  1. Don't they make them from old bagpipe bags?
  2. I have just had the misfortune to need to speak with a "Support Center" for a UK company. First of all it was email and the person who replied sent a copy/paste reply that literally had nothing to do with the question I asked. OK so I then tried to telephone and I think I got shunted off to India or something and I had a real hard time understanding what the guy was saying to me (and I am used to living overseas and dealing with bad English) and eventually I had little choice than to give up as I was getting nowhere (apart from Annoyedzville). Got to wonder if all this kind of thing is
  3. Maybe not, but it is over a year away. Things can change. As we have seen in the last 2 or 3 months.
  4. You might you know.... But sticking to the fairly large and well known places and it will be difficult not to be happy.
  5. JOE THE STRUMMER Republican icon Joe the Plumber may release a country music album. The Ohio labourer, who was plucked from obscurity by the Republican ticket after he challenged Senator Barack Obama over his tax plans, has signed up with a Nashville public relations and management firm. Also helping guide his new prospects are country musician and producer Aaron Tippin, who has campaigned with Mr McCain and released the recent song "Drill Here, Drill Now", and a booking agent, Bobby Roberts.

  7. Quote: he sure looks a little unbalanced Interesting. Apart from the obvious tattoo on his forehead, why does he look unbalanced? I agree he does, but --- why?

  10. As the world goes mad, it's good to hear not everyone is. Quote: A Washington, D.C. law judge broke down in tears and had to take a break from his testimony because he became too emotional while questioning himself about his experience with a missing pair of pants. Administrative law judge Roy Pearson is representing himself in civil court and claimed that he is owed $54 million from a local dry cleaner who he says lost his pants, despite a sign in their store which ensures "Satisfaction Guaranteed." The case gained national attention soon after the lawsuit was filed. The p
  11. With a controller? Mwahahahahaha. Like a platformer, but so much more.
  12. I found this interesting and thought I'd share.

While the majority of such establishments do accept foreigners, the survey showed the country's more traditional inns are not as hospitable, even as the government mounts a major campaign to draw more tourists from abroad. Japan's countryside is dotted with thousands of small, old-fashioned lodgings called "ryokans." Many are family run and offer only tradit
  13. I'm going to do some exploring, got a new car and organising my holidays from work to hit lots of Sundays/Mondays. Here's to a great season. Oops, a bit longer to wait.
  14. Quote: my package would have to be repriced kathfern, how much has it changed?
  15. Fine weather today. Going to get out I think and check out those mountains.
