Sometimex there is no option but to use a DM link I'm afraid, bu they do have a selection of pics that truly sum up the twisted death cult of apple and its now departed bearded messiah.


This vermin that walk our streets with their "mobile telephones". Life is too good for them. They should be sentenced to death and executed on the spot by tooled up ED citizens. once weve got the thieves, nonces and pigeons out of the way of course

actually, I have reconsidered my position. Ifone 5 is the turn point of humankind. This will have more impact that the discrovery of the Wheel, Fire, the printing press and Jez Kyle put together.


Its just a shame that Steve Jobs cant be here to see it, though I have a crafty feeling hes now sitting at Gods side up in heaven, on his face, with just the hint of his famed cheeky smile. The bearded nazi prig.

Does having the latest phone improve the quality of ones conversation? It is a phone isn't it, for talking? I speak as an owner of an unfashionable Nokia and wonder how much my life will be improved by 'upgrading'. Can someone explain why people queue for one of these things? It seems like an idiotic waste of time. What am I missing?

Not snorky. He shuns material possessions!


(I do think that the apple fanboy cult is pretty weird though)

I love gadgets but the thing is that with apple they hold back features they could easily put in each model (eg front facing camera, camera etc) . Then add them drip drip drip every six months. This cons the Appleheads into buying every release of their product.

At that price, hell no. Maybe bunged ?50 or summat (at least, that's what I used to budget for hard-up students, though there are now professional rent a crowd agencies who charge considerably more, but can get you the right 'look' of person for your queue).


There'll still be a few genuine nutters in there though.

    • What "stricter" consequences could there be for shoplifting (or any other crime) than being put into jail, do you think? Though our prisons are of course full enough already, without more people being shoehorned  into them.
    • Returning to the original question, I had my jabs at Tessa Jowell yesterday. I was early and I was  seen on time, and it was a lovely pharmacist who did them, but the admin beforehand (not by her) was a bit iffy. I was given forms to fill in but not told what to do with them afterwards, so I  presumed I had to take them into the consulting room, as the rest was supposed to be filled in by a clinician, but no! After some time had elapsed and I had found a seat (there was no information on where to sit either, so people were sitting in two separate areas, neither of which had many seats) my name was called and  the forms were taken behind the counter. Be aware if you don't have an appointment - even in the relatively short time I was there, three people turned up without appointments having been sent there by a GP (I presume) or having  previously been  asked by the pharmacy to come  back at a different time, and they were all sent away again because the pharmacy didn't have enough flu vaccine until the following day. I have no idea if this was due to a misunderstanding on the people's side, their GP's or the pharmacy's, but none of them were very happy, and one lady said she "couldn't keep coming back" 😭  At least one of them didn't seem to understand what he was being told, possibly due to a language issue. I felt quite sorry for the pharmacist, who was giving jabs all day on top of her usual workload but still managing to stay cheerful! Though she wasn't the one dealing with the unhappy people! I have a sore arm from the Covid jab (I chose to have the jabs in different arms), but no other ill effects so far, touch wood. 
    • Line speed and the strength of your Wi-Fi signal are two separate things.  The first is determined by the type of connection (fibre/copper etc) to the outside world and the second is the connection between the device (printer/TV/laptop/tablet etc) and the router. If you are connecting a device to the router using cables (as Alec1 is) then this is will give the best possible connection but isn't practical for many without a degree of upheaval and even then not all devices (tablets for example) will allow a wired connection. So you relying on the quality of the Wi-Fi signal from the router to the device and this will depend on the quality of the router, the type of Wi-Fi connection (the frequency), line of sight etc - many different things.  This is why some people opt for a "mesh" type setup which is supposed to give a solid quality of Wi-Fi signal around the house with little or no blackspots.  It's expensive though and still requires the devices that send and receive the signal (like the plug-ins you have) to be wired to the router.
    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.
