Be Excellent To Each Other

Which prat? We have a lot of prats.

Is snow leopard any good? I might get it for my laptop.

*nods*

Hang on - you had a strop? Link pls.

Well, there's that welsh prat with the northophobia, that midlander with the narcolepsy, that scary lesser and the hairless deviant with the photoshop mojo.

They're all fine.

It seems a wee bit faster and needing-to-be-reset-less than Leopard, and crucially, didn't break anything.

I can't remember what it's supposed to do differently. Oh, the menus for the launchbar thing look nicer.

It was quite pathetic. Search for 'worthy'

The beers are, due to my friend's staggering ineptitude and last-minute-while-I'm-in-a-meeting-plan-changing-powers, in Chancery Lane. However that means we get to go to the Most Awesome Ye Olde Mitre, so inadvertantly resulting in Win.

Under the hood, loads. Visible, nuffink. Hence it was cheap. Mimi: I haven't put it on yet.

Re-set? I never re-set mine I might get it as it is only £25 or something, isn't it?

£8 if you bought a Mac after June 2nd. Or £25 if you own Leopard. Or £130 if you don't meet either criteria.

Both mine are leopard, though I doubt I'll bother buying it twice. They should do some multi-puter thing.

Ah found it, and I now know which 'prat' you refer too..

Yuss.

Hmm, I don't much either.

Protip - Don't pay your tax bill.

You haven't paid your tax bill and now you can't afford it? No problem, Business Support service will defer it at the drop of a hat.

Paid your tax bill but have made huge losses so far this year that will clear it, but you'll go bust if you dont get that money back soon? They don't want to know and are keeping your money until you've done next years tax return. Bastards.

Don't pay credit cards off either.

Right, PUB!

Toodles xxxxxxxxx

You is made of super-win x

I keep forgetting about Snow Leopard.

Why did you get yours for £8 Doc?

I can't be arsed to read nine words.

Oooh not too bad. £22.99 for me.

It should be pointed out at this stage that there is no serial number, no activation and no way for Apple to identify a individual copy of Snow Leopard. Go figure......

So, the last few weeks my sister has been phoning over and over dropping hints...

'Edward said that we should throw away the second cot because Dylan's grown out of it now, but as I explained, my sister might want it one day'.

'I was sorting through the babies' summer clothes, they've both grown out of many of them, but I'm saving them, because someone will probably want one of them soon.'

She keeps on digging for info because my mother happened to spot me in Boots a while ago and I was buying Folic Acid, but I buy it fr other health reasons, and gossip, it seems, spreads.

I have been answering my sister with a lot of 'oh?' and 'I see' type answers. I feel like each answer frustrates her that little bit more.

The latest phone-call went:

Sis: Hi. I thought I must call you, because I had a dream about you last night.
Me: Oh? Did I die?
Sis: What? No. No, no, no. You were pregnant.
Me: Oh?
Sis: Yes, and I thought I must give her a call to find out - I've been trying to call you for three days! (she has)
Me: But you only had the dream last night?
Sis: ...
Me: Ooh, got to go, doorbell!

Snarf.

And if you only use one computer at a time anyway...

Huh How weird. Still, £39 is quite good, I don't mind paying that.

And if you are installing Snow Leopard, best check that your critical software is Snow Leopard happy. I've got the laptop over with only slight pain, but the tower isn't a battle I'm willing to fight yet.

Pro-tip. Thanks, Chinny. I didn't go for it straight away as I wanted to make sure people weren't reporting that it borked things.

I can't imagine a liquorice+sugar product having a "use by" date*, and it's perfectly legal to sell "best before"s after that date, so long as you make no attempt to disguise that fact from the customer.

* 12ft pork pies with eggs in: not so much.

Just think about all the woolies you'll be able to knit for a baby though Mimi

@Mimi just make sure she doesn't find out about the obsessively continuously knitting tiny mittens and the nausea and stuff

Seems it even spreads as far as here :

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4819&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=30

Well, I would for a real baby, not for one that only existed in sister's head, though. Trust me, though. if/when I manage to have kids they'll be dressed up in all manner of stupid. I don't care - it's not cruel until they are old enough to complain.


I do knit baby clothes - but for her kids. Actually, I decided the last dress was too nice to give her, though

Anyway, I'm not. I like the fact that it was another phonecall opportunity for her wasted, though. Hehe, she must be so frustrated.

Congratulations Mimi!

Have you thought of any names yet?

"Richard Gaywood"

Beteo Memeo

Titler.

I'm going to name it after you. You know why

And on that bombshell.

(Not after Zio then? Really?)

I demand this takes place one day. I'd be happy with just the middle names.

I imagine that by Space Year 2037, the name Richard Gaywood will no longer be childishly amusing nor ban-able.

Hehe, leave poor Zio alone.

Anyway, no, I am not pregnant. Sister was also talking about saving a Christening gown for me the other day. She really doesn't know me

After his Daddy?

That was what I was insinuating, aye.

Thursday game: Cheese or Font

Stolen from popbitch.

Don't steal my job.

1st October and 1st April are drink money days at work. I got a bottle of Tanqueray planning for this weekend to be a gin weekend. Now I'm wishing I'd bought some whisky :/
Might have to go back in tomorrow. Also bought myself another bottle of red wine...if I play a game tonight I may be tipsy. I have done nothing but drink red wine and eat awesome food every evening this week, so I figured one more night won't do me any harm.

That's what Mimi said.

And on the 5th day, Zardoz made mini-mimi...

Would that make Mimi mini-mimi-mummy?

Right, let's stop this before it gets uncomfortable. Oh.
