Bath now,then BBC4 at 10pm for classic drama.

That's a long time in the bath, Iva, your hands will go wrinkled.


'Un stuff.

Thanks. The last laptop was starting to play up so I replaced it. Bags of time to retrieve stuff I hadn't backed up before it failed completely... except when it played up more than usual and I applied percussive encouragement. Percussive encouragement immediately above the hard drive, it turned out. It then wouldn't boot up. At the weekend, on a whim, I swapped the identical hard drive from the even older laptop and it had a go at starting, prevented only by an incorrect version of Windows.

As I think I have narrowed the fault down to a squidged hard drive, can I do anything myself to relieve the squidge by maybe buying a replacement hard drive and cannibalising it? Or something similar.

It's not the end of the world if it fails totally.

First JD in hand.

ION the medication I collected this evening comes with a very strict warning. NO GRAPEFRUIT JUICE!

Oh that's a shame.

That's not trivial ,but to you it is.

While at the supermarket today I purchased a four pack of Carling Lemon Cooler. I've just dug one out of the fridge and it's surprisingly nice in a summery flowered slightly see-through skirt kinda way. Reminds me of a Shandy Bass.

Shandy Bass not hand shandy.

Shut up and get me a beer
System restore by the way the fridge is fooked and the key for the drap door is lost.

Anyway, who's for a beer on Wednesday next week?

Some clarity please squire. Real or virtual?

My plan is for simultaneous real/virtual/countrywide drinks up. If you fancy a good old fashioned virtual drink up you can call, email or Skype those having real drink ups. A real one, for example, could well be in the Rubbing Room in Epsom with phones, tablets and laptops at the ready.

I'd wager Chunjy would make a unilateral declaration of virtualness and have an email and phone drink up in the outer Hebrides or wherever he is next Wednesday.

[DickyC]

Any of this making sense?

Stag Thursday is dead!

Long live stag Wednesdays!

[Battyfine]

All sounds a bit err, odd to me. But who am I to judge?

ETA If real, I'm game.

Chunky! I was about to give up.

Stag Thursdays are scheduled to be restored immediately afterwards.

It's a one off.

I'm going through a lurking phase.

Actually it's a 'fk; these fking water meters are everywhere!' Phase.

You can always catch me on the chunkline if I'm needed.
