Re: Nothing In Particular
Surprised that no one has mentioned so far that there is no such thing as the dark side of the moon. At least not for more than 14 days at a time.

Re: Do Car Main dealers rip people off ?
As in anything, there’s good and there’s bad. My gripe isn’t so much with the dealers but with the manufacturers. When I bought my old series 8 Honda Civic it was fitted with roof bars which had been in place for seven years from new. I wanted remove them because they whistled at speed, but the M4 b...

Definitely Chinese, I’d say.

Re: Nothing In Particular
When I left Plessey/Xfab/Zarlink/Mitel in 2004 (can’t remember which name it was using at the time), we had a 0.35um process in house and a 0.18um process which was manufactured for us by TSMC. 0.1um was on the horizon but it was generally thought that that was approaching the limits of what could e...

Re: A little light humour
Thanks for the explanation chaps. Apparently the Kennel Club has a novel variant of this problem. If you wish to register your pooch as Champion Snodgrass Snuffles the 37th, that’s absolutely fine, but you’ll have to think of a new name for his successor. This came up as an issue a while ago. Reason...

Re: A little light humour
On behalf of all those as ignorant as myself, why 2038?
Not that it matters to me. I’ll be 86 and probably past caring!

Re: What Are You Listening To Right This Minute?
Now I think about it, it might have been Skid Row rather tha Budgie. Definitely one or the other tho. So long ago now they all merge into one. I need a Time Machine to go back and check.
Why does autocorrect capitalise Time Machine?

Re: Nothing In Particular
I think it would be naïve to think that things are only true if the Guardian (or whatever source only prints the truth) says so. Wethersfield is local to me, and several people I meet up with (on a regular basis) mix socially with staff from the migrant centre. That (of course) does not mean all &q...

Re: Nothing In Particular
Calm down old chap !! I didn't say it was true, but it might be. :wink: And equally well it might not, but don’t let that stand in the way of a juicy bit of xenophobic bullshit. It's only "xenophobic bullshit" if it's not true, and you don't know that any more than I do. Phil, at the bott...

Did Jurassic install their own fibre, Ray, or do they use the Openreach one?
