Well. first, I have to admit I changed some of the terms when transcribing our conversation to avoid either getting booted or my post getting littered with ***** Second, I suppose these weird words go with my job - I work at an Attorney's, where it's "hereinbefore", "henceforthwith", "thereto" all the time (when drafting agreements, y'see). And third, I must admit I somehow share Macca's soft spot for these kind of weird expressions (like "peradventure"...).
It's the start of a journey
To a much better place
And this wasn't bad
So a much better place
Would have to be special...
