That´s good news hon!! :up:

have you ever got a text message which makes no sense, from a number you don't recognise.. but it rings a bell????

i have!!

I havent

the invbisible birdman rocks!!!!!

more infractions should disappear tomorrow :D

well done to claire :-) am sure it's a huge relief...essay/assignment-writing days are a not-distant enough nightmare ;-) all be worth it in t'end though :-)

Ta very much! Gotta start worrying about the next one now, which is a 60 minute memory feat under exam conditions... Basically do the studying, write an essay, try to remember what you've written and regurgitate it during a tutorial in 5 weeks or so... :roll:

have you ever used a dictophone????

Good luck, Claire!!!

I am going through the strangest experience of my life...as I've mentioned before, I've found my best friend since childhood who I've lost touch with many years ago...and so we're writing each other...and everything I've thought or felt is being turned upside down...most of my childhood/teen perceptions were all wrong...and...I wish I knew then what I know now...

I was just looking at the comment I've received on my status on the facebook...obviously, otherwise I never look at my profile...but it says there that there are 2 days to go till Christmas...ummm...Christmas WHERE???

My cousin (who is now 44) in his school days, decided the only way to get through an exam was to cheat. So he bought a new pack of Bic Biros and taking advantage of them having 6 sides, sat down with a pair of compasses to 'engrave' onto the side of them, any information he thought he may forget (apparently if you buy different coloured bic biros you can even have a reference system....just don't agree to loan the teacher your pen!).

Turned up on exam day ... discovered he had forgotten the pens!

However, he'd spent so long painstakingly engraving the information, he'd remembered it. And passed.

I knew I was supposed to have a memory test....forgot all about it though

Which is why i am always interested in the small newspaper ads for the events that advertise "I can improve your memory, come to my seminar on Thursday 8pm etc"

Now if you have memory problems, you are hardly going to remember this are you?

3 hours of boring computer stuff :yawn: !!

Zina. Not sure what you are talking about, but, are you ok?

aah was that this morning's induction thingy? other than boring, how was it?

It was OK, stuck in a tiny room, freezing cold and trying to concentrait solidly to what was written on the screen in front of me and did a few quiz things though I will and have not remembered it as I have never been someone to take written things in, I'm much better hands on and learning as I do it !!

Saturday I get a till number so looks like I'll get to be on shop floor and a bit warmer :cool: !!

I am ok...and I am just saying that as you grow older...you realize what things were really like back then...and what was important in your teens and twenties is laughable later on...

yet at the time some things seemed so difficult to deal with...hindsight would be a wonderful thing!

I can't imagine you NEED to know most of that. I remember a half day's induction for a high street clothing store...and I think barely any of it was relevant to the actual job. Just seemed to be standard corporate stuff they had to show us.

Hope it goes well on Saturday - shop floor should be more interesting...plus you get the variety of entertainment that is customers! :twisted:

Congratulations!!!!

derren brown is on tonight... excellent

and it should be noted that.. once again, i had absolutely nothing to do with the old thread bump :-)

yup

AND...they are so much funnier than yours...lol

Thanks hun,
I know and isn't it just common knowledge not to serve alcohol to a policeman on duty :lmao: :nuts: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes looking forward to the change :lol:.

Thank you :cool:.

bit of same old same old at the minute, work - come home - work out - play guitar - eat, go to bed...all the more reason for needing a job change

And I shall be watching it...

looks to me like some post deleting went on ... :sherlock:

note to self: ALWAYS quote jonty when replying to him

New CSI series starts in 10 mins and i haven't eaten yet!!

uh oh...step on it...although the trip from your kitchen to your TV might make you miss half of the show...lol...

Just looked at the site the meetlaaf guy posted (in the thread he started)...didn't someone once post a link to youtube vids of his on here once? they look familiar - at least the venue, the bloke and his way of 'performing'.

I think you're right, just can't remember the thread

For those who doesn't have facebook account or didn't check in in a while...Pearl is posting that don't forget the lyrics is this Friday and she is also on E: True Hollywood Stories this Fridays as well...she thinks it's 8 pm

I didn't make it cos the microwave died halfway through and i had to put it in the oven but i was recording it anyway!!

Ouch...well, since you're recording it...it's all good!!!

i HAVE to go see him live.. he's unbelievably good

agreed. he's a hero of mine as well.

he's a total legend!!!

Well, American Idol has begun and we have a bit of the same ole same ole...but we do have an interesting contestant this time. Blind young man who graduated college at 19 and studied in England...who scates and does ballroom dancing...who learned to play classical piano and all that while being blind...he is pretty good and very poised and gracious...can't tell he is blind if you don't know it...so...somebody to root for...

thanks :oops:

He's touring again this year!

All dates are subject to change and additional dates may be added.

Dates will vary as to when each venue will commence selling tickets.

All enquiries for tickets should be made to the individual theatres or booking agencies.

The performance is not suitable for children under 12 years.

It doesn't say, but I'm assuming the first dates are in April... and sorry Jonty, looks like you'll be needing to travel again....

Yes, he is... and fantastic live too, I know some stuff about NLP and hypnosis, but I STILL don't know how he does some of the stuff he does...

Absolutely!!!

Have to check him out now...

Do, Zina, he's fab!!

According to someone posting on Youtube about last night's show:

I've never heard of him though...I will check it out - thanks for your help!

Sometime after work...they removed our speakers...lol

Morning !!!

Damn that was a good sleep !

Found loads of new pics last night, just when you think there can't possibly be any more, new ones show up :cool: !!!

:twisted: Meet Laff? :p :mrgreen: :lmao:


Derren Brown was fecking amazing on the telly last night 8)

:twisted: It's now January.


Jo is home from hospital and settled at home.


As scheduled, the madness of planning the wedding for August must begin.


Just made a few preminally phone calls and enquiries.


I feel stressed already :panic:


I feel faint :faint:


How do I make it through eight months of this madness without adding a shrinks bill to the wedding expences? :nuts:


I know.
With Sparks, that's how :idea: .


With Sparks, all is possible :mrgreen:

YouTube Video

Let the boogie commence.

Very glad to hear it :-)


Be calm! You will manage it and all will be worth it! Make lists of what you need to do and tick them off when completed (and make use of trusted ushers and bridesmaids ;) :-))

and make sure you turn up on the wedding day...very important

thats one feckin depressin song he's singing... aint heard him sing that before

OK, my puter is piece of crap...I didn't see this...but I've seen on youtube somebody getting a BMX bike for his birthday...Dan got it...I didn't...lol...

OK, so now I watched Russian Scam...funny...still don't get it but very funny...

What happened to Simon Cowell...he is scarely nice...must be a new medication...

Thanks for the heads up Claire ... managed to secure our two tickets this afternoon ... now you've just got to predict for where :))

My point being that if he was that bloody good would he not need to advertise???????????????????????

lol ... surely that should be "if his audience were as good as he was would he not need to advertise?"

looks like it just chip and ze duke doing the english tour... interesting

So...I get a call yesterday and Duke concert is moved from 9:30 to 7:30...what is with me and moving concerts so that I have to take time off??? geez

:( I can't find enough seats near me with a decent view of the stage.... Hope he adds more dates, since these ones seem to be pretty much sold out...

well that was an interesting experience on the eyes...laser eye surgery would be interesting!

Yeah took me a while to find some decent seats, and they're a road trip away.

Cuba?

Since when was that accessible from the UK by road?:roll:

why do you have to bring logic into this?:D

It's a habit of mine ...

Where are you going then Andy?

That's for you to work out from the words I say and the body language I adopt. :))

Body language is absolute essential in online communications!

are you making a shape of the first letter of the city/town with your body?!

From the use of the words 'road trip', I'm guessing either Oxford or Plymouth...

Your Derren Brown guy's on E4 at 9.30pm, "An evening of wonders"

No I'm not making a letter ... i'm spreading the craze of hole tempting ...

interesting phrase

hole tempting...and you a mod...:oops:

It' nowhere near any thought you gutter brains are thinking :p

uh uh

at least the dukes youtube vids are safe

I love every track on Songs from the Deep Forest....and that happens so rarely. Normally it's only Meat records i can listen to with enjoyment without any track skipping ( apart from Martha and If You Really Want To..and most of MATLAF)

:D

you wont wanna see the dukes live cover of martha then????

Yippee i mended the microwave!! The plug had fallen out lol!!

Does anyone know which is better plasma or LCD TVs One of my friend's is buying one for her husband for his birthday and i wasn't sure what to advise her!! Thank you!!

personally i'd say say plasma.. for colour depth and picture motion steadiness... (panasonic or pioneer)
but theres many many factors that will determine which best suits the individuals needs

Plasma.

and if you don't beleive me look here . . .

http://www.lcdtvbuyingguide.com/lcdtv-plasmavslcd.shtml

they agree with me... nice one... you'd almost think i was in the trade or something

:shock:

Is there such an animal???

or something...lol...

as found by rj... you need to think more tom waits than meat loaf perhaps
