Not much happening today...Is every one watching the olympics or at Borrowdale?
Working on the Olympics :thumbup:
It's all very very highly technical ...
Tech Op 1 "This sheet says beach volleyball, but it isn't. It's gymnastics and they are VERY different.... I mean, one is on a beach and one isn't for a start..."
Tech Op 2 "Wellll, they aren't that different - you can do gymnastics on the beach, surely???"
Tech Op 1 "No way! Have you ever tried to do a cart wheel on a beach - no chance.."
Less technical discussion resumes about line feeds, file transfers and connectivity resumes...
Fell race
Pub
Curry
:thumbup:
How did you and Stef get on? Weather was decent and little biara had a stormer so very happy with that race for her.....Quote:

Wonder how long until I am forgiven? :closed:
Just watching the cat chase a big fat fly round the room. I should be working but this is far more entertaining. My money is on the fly to escape as the cat has a short attention span (just like me :rolleyes: ) :DQuote:

Our cats attention span is -1 second, unless it involves a piece of cheese or a little bit of tuna.
Interview tomorrow Attachment 6330

Ewwww I don't want to imagine them naked :D
I just need to talk techno babble and I am sure it will be fine. Roll on tomorrow night when I am at a wedding reception. It will all be forgotten after a few champagnes ;)
Good luck OneHill:thumbup:Quote:

A bit thundery at the moment.
Still about 35 degrees out here ;)
Rain!! Not sure I'm going for my little walk...
I did go after all! It keeps the metabolism high I believe.
Next stop is hangover in the morning..............
FROST! FROST ON MY CAR THIS MORNING :eek: And I'm talking proper frost too - scraper required - not brush away with the windscreen wipers type frost!
It's August still (isn't it??? Or have I lost a month??)
It was a bit nippy this morning but no frost here :DQuote:

Not your cat then Alf?
Nope:D I inverted him and his pads were clean plus he is far too fastidious to dip his paws into concrete. I have just been out and the plastic was off and I have 4 paw prints and one is right in the middle of the cement and quite deep, in fact it must have gone in up to its knee on that one! Next doors cat is a bit of a tubster so I suspect he is the culprit! I have covered it with a board with some rocks on now so it shouldn't be able to shift that :DQuote:

Shhhhhh ... It's tooo noisy. I am just going to have a little sleeep at my desk :thunbdown:
Remind me to not to get the train to work at the weekend again. It's full of idiots and noisy ones at that!
I much prefer sleepy commuters.
Is been QAH as the washing machine broke down on Saturday and just got it fixed today :thumbup:
When the engineer arrived he asked me what the problem was so I told him the error code and helpfully added I had looked it up on the official website and it said "Program Selector Error". He then said that was the wrong meaning for that code and they never divulged the real meanings for the codes as they would have people fixing their own problems and doing them out of a job ! He said it was a "door lock selection error" and fixed it pretty rapidly. I know he was telling the truth as he left the parts behind and you could see where they were burnt out. We got the machine with a one year manufacturers guarantee and the vendor John Lewis threw in an extra year's guarantee so it didn't cost us owt. I will be taking out a further policy though as he said it would have cost me over a £100 for a callout plus the price of the parts :thunbdown:.
My boiler stopped working last weekend, just as temperatures dropped to around freezing :w00t:
The plumber had a look at it, it is the thermostat... Not the boiler, phew! Bought a new thermostat on 't internet whihc has just arrived and handed it to the plumber who is going to fit it at some point today, once he has finished his job here at work. Hopefully he won't charge me for 3 call outs, as he has been to look at it twice already :)

We gaffer taped it back together with bits of scrap that we found lying around the office.
I think we need a "Today's Domestic Appliance Problem" thread :rolleyes::D
Spotted those Advent Calendars with choccies in at Morrisons today. Christmas is coming :w00t:

I had a lovely pm from the legend that is Al Fowlup when I logged on. Bloody great it was! :thumbup:
Just wondering which race I should do first? Nothing too hard..
Not done a fell race for over 2 years. Not done any other sort of race for over a year.
IDP inspired me to start looking yesterday.
