When Sarah met Andrew
One fine evening on the 8th April 2005, a user named Fondue_Pot logged into #cybercafe on DALnet IRC for the very first time. A user named Greystripe, who's birthday it was, started talking to her. After 1 minute and 33 seconds they were already hitting it off:
*** 16:18:53 Greystripe jumps into Fondue_Pot
Becuase she didn't know the rules of #cybercafe, Fondue_Pot duly got kicked
and banned because she posted her website. Greystripe came to the rescue; 17:37:12 Greystripe: hey, can someone unban Fondue_Pot?
And thus, a deep friendship was born:
*** 17:57:43 Lord_Greystripe rides up to Fondue_Pot, lifts her onto his horse, and they both ride into the sunset
They spent about three and a half hours talking and probably have done each night
ever since.
The Trip
A few weeks (and many, many long phone calls) after the initial IRC meeting, the two IRC buddies decided that they wanted to see each other in person. Andrew promptly booked plane tickets to visit Sarah in London the next month.
However, after another week of getting to know each other better they found that this was not an optimal arrangement. They needed to satisfy their curiosity about each other immediately. Bus tickets were spontaneously booked by Andrew for him to visit Sarah the very next day, much to the surprise of everyone including Andrew.
The morning approached, Andrew boarded the bus. After twelve hours of worried sleeplessness, the bus pulled into Victoria Coach Station and Andrew alighted. With shivers and chattering teeth from the cold, the two IRC friends found each other and held one another in a joyful embrace. As you can probably imagine, one thing led to another, and just 20 minutes later they ended up kissing each other passionately in front of a Linux install screen.
