With £64 million you could marry JA!

Yes, I guess it is £85 Million Squid.....

I see there's a new Tuesday EuroMillions draw starting tonight and the prize is a staggering £85 million. If you won it what would you do with it all? I'd buy a new pair of slippers and Cyprus.

'Er indoors & I do a fair bit of travelling and we always take visa cards, cash in local currency (enough to get us out of trouble), and travellers cheques in dollars. We've started taking some Euros too now as sometimes you get a more favourable exchange rate depending on where you're going country wise. Never trust the safes in hotel rooms. We always leave our valuable and passports in the main hotel safe and get receipts.

iPhoto is buggy, but £9.99 for GarageBand is a bargain: Apple iLife 11, Single User (Mac): Amazon.co.uk: Software

We purchased a QNAP NAS earlier in the year on the recommendation of a fellow edugeeker and we've been very please with it. Nice, reliable bit of kit.

Lol and that's one of the reasons I don't bother with XBox Live anymore - it's full of little runts and deranged Brit-Haters.

I attempted to buy four but by the time I got to the checkout they had sold all their stock

Yup, 91 is India alright.

In my capacity as a Microsoft Product Tester I spend too much time fixing things that should have been fixed before shipping......

Because we work in IT in Education?

There was a mistake with that test. Hammond and the rest of the Top Gear team should have been in that shed.....

All the time. And I run with scissors.

But it's by the hamster - it has to be true?!?! [NOTE - the above is a sarcastic comment]

Scary stuff - didn't realise they could be dangerous: BBC News - Richard Hammond tests dimmer switch danger

I keep returning to GTA4 on the PC atm - for some reason there's a lot of fun to be had mowing down the fat bikers outside the Burger Shot on the road to the airport.....

D'oh I saw that on Sickipedia last night.

It's similar to when they barbecue themselves in electricity substations trying to steal copper isn't it? We had one the other month with severe burns on his arms and legs. The police followed the trail of burning flesh and clothing and found him hiding under a hedge. When challenged, he said he's burnt himself lighting a cigarette. Muppet.

I'd probably buy one out of nostalgia - iconic shape and design - even if the use of one for a couple of years in the late nineties did worsen my carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand.

Yes, our configuration is set to use port 84 instead of 8080 for some reason. If we change it to 8080 Apache Tomcat can't synchronise with the DACCS Management software. DLINK haven't got back to us but does anyone have any idea of the switch / vlan settings that would impact on port 84?

That's it - for some reason apache tomcat is configured to use port 84 - I bet it's blocked.

I'd vote 'yes' followed by 'no'......

Clacton then. It's cheaper than Scunny.

Benidorm?
