Holidays :confused: :rolleyes:

You are correct, though you wouldn't go for the highest value if it would compromise your next shot, as you want a long run. The main difference is the size of the table. It is considerably larger than pool table. The base is made of slate, which is extremely smooth and flat. They weight a lot...

Sod off s a short hand version of bugger off. It is not as offensive as f*ck off nowadays but still can be derogatory or light-hearted depending on the tone. Feck off can also be fairly light-hearted.

I think they are both good books. What I thought was interesting in Never Let Me Go was how the clones are not like us and how it is designed to make the reader feel uncomfortable because of the distinct lack of resistance and their morose attitude to the inevitability of their fate. Also how...

Not me. I think it is probably a browser exploit

Mine is people who complain about booting their computer, when they can do better things with their time like starting a conversation (not online):p

This is false on modern devises. I studied a bit of embedded systems. People who leave devises on 24/7 waste a great deal more energy that a start up sequence. Memory devises are getting more an more stable. I'm not trying to be a do-gooder or anything, but you can be surprised how much you can...

Standby enables a devise to 'power up' remotely, but it still wastes power. Things like the standby light and charger complete lights, actually account for 10% of electrical use. There is no reason why you shouldn't turn off computers and TVs if you are not using them. If you re not totally...

I went to a very bag gig last Saturday. There was a terrible tinny indie pop band called the fast emperors. Needless to say the C string broke. Though to be honest it didn't make much difference they were so bad, possibly they were a bit better.

duh:rolleyes:

Ashfaque don't make assumptions about the market that is a golden rule. You are in an established market there will be lots of market reports floating around. Many of them you can view for free in business libraries. Do your homework and then do your own targeted customer survey. Don't move onto...

Have you read Never Let Me Go? I thought it was excellent. Chillingly futile and sad though. For that reason I'd be reluctant to read it again soon. I've started A Short History Of Tractors In Ukrainian by Marina Lewycka. Reserve judgement for now.

Been going to gym a lot lately. It is good not just for loosing calories (I'm thin), but for feeling fit and also endorphins which reduce stress and anxiety. Unfortunately I loose loads of calories in a session to meet my cardiovascular target, I'm pretty hungry for several days. But is much...

I think he is talking about natural gas rather than gas petrol.

When I went to Chevron Cabinda Gulf off the coast of Angola they took us off shore to various platforms but also a natural gas ship which was connected to a pipeline. It must have been a mile long. They had pipes frozen with liquefied gas.

To some degree I think it is exaggerated even with these people.

Before I get old there is fun to be had. But there’s a taster of what’s to come. Is there another way?

Seriously I have no idea. What does "sorry I was feeling snappy" mean? Is that what Stalin said?

OK so it's not just me then
