To make up for the derogatory things I said about Pictish Land, I am eating a bowl of Scotch Broth.

Is this Global Warming or just typical shitty British weather?
Yesterday:
Snow-come-sleet, midday sun, afternoon rain.So far today:
Icy frost everywhere, sunshine.Remember, boys and girls, other countries always referred to the UK as "Wet, windy, and foggy," which was long before anyone knew the phrase global warming.

So there are plenty of drugs and sucky sweets on the market to loosen up your nose, but there is a gap in the market. We need something to dry up runny noses.

@Sabex The Thing is, if I can do it, ANYONE can do it. I'm off now to see if I can get Linus Torvalds to give me the finger.

You've gotta laugh: Everyone loves using Google's services, especially as they are free, as in money, and yet the very thing that allows Google to provide those services for free, adverts, folk complain about or do their utmost to avoid. I wonder how many people are bitching at this announcement from Google?

@Sabex I have a response to that, but I'm too scared.
Umm? I could tame it down, I suppose?

I'm not saying things are grim but I'm beginning to wish I hadn't destroyed that chain letter back in 1989 and instead sent it to ten friends.

I was never into skateboarding or BMX bikes as a child. We had clackers where the main preoccupation was attempting to smash your wrist bones into a bazillion pieces.

"The tune had been haunting London for weeks past. It was one of countless similar songs published for the benefit of the proles by a sub-section of the Music Department. The words of these songs were composed without any human intervention, whatever on an instrument known as a versificator. "

@strypey I'm not in favour. It allows people to do harm without fear of the offending Toot being produced.
