Anyone we know :D

I was given a bottle of 1955 Bodegas Palacio Glorioso for my b'day. Hugh Johnson sez it's splendid but does not go into individual vintages.

Assuming it has been kept properly, is there any point in my opening it?

I can recommend a stay at the Radisson SAS Hotel at Stansted. . . .

They have an unusual wine waiter . . . . :D

I did once and it was a nightmare!!

He kept repeating I ain't getting on no plane FOOL!!

Ps Sorry about that!

Come on we have all seen it and I'm sure anyone with a sense of humour has come out with a TG line at one time in there life!! and did you know that film is now 20 years old!!!

Kid serving me (maybe mid to late teens) saw my copy of Txxxxs Pxxxxt and the following conversation ensued:-

You fly a plane?

Yes

What sort?

PA28

Is that Russian?

No, American, a Piper

Does it have missiles?

No, it has passengers, like that...

My fridge service geezer was over an hour late yesterday. Why? because his White Van's GPS database did not have my postcode, and they don't provide their fleet with paper A-Z mapbooks anymore.

Baffled me (easily done). Is this launching an F-15 from a submarine?

Did anyone watch the Jamie Oliver “School Dinners

Look at the back of the leaflet on the Earl's Court Fly! show in the latest Today's Pilot :D

You handsome devil!

A silly little question, but I'm sure the expertise is out there...

Most times when I open MS Word, I want to select an existing document, or use one of a dozen or so templates. I've got that down to a fine art, and am happy with that bit....

I referred in another thread to a wonderful kitchen sink drama film with a wonderful cast including Richard Burton and many other greats.

I have only seen it once, and that was at 3 o'clock in the morning with a baby with colic thrown over my...

He just read out a statement saying he will not apologise.

He says the journalist should learn to take it and the Daily mail group are racist.

He cites the press coverage as the cause of all the offence rather than his comments.

I've got a huge table in Word with about 250 rows over 15 pages. Unfortunately, I've buggered it up a bit and need to delete some rows. Surely there must be a way to do sensible automatic numbering?! I say sensible because I can do it, but the...

My local exchange has been enabled, bless it.

Q1: I presume this means that any old supplier can offer me broadband access at last?

(WIth thanks to 'Hendrik' for pointing this out.)

Or if you're still tempted, don't her tie you up.

I attempted to speak to an American today.

Gordon Bennet! (which they wouldn't get) Are they fick or what?

First of all when I started speaking there was silence - brain does not comput strange tongue this person speaks - so I repeated (my...

Now that I have got used to the quality of both DVDs and digital TV, I find watching VHS recordings less than satisfying - whether pre-recorded or home recorded. The concept of HDD (or DVD) based recorders has an attraction.

With the following...

Hello All,

I will be departing Gatwick on the 13th March in the evening and coming back at 21-00 on the 28th of March.

My plan was to find friends from here, there and everywhere who live very close to Gatwick so I could leave my car at their...

Anyone out there got any experience/knowledge of the TVR 3000M?

With some satisfaction I have been using Outlook and syncronising it with my P900.

Does anyone have any experience of plastic-repair? I received a soap dispenser for Christmas, but it suffered a bit in the shipping and has a small, spider-like crack on the edge of the base. I was wondering about getting some thick glue and...

This is a long shot but seeing as how everyone is so brainy on here I thought I'd ask.

SWMBO has just bought a StreetKa and switched her policy to it, leaving her old car (Mazda 323) uninsured.

Seeing as we are now running two impractical cars...

I have got the builders in. Guess what? they arrive on time, they work fast, they tidy up after themselves, their work is first rate, their prices are low, they do what they said they'd do and it costs what they said it would cost.

Who are these...

They've started. With the snow expected tomorrow, we are being urged to 'make sure your journey is really necessary'. We all have lives to lead, what is an unnecessary journey? I'm sure my boss would be highly amused if I rang in to say I had...

I've always used McAfee and paid for updates which it manages automatically. My renewal is due in 7 days - it has just told me so.

Now G-BLEW is no longer G-BLEW, 2 Donkeys has one donkey, Kentish Fledgling has well and truly earned his wings and Blue Robin not only hasn't got one, but seems to have flown the nest (bet you're lurking :wink: ) what will be next?
