Be Excellent To Each Other

Pics please!

Too much effort.

A bit like this, but aged two years.

I'm back at work today after a week and a half off. We went to St Ives for a week. It was glorious. Being at work isn't.

When you were going, did you meet a man with seven wives?

You're the second person that has asked me that. The other one who asked is a funny guy so you're in good company.

Look at that - could have been a lovely compliment, then the last three words... zing!

"so you're ... in good company."

Cornwall or Cambridgeshire?

Or West Yorkshire

Cornwall. We actually stayed in Hayle which is just down the road but nevertheless, it was a great holiday.

Amongst other things, I had a free go on Star Trek Pinball, Time Crisis 2 and a racing game (Grid I think. MrsVision played that) in the one decent arcade I could find down there. They had a huge screen Space Invaders game too with a built in light gun. That was ace.

Good pastys in Hayle.

Indeed. There is also a new restaurant called Harry's Cali Style that's open just opposite the big Asda down there. It's a tiny place but the food they served (I say they, it was one woman cooking it all up) was absolutely amazing. I doubt she'll be there long before she is forced to expand and take on more staff.

Battleborn has gone free to play on XBO and Steam , PS4 next week

My employer has installed a couple of Framey O pods in our office. They're bloody huge and they look daft. We've had a bit of a shortage of space for making calls / video conferencing with our US office, but these are just bizzare. ( Not our office BTW )

What the hell? Is it just a modern/daft looking phone box? Are they sound proof?

None of them are dressed appropriately.

If I was in one of those I'd be feeling the festival fear. Any second now, some awful prick is going to come and tip me over in this portaloo and I'm going to drown in lumpen effluence. Only this time, it's boiling hot coffee, and my assailant is Bruce from sales.

They're soundproof, they have air con and a plug socket in them. I get the reasoning - we're spread across multiple sites so people often have to video or tele conference, but they don't half take up a lot of room, and they've been put in a really annoying place.

I like the name, though. Framey O Pod. Sounds like a fucking leprechaun or someshit.

I am going to try and get some of those for my work. Although, cost would be an issue. Could you not just use a wheelie bin?

Is she sitting like that because her knees don't fit?

Aww man, just read that the Spanish skater who saw a woman being attacked and then just rushed in to start battering one of the terrorists with his board has been confirmed as amongst the dead. What an absolute fucking hero.

Yep, I saw that earlier It must take something special to react that way.

Would it behove one to purchase killing floor 2 in order to participate in bezzieage? Or is it a flash in the pan soon to revert to gtav?

It's free, isn't it?

Yep, free for PS Plus members. Had my first bezzieage bash with it tonight; jolly good fun.

Yeah, it's properly fun.

I set things on fire. A lot.

I seeeee, I shall downloaderize it.

I found this story interesting -



A £98 return on that number of scratchcards is pretty poor.

Was the G-Man in Half-Life purposely modelled on James Comey? That's quite a coincidence otherwise.

Wiki says he was an assistant US Attorney in Richmond, VA in the mid-90s, so probably not

T-shirt fans...

I want an ' I'm Mary Poppins Y'all ' but cant find one

Talking of t-shirts, this was rather pleasing on Friday:


All about three hours before Kensington was actually declared.

You might want to look into something called "Google", because there's fucking loads.

Crikey, how will that help? No link to it. What is this 'google'? A person I should seek? Oh man.

There is a few, but the designs are a bit meh!

hush....

I saw a t shirt which was an A Wlng, a B wing , a Y wing an x wing and a Corellian light freighter all in silhouette with different coloured kines coming out the back but cannot find it anywhere. It was dope.

Is this it? I don't really know the spaceships that well.

edit - or this

Neither do the designers of those T-shirts. Enterprise is flying backwards!

They should do an A B B A t-shirt using the ships.

...I should do that.

I wondered that too. I wasn't sure if there was some obscure Star Wars ship shaped like the Enterprise.

Nope. I think that's TIE Interceptor, Falcon, Colonial Viper, Backwards Enterprise, Klingon Bird of Prey, ????, and Xwing.

Any ideas on the fifth one, anyone?

Cylon raider?

That's a great idea.

I just realised I could do one for Mrs Fop aka Abby.

But then I remembered she hates Star Wars.
