  1. Adele called her first albums 19 & 21 because they are numbers that have special importance to her life Her follow up http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/PI.svg/440px-PI.svg.png is due out in the summer........
  2. Would it have prevented this: http://www.dailyhaggis.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/notmykids.jpg
  3. She was great in Dr. Who in the 70's BBC News - Doctor Who actress Elisabeth Sladen dies aged 63
  4. Started the stock-take today. Somebody kill me please.
  5. Libre Office gets the big thumbs-up here. No ruddy first run register your granny rubbish and you can edit PDF files with it as well!
  6. I love my HTC Desire although the LG weren't too impressed as Lady Gaga's Born This Way started blaring out mid-meeting as I'd forgotten to mute the phone and it was set as the ringtone.... ;-)
  7. I have a garage full of stuff. 'Er indoors keeps nagging me about it but I've learned to filter that out now
  8. Resurrecting this thread - I'm expected to provide notice of eight weeks. In the present job climate it's certainly a hindrance. Has anyone here ever jumped ship early and not fulfilled their full notice period and what were the ramifications?
  9. I wonder what the insurance premium is going to be next time with him on it.....?
  10. I like Kaspersky. It keeps telling me Windows 7 on my PC at home is a virus ;-)
  11. Amazing image but there's this woman with a big head peering over the chairs..... And the man with no head or legs: And these people have lost something as well:
  12. BBC Story: BBC News - How to take a 15.5 gigapixel panoramic photo Photo: Spherical Images St Pauls GigaPan - 15 Giga Pixel Panorama
  13. As a joke once we printed some pages with black stripes on them and put them back in the printers. A left-over from April 1st for you perhaps? If not perhaps there's an inherent fault with the fuser units?
  14. Well, I think they are - trying to pass stupid racist legislation like this: BBC News - Woman in face veil detained as France enforces ban
  15. I am old - does that count?
  16. Bear in mind she may, at 80, be suffering from alzheimers or the start of it, and she was having one of her less rational days. I've got a great aunt in her eighties. One day you phone her up and she's her usual self. The next time she doesn't know who you are and tells you to **** off which is rather unsettling at times coming as it does from an octogenarian...! Failing that she's probably just a sour old biddy and it's none of her business. I'd paint it bright pink and stick it on your front lawn.
  17. See, that's what happens when we men get nagged into doing jobs we'd rather not.....
  18. We have a large number of these on-site and they are out of warranty now :-( The stylus seem to develop a problem where they die after about a couple of years. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Had a look at the gubbins inside and can't see anything that looks like it's fried itself. It's definitely the stylus - the tablets continue to work okay with another stylus.
  19. Anyone else thinking we're making a huge mistake and should be re-fitting it instead of scrapping it?
  20. I'm already getting it.
  21. Could be it's 1GB max - with a 512MB in each slot if there's two slots. There's your answer I'm afraid.
  22. I would have one of these at home. I'd be very happy.
  23. What? A pizza with mouse topping?
  24. BBC Story: BBC News - Child sunbed use: Firms face huge fines So where will Charlene and Chelsea go now for their weekly dose of skin cancer? I see a range of home-use products aimed at the younger market now. The Toast-O-Matic for that chavley-over-cooked-turkey-look....
