With tea

so nice of you to serve muffins with my (or rather her) tea ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:34, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Ha, Gerda, you never fail to make me smile: that was a good catch. Thanks, but actually it's not so much my being nice as hoping that she is going to save me from premature madness ... :) Cheers DBaK (talk) 09:38, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Now you made me smile, thank you! I hope she will save ... - While it was rather easy to tell you that you are an awesome Wikipedian (12 May), telling her was not so, and I could not do it during the election - certainly not sure if it would help or the opposite ;)
ps: I miss PumpkinSky, again, on top of the one she offered tea - how do you like my red cat? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:50, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks! I always find it a bit sad when we lose editors; I don't feel as if I will ever understand the dynamics of this place. Sorry, I am missing the point totally about he red cat - please enlighten me! (I am aware that if I was a proper person I could figure it out but asking you may be quicker!) cheers DBaK (talk) 10:13, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
I enjoy puns, cat as category, on my user ;) - close to the red cat, under "workshop", you find the dynamics, #1 "pride and prejudice", #2 "RfA" (termed an attack page in the middle of it), - my disillusioned answer: the red cat ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:21, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Ah, I see, thank you very much! Best wishes DBaK (talk) 10:34, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Don't only look at the dynamics, there's "hope" and "history" also ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:02, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
