Oh no! There is an interloper who has got between us! What will we do about it?

Hey there Emili! I woke up this morning and you had passed me again! So I have done some practice and managed to improve my times by a fraction on each of the games - but I can't catch you on Friends - it's just too hard. We have a beautiful morning here in Wellington, and I am going away for a night to see a friend. When I get back, I expect you will have caught me up and passed me again. By the way, I looked up Sagunt on google and saw it has amazing Roman ruins - how fantastic!

Hi there! You really pushed me. When I saw you could do capitals of Europe in less than a minute, I had to do it too, and now I've made it past the 3 minute mark - I'm happy! And now I am going for a walk to the swimming pool, have a swim and then go out shopping for curtains with my daughter, for her new house.

Hey, you caught me up and passed me! Fantastic! I want to break the 3 minute mark, but, like you, my computer is very slow - I think it's on holiday like me. I don't know how those leaders do it - do they use a mouse or do they just touch the screen or something? They are so quick. Now I'm going to practise and see if I can pass you again.

Hi Emili, when I started last night I was really bad - I have no idea about famous chess players, and I find the place names in Mexico really hard to remember, apart from the places my daughter has visited. So, I woke up this morning and suddenly there are heaps of names on the leaderboard, and you are ahead of me - so watch out!! Just kidding!

Barcelona as well! You are so lucky. I see there are fabulous Roman ruins in Sagunt - how amazing.
Now, since I can only improve my times in just two games today, it is time to go out and make the most of the day. I am on holiday at the moment, so I would not normally spend so much time playing games on the computer - but it is fun!

Oh, I just saw your message to me - New Zealand is really quite temperate. Not like the Spanish summer I imagine. It is considered a hot day here if we reach 25 degrees celsius. Today is lovely - I will get out into the sunshine soon.

Hello Emili! Here we are again - addictive really. I looked up your town on google - looks a lovely part of the world. Do you really experience winter there?

Thanks, Emili! Looks like we are having a battle between us! You are very good too. But I am going to stop now because it is a beautiful morning here - high summer and too good to spend so much time on the computer. Where is Sagunt? Is it in Germany?
