Well that was easy.

???

Thanks for those.

Neigh.

There are a lot of sensitive souls about. If we listened to them we'd be living in a pile of grey goo.

I give it two weeks.

Very pleased for him and congratulations on the birth of his daughter. I might even watch the game now.

Gonna be cold up there come the next ice age but all being well you should be clear of the glaciers.

Not until the next ice age. http://www.express.co.uk/news/science-technology/387971/Scientist-predicts-earth-is-heading-for-another-Ice-Age What to do? http://www.technologyreview.com/article/416786/global-warming-vs-the-next-ice-age/

There had been no increase for the last 15 years.

I totally agree, Minty. The more important question is what to do about it. I get really annoyed when I see those signs when you enter Eastleigh Borough which state 'Tackling climate change'.

No need to actually play the games then

As I argued above, figures like this are meaningless. It's like weighing the available evidence on a pair of scales. I see that your author has been very rigorous in rejecting any arguments agains AGW and does have a book to promote. He even blames the 'gullible public'. We are debating the number of angels on a pinhead.

Oh I don't know, I would have thought 3% a reasonable doubt.

Thanks for that. So I presume the result isn't weighted by population?

Is it still regional at this stage?

The gerbils are to keep the snake fed. No, I can't see the attraction either.

Two wives for the price of one???

Go to the beach after dark and ask for 'Phil'. He should be there most nights when there isn't a match on.

I've had the Virgin for over a year now and the speeds are much better than the previous ADSL Plusnet. I've just had my front drive relaid with block paving and I've still got to re-bury the Virgin cable. It's actually two cables siamesed together, one about 10mm for the coax and another about 4mm for the telephone. The total length to the green cabinet is over 100 metres. I've got three TiVo boxes hanging off it plus the WAP/modem and it works well. The download speeds are limited by the receiving device rather than their network, the iPhone being the slowest at over 30mbs. I have the full package and my only complaint is the cost, especially now that we've lost ESPN Premier League matches.

Ok thanks. That's not what the Virgin Media fellas told me but what do they know, they're only installers.

It's very hush-hush, nobody talks about it.

Fibre optic only refers to the connections to your exchange. From their to your house it's traditional copper.

Cup game. I didn't tell her it was standing only in the away end and she wasn't too pleased because it ruined her afternoon nap. We made a weekend of it and stayed overnight in a hotel so I don't know what she was complaining about.
