    About 5 mins ago I noticed a play to TV option on youtube (youtube.com/pair), after browsing through these:

    My neighbours on all three sides have at some point informed me that the broken fence belongs to me, but out of the goodness of their heart will go 50/50. Then proceed to ‘supervise’ me fixing it up.

    My deeds or covenant said somewhere about everyone owning the fence to the right.

    Primates are programmed to sacrifice themselves for the good of the tribe for evolutionary advantages. Religion capitalises on base pack instincts, belonging, prostration to a mock alpha male etc. Any warmonger that doesn’t include religion in their arsenal is missing a trick. But I doubt those that start wars are really doing it for religious reasons.

    Pretty sure you can get a new transformer and start line track piece (sports?), and then a couple of converter join pieces to go on either end of that.

    Is a little flat the second half but your glad of it after Settle. Although the last leg is a bit underwhelming the roads are quiet.

    Don’t believe you can get MS Office but Google docs lets you edit Word docs and there is a spreadsheet that looks extremely similar. I’ve an ASUS C300M I’m happy with. Toshiba chromebook 2s get good reviews.

    Have a try in PC World, then buy one from Maplins.

    Some good advice already given, databases can be fun as mentioned Oracle and MS SQL is always useful, databases underpin most applications and are must for warehousing, BI or data analyst work. If Application development sounds interesting; .net, VBA, C++, Java.

    Where I work we have problems recruiting for some of the newer Microsoft stuff: Biztalk, Dynamics CRM, Dynamics AX. ITIL gives some professional reassurance. Agile project experience is popular too.

    One word, Beckams.

    Sometimes I’m convinced that we’re living in the matrix and most of these celebs are dumb rich kids from the future playing out some fantasy sim. Or lizards.

    Although they use the same lines I thought they could control the contention ratio (customers per line), used to be the case with normal broadband. With that I went from practically no internet evenings and weekends on SKY to a constant 18Mb with Zen.

    Recently moved to a fibre area so signed up with Zen again only to be hit with whopping cancellation fee from BT.

    Recently went for the home buyers, ^^^ seems accurate. Dread to think what the Valuation contains, ‘There are 4 walls and a roof”.

    Recently went for a 5 year fixed too. Too long fixed can tie you into your lender if you want to move again. Fixed seems like the safest option at the bottom of the curve, and it can’t get much lower?

    All the advisers we saw recommended 2 year deals so we’d keep going back and give them another commission every 2 years.

    JL in the first reply :roll:

    Get one of those Blaupunkt from Tesco for half the price, they probably come out the same factory.

    I got a 50″ for £300 and it’s excellent. Just add a dongle to make it instantly smarter than most built in versions.

    A standard TV, separate box and sound bar is a better set up and cheaper. No brainer.

    Those daft toilet doors on trains that, unless you know which magic combination actually closes and locks the door, actually open to reveal the user on the pot.

    I saw this happen, they open and shut so slowly too. Poor guy had to sit waiting for it to open, waddle over click close, waddle back, sit and wait. All in front of a crowd of commuters trying to look away. :lol:

    Was all wrapped up very neatly. Not disappointing, the episode before it was probably the best, difficult to follow that perhaps.

    It’s just some guy narrating the key scenes:

    “on the roof when he is asked to jump to an impossible distance to another building, it’s about trying to build up confidence and belief in himself”

    Fascinating conspiracy theory… and actually that scene is more about a literal leap of faith in the matrix.

    Just moved here, nice atmosphere, always something going on. Rush hour traffic chocca but cycle routes are fantastic. Sutton bank or Dalby not that far. Never ending tourists make it recession proof.

    The 5 mile commute I take is 75% segregated from suburbs to city centre. Its only the non segregated there is ever a problem with others, parking on cycle lanes, passing too close against on-coming traffic. The segregated is mostly pedestrian shared but never that busy with walkers.

    Some of the surfaces could do with re surfacing but they’re not that bad. Traffic lights are a pain, it should be acceptable for cyclists to turn left along a cycle lane if there are no pedestrians. I would like to ride empty footpaths, perhaps only at certain times of the day or below certain speed limit? Mopeds seem to think green boxes are for them too, although doesn’t really affect anyone.
