If you want to talk about eating my cock any more we need to discuss money.

Cheers, guys. I'll let her know.

Is it just me who feels incredibly bad when someone you know buys something that doesn't work as expected? I always feel a personal onus to resolve the matter, for some reason.

My mum once bought my brother a remote control car with a controller which looked thorugh the box like a standard 2 stick variety. Unfortunately, upon opening on Christmas day it was actually a 'one button press and it reverses while turning' type. He was really happy with it, I was absolutely gutted for her.

I'm doing some terms of hire for a client, and I've been looking at other similar organisations' terms just to see what's around. The terms and conditions for hire of the Natural History Museum for events has a rather peculiar list of things that are not permitted:

Pyrotechnics including glitter cannons
Fire eaters
Bucking broncos
Giant jenga
Helium balloons.

And that's it.

Given that things tend to get added to terms and conditions after they've had a problem with them, I can only assume someone had one *hell* of a party... :)

Is this the thread where you post random good stuff and bad stuff?

I've just been offered a job in Hong Kong!

(That's good stuff, in case there was any uncertainty)

It's some sort of HK business dealing with exporting games etc., and they seem to have riddled a few of our board members (not me, mind!) out of their cash at the moment. I blame Lewie.

Too right I am! I love HK.

Plus, it'll mean a pretty good payrise, most of which will be eaten up by the obscene cost of accomodation, but there you go. Cost of living is pretty low if you take accomodation out of the equation. And I'll get a housing allowance, anyway.

That sucks. Is that likely to apply to you, too? We didn't get a payrise this year, and I very much doubt we'll get one next year.
