ös' in their names.
Ah, I see!
5:27pmSally
LOL! I read that you spent some time living in the netherlands Terry. Do you still reside there these days?
5:29pmTerry
No, I'm in Scandinavia these days. I just got called to breakfast. Gotta go! Nice chatting with you, Sally!
5:29pmSally
Thank you so much Terry, enjoy your breakfast! Have a wonderful day!
