Tim is concerned that Aaron has been conspicuous by his absence the last few days. Hopes everything is alright with him. Hopes he's not been hypnotised by the superficial attractions of the real world.

Ask Laaaaura. She has been about a bit. Maybe he is just busy and we should use this chance for grammarchy.

! Nooo! I hope you went to work after this and didn't just stop replying cos you collapsed or something!
Robyn woke up in the middle of the night because she had a brainwave about her essay. In the light of the morning it seems a bit of a braindead-wave instead.
I survived. Just. Raspberry jam on toast can be a killer though. Beware.
I don't really like jam, so I'm safe...for now...

I was by myself when I almost choked. There's a lot of pressure you feel in your forehead, also I noticed that I was turning red. I figured the best way to simulate the Heimlich Maneuver was to to throw myself over the back of a kitchen chair. Obviously, it worked 
Glad you are still with us & <3 your avatar!
Robyn is going to get a migraine. >_<

I didn't have to go that far. 
Just lots of coughing and water.
Thanks.

Not like jam!? You crazy kids!

I can't ask her! Zooo scares me. She'd probably call me a racist or something, or go "Grrrr!"

I think you should try and get an item on a consumer programme warning about the dangers. Then again, to quote Partridge, "You could try Watchdog but I think they've got bigger fish to fry".
I choked on chocolate once. It just melted and got stuck as a big globule in the back of my throat. I was with my friend Claire and she just laughed at me as I tried to draw breath. She also once brought me a bag of chocolate covered brazil nuts - depite my potentially fatal allergy. I think she's trying to tell me something.
If only nut allergies had been around during Agatha Christie's time, she'd have had a field day.

I think they were known as a 'surfeit' then. There's a portrait in the National Portrait Gallery of a Georgian woman who died of a 'surfeit of cherries'.
Either she choked or she was allergic.

If it preserves life it has to be good. >_<
Marmalade good. Jam bad.
