Legally of course it's 18+ versus under 18, though the criminal justice system - and other parts of the law - have often in the past used 21 as the cut off (e.g. youth custody vs. adult prison). Have we somehow drifted over the years from 21 to 18 then 16 as the marker of adulthood? Is this sensible?]]> The Lounge http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,142040,142471#msg-142471 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 01:28:36 +0100 http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,141351,142470#msg-142470 louisiana -------------------------------------------------------

Would also argue that audiences tend to identify with the source of power - you may be familiar with the feminist theory that women watching westerns 'surprisingly' identified with the cowboys rather than the token and usually powerless female characters - so in this case they're absorbing an understanding that violence means you're powerful/brave/funny/sexy.

Due to an immenent relocation of my office to a much cooler room in the house (It hit 33 degrees in the loft today!) I have for sale my "Air conditioning unit" Essentially you stock it up with water, and this drips through the fan's airstream, and cools the air in the room. OK, not as cooling as pure air conditioning, but then again, you won't get pure aircon for £20, which is what I want for this.

Image of it (Boxed, as it lives in the box when not used) is attached.

Cathie,

Two points to make here.

1) The scanning and captioning of your prints is going to take the most time, hence be the most costly. Being realistic, it's unlikely you could scan in, and caption more than 30 shots per hour, and that's likely to cost you about £10 an hour at least.

2) If you're writing captions on the back of the images to then give to someone, why not just get the whole lot printed, and stick them in an album, and caption them yourself? You'll be doing the same amount of writing...

Good luck..

Imperial tools are readily available. Try Halfords in Brixton, they do full sets, and their tools are very good quality too. Oh, and of you can afford them, get a set of ratchet spanners, they make life so much easier!

On the garage front, guy I rent form has about 20 or so garages, all with power and water, so will ask him if he has a spare at the moment. I'm undertaking the preparation of an Austin A40 for rallying, so always keen to help out anyone wanting to get their hands greasy!

What MK of Mustang is yours BTW?

Just to report, Alethea did an 8th birthday party for my daughter yesterday and it was excellent. It's definitely something for a particular stage, as they have to focus enough to get something done, and it's pretty girly. But we had a range of personalities and they all found something they liked among her fantastic collection of beads, from the gaudy to the cool!

Then HonaloochieB+ takes his place on the see-saw. HonaloochieB squares his manly shoulders, and Honaloochieb and Honaloochiebeta assist HonaloochieBeJaysus to a standing position atop the aforementioned manly shoulders.
He braces himself and takes a leap toward the raised end of the see-saw.
With immaculate timing HonaloochieB+ steps off the see-saw just before HonaloochieBeJaysus arrives at the other end.
The crack of breaking bone is audible around the arena. HonaloochieB+ is doubled up with mirth. HonaloochieBeJasus is is screaming with pain.
Clowns come on with a stretcher to take a way the injured acrobat. He leaves the ring bellowing threats and empracations at his nephew.
At one of the ring side seats a little girl is heard to ask "Mummy, what's a c*nt's trick?"

I was called today by my bank, First Direct to ask if I was in Germany. No I said. Evidently someone used my cloned card to try and withdraw euros. They had the pin number luckily the bank stopped the transaction. I have used all the places you mention above Libra Carr, recently. So my card has been cancelled and I am awaiting the issue of a new one. If they use remote cameras then could we put our hand over the keypad to stop anyone seeing the pin?
