You win me? Oh, I didn't know that could happen. I'm used to "points mean prizes", but "people are prizes" is a new one. Does this mean I can win you too?

Active Legislation / Re: MOTION: External Staff Advertisements
« on: April 23, 2020, 10:03:32 AM »
TL;DR version: this motion explicitly grants the admins a permanent power to advertise for and recruit various staff members externally to Exilian.

It's probably not necessary, as admins already have a very wide power to act independently in the interests of the forum, but it's probably also good practice to make things explicit like this.

Background: we've tried repeatedly to find people for these roles, first internally and then externally. The external recruitment attempts have been on the basis of similar bills providing temporary powers; it would now make more sense to formalise this on a permanent basis.

I've just had a pastel de nata (a.k.a. Portuguese custard tart) from my local bakery. It's run been by a Portuguese couple for several years, after the previous owners sold up. They do a good range of traditional Portuguese baked goods, many of them sweet rather than savoury - Portuguese culture has a pronounced "sweet tooth", as do I, so this suits me well. I've visited Portugal a lot in the past, and intend to again, so though I can't do so at the moment, this helps me bring to mind happier times, past and future.

For anyone in the Cambridge (UK) area at any point, it's the Norfolk Street Bakery. A little off the beaten track in terms of location, but worth seeking out.

I'm definitely more a fan of a malty beer ...
Also enjoy a good stout or Irish ale as well. ...
If you ever visit the UK, we should go drinking together: our tastes sound quite similar, and there's a lot of beer here you'd like.

Ah, I seem to have missed that one at the time. You have made me learn something new - thank you.
