It's not a French thing, a lot of museums here and in Poland also stay closed on Mondays. Possibly becsause they open on Sundays or want to offer private tours, I don't know.
Because they're open on Sundays, yes, but which private tours ? I want that ! :D May I spend a whole night in The Louvre, without all the tourists, please ?

I don't know really, I just remember seeing lots of IDF soldiers touring Wavel castle on a Monday. Presumably it's all closed for the Hoi Polloi.

Huh.  Most US museums are open 7 days a week, I think (although Monday used to be a traditional day to be closed for museums and hair salons)
Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

Hey dang! Great to see you here :)
Basically yep you read stuff and write stuff. In this thread we talk about whatever we want, often completely random things, and often the food or the weather.
For the most part you just find threads that you're interested in and post stuff in them that is relevant. Don't worry about writing stupid things. It's kinda like the chat but slower.

Oh, shwmae Dang!
You can post whatever you want in this thread, and there are plenty of more specialist ones. Just take a look around, see what's relevant to your interests. If you think a topic's missing, create a new one and I can guarantee it'll get replies.

Welcome, dear creator of mysterious and awesome bot commands! :)
I've done a quick look-around, and I suspect that there is none yet! Feel feel to make one, I'm sure there are some computer enthusiasts as hardcore as you floating around here. ;)

We've got Aurora lights here! ( can't get a photo though  :( ), but yeah it's nice to see them even in this low latitudes and the starts are shining so brightly too *ahh*.

These things make me love living somewhat outside the city.

I'm imagining myself hopping wildly on a spot wielding an air pressure stapler and... uh... maybe not. I like every single one of my fingers, stapling a customer would be bad for business and those are just the first worst-case scenarios I thought of. :-\
I'm pretty sure these guys'ld have a suggestion or two ...


Uuuugh why is some Plutonian creature trying to crawl up my shower drain every two months or so
Well, a single look at microFerrets new avatar should answer that. They want PlutoKitty back!
