/\ personally speaking, it would be a shame if you stop.

How will we recognise you? Rule 1

/\ Cheers Swanny, just skimmed through and they sound perfect, I will read them in more detail later. Definitley a beer owed to you for that.

Great pub, famous the world over. I was thinking just the other day as I drove down Burgess Road, how so many of our decent pubs had gone. Just on Burgess Road there was the Black Cat, The Gate, Crown & Sceptre and The Bassett, only The Stile remains and I'm not sure that that is technically in Burgess Road. I really do hope that is does re-open, and it always seemed busy. Maybe someone has seen the potential of developing the site into a few more 'luxury apartments', we need more of those don't we! You can't beat a decent pub thread on a Sunday afternoon to whet your appetite for a pint of 49'er, shame I am still hungover from last night in the Brigh****er. Maybe it's people like me ****ing it up in Wetherspoons that has actually brought about the demise of the great British boozer. Discuss.

Are they back together yet? Her legs I mean.

She would send me to quarantine. Yeah, sorry darling*, your cooking is ****. Simples. *I never actually use that term of endearment? After all the years we've been together, she knows it hurts, that is what attracted her to me. That and how gentle I can be when required. You've really put a lot of thought into this haven't you Colin. I think that we would get on well. Well btf, I am sorry to tel you this, but not only do I consider Cricket not to be a sport for women, I do not even consider it a sport for men, I don't really consider it a sport tbh. Unless of course the Mighty Spitfires of KENT are in the final of the Twenty20 cup (which they soon will be. I am probably like a majority of people and will watch the last few overs of the final test, and jump on the bandwagon when/if we win. ...and then dissapoint her with a computer!!!!! Nurses with sore heads!! After last night my head is too sore to leave the house right now. anyway cheers queers, have a nice sunday xx's

She will suggest we take the train, and give me one of her 'looks' for breaking the car e ven more, I already broke the roof this week. Tried that, it made me all sleepy. My neighbours don't like me. This could work, I like it. I have an automatic, I am screwed. I think she knows Saints well enough to know that we ain't gonna sign any new players tbh.

tbh, she will be more detremined to take me up the prom-prom-prom, if she finds out it's gay pride week. I need an good reason not to come out at all. Isn't there someone who goes to the SWF kickabout who is known for damaging other players ligaments or soemthing?

I am expecting a surprise (laptop for Mrs hamster) delivery on Monday, but she wants us to have a day in Brighton. Thinks it will be great to spend even more of my (our) money on her. I need a good excuse for us both to stay in, ideally avoiding a domestic incident that may result in her stomping off and going without me. Suggestions on a postcard please. Anyone fancy stealing my car for the day?

Just a smuch i wouldn't want one living down my street, I also wouldn't want one to live down your's or anyone else's street ESB. This is why it can be risky to hound them out of town ala vigilante method. They can disappear. It's a toughie (not) but I really do think that they should be kept locked away and can understand why some would want them dead, although I can't bring myself to agree with the death penalty.

/\ That could catch on....in Portsmouth. fwiw, my ex-missus used to have a mattress tied to her back when she went out at night. Nice girl, very popular by all accounts.

/\ Saab, 900s 1997 ® Don't ask the colour though. Are you gonna stork me?

stevo, I have used a couple of those in the past, but never realised it was so easy to start them. Brilliant, really brilliant mate. I try to teach people how to do things for themselves to make there's and my life a lot easier. Sort of defeats the object to teach someone soemthing that requires me to be sat with them if it can be avoided. I think social work students call it 'promoting independence', I call it 'common sense'. If people don't mind I may well bump this thread every now and then for more specific help and advice. ta very much btw I am familiar with quite a few of thise already listed, I wouldn't want anyone thinking that I am totally useless at my job.

Get yourself a hamster. hth xx's

It is horrible isn't it. I remember a programme on TV years ago, about how paedophiles 'know' which kids to prey on, which poor little souls won't 'tell', they even recognise other paedophiles in the street apparently. Such a horrible, horrible crime.

You don't need arms to be a ******. hth

I am touched. Friday - M&S (new jeans), Mum n Dad's, home for wine and bed. Today - Nothin much and then....Pub with hospital catering staff to celebrate the NHS selling them down the river to a bunch of budgies (Medirest/Compass) who in turn are introducing airline type microwave 'ding' meals to save millions of OUR pounds, making half of them redundant in the process but ensuring that there are lots and lots of expensive mangers to keep the remaining ones in line and attend loads of really important strategy and planning meetings to justify their existence. Much beer will be consumed and I expect tears will flow. Taxi home. Sunday - Bus to Shirley for big breakfast and collect car. Re-felt shed roof. Fleming Park for football tuition.

Anyone know a reputable local (SO) garage to fix a mechanical problem with a convertible mechanism please? I had to drive home with it half way up the other day, much to the amusement of pedestrians, other drivers and a bunch of ****-heads outside a pub whilst I had top stop at the red light in front of them. It is definitey a mechanical fault, which i have narrowed daown to either one of the motors or the little gearbox thing which drives the cogs. I am pretty sure that the motor spins, so suspect that either some of the teeth have shorn or a securing pin is broke inside it. It is pretty inaccesible for a DIYer like me I fear. Hope that makes sense? Note, I would like to fix before the lovely summer weather that we are enjoying ends (Glabal warming my arse).

If we were in Livingstone's position I would consider ourselves to have failed already. AFC Southampton would have started at a higher equivelant level than them. Although I agree that it is a shame when any footie club faces extinction. Having just a had quick look at their history, are they not a Scotch MK Dons type outfit? erm..thinks....

One or two at a time will do, budgie. Really stevo, I may go through that list one day, but for now JUST YOUR FAVOURITES the ones that people find most useful.

Woah, I like that one. I'm gonna put a folder together, I really am. These are going to be brilliant for some of my clients who struggle to use a mouse.

peh?

Anyone know how to minimise/maximise a window using keyboard shortcuts?

First one really made me laugh, but thanks I will definitley use that one again. I just realised I can't call you a budgie now, as I am forever in your debt. ******** CTRL + ALT + down ? does nothing for me????
