I first became a member of this renowned coterie back in the Autumn of 1888. However, I had to renounce that amalgamation a year later, due to a particularly severe bout of Quinsy. In time, all details of my association were consigned to oblivion.
When my strength had returned, I took up a position at my Uncle's freerange orphan farm in the Outer Hebrides and thought no more of my sorjorn at TTLG. T'was on this craggy isle where I met and duly married the love of my life, Mizz Minerva Nithercoot. Tragically, a mere six weeks after our nuptials I succumbed to Flange Rot. I was buried at sea, per my wishes, but washed up on shore a month later. I was consigned to the briny for a second time, not before my foetid remains were fitted with a stout chain and a couple of the more corpulent orphans to weigh me down.
Despite being neither Buddhist, Sikh nor Hindu, I was reincarnated some decades later as a rather dull witted Irishman. This wretched fate, I believe, is what is known as Karma (orphan farming just isn't cricket, apparently).
All was not lost, however. After lurking in the shadowy recesses of the World Wide Web for some considerable time, this oafish Gaelic vessel saw sense to once again pledge (our) allegiance to the hallowed halls of TTLG. It has been a joyful reunion, and an experience that I will cherish 'til the end of my days.
Thank you all!

I have been playing Thief for since the very first game came out. I was 30 something when I started and turning 70 this month. Still playing. I am going to start from the very first mission for the 3rd or is it the 4th time. A lot of great missions and I don't have the desire to purchase any new games. None of them compare to the fun I have with the Thief series. If I end up in a nursing home I hope I can take Thief with me. :thumb:

Purg, that post made me LOL! Thanks for making me smile on an otherwise rather miserable day.
