  1. "Muji is distinguished by its design minimalism, emphasis on recycling, avoidance of waste in production and packaging, and no-logo or "no-brand" policy." Oh my God.. look out.. you're fashionable!
  2. It costs hardly anything (one formica counter, one enthusiastic wannabe Gok shop assistant) and it gives your shop an air of ooh-la-la. As The Devil says, it's simply another means of PR. Selfridges gets one. JL wants to be more like Selfridges, so they get one. HOF wants to be more like JL so they get one. Debenhams wants to be more like HOF, so they get one. (I don't know who comes after Debenhams.. I just know I don't want to go there.) How hard can this possibly be to understand?
  3. "Ooh, look, they do personal personal shopping." (walk on) That's what it's for, 99.9% of the time. It's only a vacant counter with 'personal shopping' written above it. With a buzzer just in case someone actually wants to call their bluff.
  4. Come on, Huggie. "Not giving a flying @#$%& about fashion".. that's a pretty bold statement. I mean, what do you do.. simply select clothes on the basis of (1) applicable gender and (2) approximate sizing - and the rest can go blow? Unless you're over-egging the argumental pudding 6000% is the reverse direction, as per.
  5. I guess it has to default-start somewhere. Better to start it when there's definitely plenty of stuff happening on screen and it looks all, like, cool and stuff.
  6. Medley.. It default-starts playback at 7am, but you can set it to start playback from any time with a couple of clicks - and see/list all landings, as ianr has done above. In any case the bar chart showing all landings for the 24-hour period isn't exactly hidden.. it's right there as soon as you access the page, clearly showing planes landing from 4ish on all days when there's a westerley wind. No big secret.. there they are!
  7. Not.. The C word.. (puts fingers in ears)
  8. It's difficult for me, you see Ms B. Because I excel in everything I do (I was always very gifted and constantly top of the class). Sometimes it makes it hard for me to mix with 'average joes' like yourself.
  9. But I'm sooooooo superior to you, Ms B. why should I even deign to care what you think? I am unique. You are just a don't-know-better. And as such, I absolve myself of any responsibility for any hurt I may have caused you.
  10. There. How did that feel. Nice? It's just a little thing though. Not really worth picking-up on - like you say.
  11. The problem is, Ms B, that you're really stupid - and I'm far more clever than you. Therefore I am at liberty to ignore your feelings and carry on in my chosen manner.
  12. Banned from 'Cable Forum (your number one cable resource)' The ignominy!
  13. A pointless knotting of knickers. To see this thread in any sort of malevolent light is is to completely misunderstand the dynamic that exists between UDT and.. A lot of our people. He's ON this thread, contributing to it, and ENJOYING it. Everyone's a winner. Unless you're steadfastly determined to be offended on someone else's behalf - when in fact they're more than happy to play. Perhaps UDT is to be the last truly interesting thing about this place. Now there's a thought.
  14. When you're a delusional narcissist, a thread devoted to simply quoting your own brilliance back at you - whilst simultaneously securing yourself a greater audience - will only really be seen and taken as a compliment.. If I'm wrong, of course, UDT is more than welcome to 'report his own posts as ridiculous' (is there a button for that?) and the whole thing can duly disappear.
  15. The House Fly 5-7mm long. http://www.emilydamstra.com/illustrations_big/house_fly.jpg Annoying buzzing sound. Swat with rolled-up newspaper. *Bob*
  16. There's nothing wrong with Nunhead but - like most things in life - it's priced accordingly.
  17. 2 minutes 19s in.. 20 million? It was worth it. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-19237306
  18. Did anyone check to see if service was included? (pats pockets for wallet)
  19. It's not all good news. seems the Belarusian shot putter Nadzeya Ostapchuk has been stripped of her Olympic gold medal after failing a 'Crocodile Dundee' test.

  21. The Olympic park is 2.5 sq km. To put this into a practical context, this is 50,000 smaller than Wales - or you could fit 357 football pitches inside it. I'm not sure how many double decker buses it would be.
  22. Greek national anthem. Downer.
  23. The unstoppable cheesiness of it all is quite endearing. Taio Cruz's opener was a winner. Sent the Eurotrash wild!
  24. Top-class display of MumDancing by the Spice Girls.. And Boris. Gold!
  25. Sounded like someone nudged the volume fader during the fashion section voiceover overdubs VICTORIA BECKHAM!!!!!
