Paris' editors are awesome and made my hesitant rambling sound snappy and lively too. This came out extremely well.

also I passively knew @dgerard was australian but somehow didn't expect quite that accent. keeps momentarily sounding like I'm hearing someone on comms in $game, but nope, not that

my accent veers uncertainly between middle class London bloke and much more extreme strayan than i spoke like when i lived there

I did enjoy the handful of strayanisms you dropped along the way
