    It's a shame ones ears doesn't keep the volume high when listening to music loud

      Your ears have a logarithmic response to sound. That's so you can hear a pin drop but don't damage your ears when you drop a plate in the kitchen :)

    Horray! Have a full sized computer again. Wish I had thought to buy speakers, but at least I'm no longer typing on that teeny tiny phone screen :)

      I used to work on a full size computer in the 1970's. It took up two large rooms in the basement of an office block :)

    Well done Iceland. Nice to see a team that didn't spend half their time rolling on the floor in feigned agony. Hope you go all the way.

      It makes you wonder why footballers get such high wages. I feel that if they were paid much the same as (say) a skilled factory worker there would be plenty willing to play and would provide just as entertaining games (IMO)

    Do not argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with years of experience.

      Well I've got the years of experience, I shall be 75 in a few weeks lol. As for brainpower, most people on this forum seem a lot brighter than me so I seem very qualified:D

    How nice the staff are on Fairfax Ward, Warwick hospital where I arrived in an ambulance last Saturday. Bit of heart trouble but home again now and none the worse.

      Mississippi - you would need to live near Warwick, GB and find yourself overnight in A&E. A minor heart does the trick. If you manage it give my regards to Marcia, my favourite nurse! :D

      Start the ride home? Drinking at work? Sounds like promotion - if so congratulations. I am spending a lot of time on poetry at the moment, but I also look in quite often to see if I can contribute anything.

      Better keep off your bike until you sober up. Good or bad reason for getting "ratted"?

    The one who fallows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone will usually find himself in a place no other has ever been before.
