I played it when it came out and thought it had some decent levels here and there. The multiplayer was brilliant back then, too.

I thought it was a fine game.

I'm sick of seeing Cowell or Joe's face every fucking where I look. This is not a good sign for the festive period.

Shame. Olly could have done with the money to fix his stupid knees.

ProTip I found out the hard way: changing the locks on modern PVC doors involves a £20 new cylinder from Screwfix, a screwdriver, and takes 30 seconds. I paid a locksmith £60 to discover this.

The top locking point on our front door went all brokedy. The man took it away, leaving the centre and lower points, about 3 weeks ago and hasn't come back yet.

I think I/we'll probably end up moving out before he comes back.

So. Riles worked late.
Riles went for a pint with the wife on her way home from the gym
Riles and Rileswife get home and order Thai on Just Eat
Just Eat send 'Food is being cooked' email
Time passes
No food arrives
Riles phones Thai to enquire of whereabouts of nourishment
Thai has voicemail
Voicemail says Thai closed Monday to Wednesday
Riles riles
Riles complains to Just Eat, using helpful text chat dialogue
Just Eat Monkey offers indeterminate number of pointless points with no obvious value
Just Eat Monkey offers no apology, or course of action
Just Eat Monkey suddenly loses keyboard powers despite, frankly, most excellent politeness on Riles' part
Riles evaluates points position
Points can be exchanged in shop
Shop has nothing for exchange at all
Riles posts story in iPhone thread on beex by mistake

Conclusion. Never order from Just Eat, even if it saves you speaking to people who speak english as an 18th language. And check what thread you are in.

Hahahahah! I used to have to deal with Publicis when I worked at the Multinational Cosmetics Company. I am not in the least surprised, the bunch of sub-Nathan Barley cunts.

I mean that in a nice, non-libellous way, obv.

Bloody hell. That video was cringe-worthy. Some half-decent comments on there for once though.

At least there's no danger of that happening where I work. Standing on tables? Our H&S department would have a fit.

I'm not in Oxford

I will be on Thursday, for working-at-home-from-friend's-house on Friday, for last-day-of-term drinking with teachers.

Which starts mid-afternoon, when I can't sign out til 4 per contract, meaning at-least-5 pub arrival. >:|

Kind boss has agreed that I can sign out early if I have enough hours in the pot, despite contract

I've already put in 1:40 by the end of Monday :DD

Hang on, did I already say this?

I won't be arriving until tea-time - I'm running out of the work christmas lunch asap, so hopefully before 4 but no later than. Nice quiet evening in, ready for working Friday and heading to the pub. One day, though.

Oh, you could be right. DVI would be a far more sensible option though.

Right, I know I've moved to a quiet street, but it's not normal for people to walk down the middle of the road instead of either of the 2 pavements is it? No? Didn't think so. There must be something in the water today, that's been around 20 folk while I've been drinking a cuppa.

Happy new hoose Grim...

Is the living room located two floors below and a short tube journey away from the kitchen?

Also congrats. Wish I had a house :'(

I sometimes wonder why I don't get that kind of job, and then I remember that I find it impossible to hide the fact that I think the potential client is batshit mental and proceed to try and talk them into something more sensible.
