Fair point. We have no towels either.

>> the need for some researchers to assume everyone is thick and when a thread is started to come in 2 posts later and explain everything. Yes we know. Go away. <<

Do they assume everyone is thick ... or do you interpret that "these" researchers are assuming you are thick? Personally I don't mind researchers giving their interpretations on others comments ... but I reserve judgement whether or not to agree with those interpretations.

>> Back to the 7am brigade. "oh I'm gasping for a coffee" they say and usually empty the first pot before I've had any and then don't start the next. It drives me bonkers. <<

I think big signs are the only solution (like what you sometimes see in the toilets on the exit door "Now Wash Your Hands" or words to that effect). Do you have a "coffee club" with everyone contributing to pay for the drinks ... or is it paid for by the company?

PH- how poor my motivation is about responding to emails.

Going to a small gig in a pub (Natalie Duncan - beautiful singer) and find that a large proportion of the audience chatter right the way through. It wasn't as if there weren't other rooms that they could have gone to to talk loudly. They certainly weren't listening to the band.

Yoghurt ads on TV. When they peel back the lid there is:
a) no resistance (and they don't end up with yoghurt everywhere
and
2) no yoghurt on the lid (so they can't lick it off)

they use fake yoghurt pots if you ask me

What about lid-licking itself, Sho? Is it ok or is it an aberration like talking with one's mouth full?

usually gets my lid-lickings...

Actually, I don't eat yoghurt like that - I make my own in 1litre jars and mix it with fruit. The Gruesome Twosome like the shop-bought stuff (little heathen pests). #1 gives hers to the cat, #2 scrapes it off with a spoon.

I don't think I approve of lid-licking.

I keep meaning to make my own, cos I only like plain yoghurt anyway.

do it, you only need a container, some live yoghurt and somewhere warm to keep it. Wrapped in a towel

The lid usually has some slightly thicker yoghurt on it. You can't get it all with a spoon.

Lid licking is the way to go.

Oh misery, that means I have to buy yet another format.
PH Trains are full of handsome and helpful young men to stow me and my luggage, but they have disappeared when it's time to get the 30 kilos down from the rack. /PH

After finding my PS2 which has been lost in a cupboard for like three years, I hook it up to the telly only to find that it doesn't do analogue and therefore won't play nice with the RF connector

had to unsub from another thread due to the aforementioned

Noisy things in the sky. Bloody sick of 'em.

Yes. Me too. I am being woken by the dawn chorus at 5 in the morning daily at the moment.

Biologically they are the last dinosaurs, and their revenge has come.

What, Marine 1 and its accompanying fleet of Black Hawks?

Now you are scaring me Pit.

I woke up to this last week. This picture taken from my bed.

Clearly an incomotaxoexchecquerus. Matey, it was a nice time we had together.
