Yes, bit harsh :(

I was sitting here, listening to Stevie Wonder and admiring my tattoo (I was literally just sitting at my desk, staring at my arm) when sat next to me somebody started laughing. I smiled and wondered why, then I turned around and SURPRISE RUSSELL and lovely lady Caz from IT. Then everyone poured in with flowers and baby gifts. Then I got really embarrassed and was asked to say something, so said something inappropriate about a vibrating whale and went red.

Now have to sit here embarrassed for two and a half days.

Stoney-Bridge !

Quote:
Cult surreal comedy sketch team Absolutely are to reunite for a radio series.

The group are recording four new episodes for Radio 4 to be aired from 6 September.

Gordon Kennedy, Morwenna Banks, Pete Baikie, Moray Hunter and John Sparkes, minus sadly Jack Docherty will perform new material featuring popular characters from their Channel 4 heyday, including Denzil and Gwynedd, The Little Girl and the Stoneybridge Town Council.

The new 30-minute shows are being recorded at Glasgow's Oran Mor on 5 August and 6 September.

Because I work primarily with chilled food, our office fridge is unlike most office fridges as they are so full of commercial samples. We have several, and huge. I don't think I am up to this task.

I shall instead photocopy my boobs.

You just need to also put on a cheesy jumper, play some Slade, drink cheap wine from a cup and you'll have created your own mini office Christmas party.

My sister once wore a white and red polkadot jersey to a race and spent the entire day being aggressively overtaken on hill sections. ON YOUR RIGHT!

Hello.

I have a website.

I don't sell anything (cept my body) (and not on my website).

I don't have a SSL Certificate.

I'm being offered such a certificate.

Question is: do I want a squirly Certificate?

DO I?

Does your website deal with PII (ie. do you have people enter their email address into a form or something)? If so, then potentially, yes. It's certainly not a requirement, though.

If not, no.

I have one of those contact forms that you fill out and it sends me an email. The site doesn't retain any information as far as I'm aware.

If I did get one, would that help my google ranks or some shit?

Yup: http://searchengineland.com/google-star ... tes-199446

No-one knows how much, of course, but it's "not a lot".

Does that sound like good value? Apparently it's one-click installation.

It doesn't say if that's per annum or a one-off price. Do you have to keep paying for them or what?

Yeah, per year. That's well into "too cheap" territory, as far as I'm concerned.

Thwate want £128 per annum, Symantec want £259.

Some truly horrific events unfolding here:

Image

http://www.fleetwoodtoday.co.uk/news/fl ... -1-7359386

Quote:
The group of scarecrows worst hit were at St Nicholas Church.

The theme is May Day and features scarecows which appear to be dancing around the May pole.

Children going to local schools pass the scarecrows every day and one mum, who did not wish to be named, said her children felt really sad and sorry when they saw them.

A trio of scarecrows pinned to railings at Cardinal Allen School were affected and a scarecrow at the ‘Welcome to Fleetwood’ sign on Rossall Road was also found out of place.

Hope you get everything sorted with the minimum of fuss. Everything covered by insurance?
