I certainly got asked to reset mine after the heartbleed bug as a forced reset..Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:Probably legit. I think they were affected by the heartbleed thing a while back, so probably doing a forced reset on everyone.

Am I being fished-in here or is it genuine? Anyone?

Yep makes me giggle like a child! Reminds me of a quote I think WtW would enjoy, "Dogs are fascists. When did you ever see a police cat?"
In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose its mind
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

Me and the wife both enjoyed that.thebish wrote:the ending never fails to cheer me up! cats are ace!

We have a dog that has never been able to come downstairs since he broke his leg as a pup (goes up, not trouble) . Our stairs are steep and narrow mind, but he won't have any of it. Not even cheese can tempt him down and we even paid a trainer to teach him to no avail.

Re: General Chit Chat
Hmm, hmm and thrice hmm. A colleague and I were just discussing taking one's car through the Chanel Tunnel when I asked - If you're sat in your car which is being carried on a train, would you still get Coachman's Lob? "Coachman's what?" he asked. "Oh behave, you know exactly what I mean...... don't you?". It's at this point that he's piped up to the entire office, girls included, "have any of YOU heard of Coachman's Lob?".
To the embarrassment of everyone, myself included, I've just had to explain to them all what it is.
It is a regular term for the condition, no?

Re: General Chit Chat
I drove from Woburn (absolutely lovely) to Cardiff Bay (great, so long as you stay in the immediate Bay area but rough as a bear's patouche just one step out of there. I went via Oxford, no comments needed, Abingdon, magnificent, and then the A34 & M4.
The first leg involved a trip through a town I've always assumed to be a really lovely market town County town of super-rich, super sorted Buckinghamshire no less. What an absolute shithole. I was stunned. Now, THAT deserves the attention of the social commentary of our man of Wokingham.
On a more positive note we 'discovered' (I doubt it was truly lost) a town called Cowbridge about 6 miles to the west of Cardiff. Utterly lovely. Recommended ... despite it being Welshish (though no sign whatsoever of that infernal language nor the tits who promote it).
