  1. You can always get a dongle on a payg basis - 3G is ?10/month for 1G, ?15/month for 3G and ?25/month for 7G - you can even buy just a day's worth at ?2.99 for 500MB - amounts are valid for 30 days. I have used 3G payg on laptop - switching to free wireless connection whenever in suitable surroundings - and found the coverage fine.

    And there are those of us who just can't resist a tag line like "Please don't post if you have no information". Sorry but it's like an almost unreachable itch... http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSAKuam7xIn61N4UFmfUSidMF7Yj99e9RIPV4DbTOin_mCH5cesAQ No one's blowing THESE bubbles baby!

    I did okay... actually I got awarded 16 out of 15 because I got them all right (of course) and also managed to correct the mangled grammar that framed some of the questions which earned me a bonus point, a gold star, and I was made milk monitor for next week :)). *Asks 'Miss' if he can clean the board*

  12. No, no, no, Frankie I've told you before - those are ELVES and they are helping your GNOMES catch imaginary fish in your imaginary pond. Clear?
  13. Anyone else watching Fury-Firtha fight find Ch5 gone blank? ETA: - went at end of round one, back 2 minutes into rnd 5 with blood all over Firtha, things at fever pitch and no apologies/excuses. Nice work 'five'.
  14. And something for the health conscious pescatorian... http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTrs6pJ18FYe6IajwPx-lpC5ASAQXU3wAo0Uo99j6NUu2SFo8FKFg ...whaddaya mean my feet smell??

  16. Nice post Nette; you nailed it, you made it your own, that's what this forum is all about, you owned the thread, when I first saw the thread title I thought oh-oh... but then you really delivered, and people wonder if this forum has any validity in the modern world - well I'd just tell them to read that post, you had this whole forum on its feet, I've read threads like this a million times but that was really something special, I'm looking forward to seeing more posts in the coming weeks - you're going through to Lond -oops!

  19. I'll swap you a Norwegian Lundehund for a Thai Ridgeback.

  23. Downton Abbey? Really? Oh well, I suppose this is meant in a 'guilty pleasures' kind of a way. I may record it and skip through to scenes with Maggie Smith in but otherwise I shall be tuning in to the last series of Spooks (I prefer the preposterous to the pompous). Now THERE the (wipe-clean) wallpaper will all be double sided and the colours constantly shifting...
  24. I don't believe his apology any more than the excuses he came out with at the time. He wants us all to believe he was one who journo'd "not wisely but too well"; that it was all a MISTAKE occasioned by his desire to give the reader as much information as possible and that he had been STUPID rather than malicious and devious. As for handing back an award that was going to be taken from him anyway and suggesting that, as this was a penance that in his mind outweighed the offence, he was being deliberately overly damning of himself- I think that was a PR quick-fix that no one is going to fall for. He will play the self-appointed martyr for a while but I think normal service will soon be resumed - he will just be better at disguising it.
  25. yes - surely you meant 73 - lions? *snigger*
