Ian J.

?? confused ??

tramadol, was interesting indeed. prayed at the alter of porcelain for a hour.

Sorry Ian, I confused you with 11B for some daft reason. 11B had bad toothache yesterday!!

Stationmaster: Nearest normal Tesco is about 90 minutes commute away. Also, 20 pages of vacancies doesn't mean they're near me or are viable jobs for me. Looking closer, all near me are at small Tescos and are part-time. I need full-time income in order to get completely off benefits so I can rent a place to live.

Russ: I've thought about HGV, however, it costs a fair packet to get trained and go through the test and I have no money whatsoever. Also, it's not a job I'd stay in, and most employers will needle me on the likelihood that I'd go back to computer coding. I can lie, but my work history is what it is and tells the story.

Mike: I'd do the trolley work no problem, but I don't know that I have the right personality to do till work. I'm very much a practical technical person and not very good at 'people'.

Glad to hear your good news, Ian, all the very best.

That's great news, Ian.

Thanks all. It was an uneventful but successful day today :-) Now I just need to find the energy for tomorrow! :-D

How many mKt is a Pika (Ochotona princeps), even if they do eat their own poo?

Indeed, it should MilliKittens: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/04/08/1000_cat_raid/

You will be upsetting Stubby 47, he holds the franchise

I am trying to move on, you know...

Had a cracking thunder storm - no rain though.

Where!??

is the sky melting from the heat

Yes Oz, but I was referring to the Ping factor :-)

Hail, Lord of the Pings

Before the last one pings off - "My Precioussss"

cbeagleowner: against the cheeseheads? I'm really not sure... :$

As Kestrel!

Does this apply to Maltese falcons also?

Cold and dry.

Cold & dry.

Good news - congratulations!

DM - coding MS Access databases... :-)

Not oh dear, not for me. It's my go to skill, one I can do almost with my eyes closed. I need to move off it sooner though, there's just so little demand for it these days. I hope at some point I can manage to get HTML/CSS/Javascript/PHP/C++ trained into my head.

I know that feeling. We just have to keep buggering on. Tomorrow, as Scarlett said, is another day.

Thanks all for the kind words. It's fair to say that there's more to my situation than just RMweb, but I just sometimes have a day where something gets to me. But hey ho, I'll muddle through.

I didn’t realise you‘re so eagerly awaiting World War III, Ivan.

I’m sure he’s put out.

Dom, I'm seriously considering having my next haircut done in the style of Kim Jong-Un. All I need is to buy some prosthetic jowls....

Oh, and my hours have been changed. Previously I was 'working to live' and got to do lots for myself, now I seem to be 'living to work' and have no time for anything I enjoy...........what do network rail pay these days?!

I'm actually on less money now than when I was on the dole, due to transport costs and trouble getting in-work housing benefit...

That's one of the things that I think is really wrong with the system. My wife works her arse off in a kitchen but gets less a month than her dad who's on benefits. Crazy.

!Sananab

Isn't that a drug from the NHS?

Thar she blows!

Thanks for the recommendation.

Rather pleased I chose the pigeon.

I like peasants but couldn't eat a whole one

Dragonheart?

boae: on my own time for ultimately professional purposes;

CK: Thanks. I'll try and code up a banana or pasty or two

HB & DM: Native. I'm coding on Linux from Bjarne Stroustrup's 2014 book 'Programming: Principles and Practice using C++'

Nice. I hope you get to grips with it. I started out with C on a Commodore 64 many moons ago, but it was quicker back then to go straight to assembly language. On PCs I started with Borland then on to Visual Studio. Don't do much these days though I have a few bits I should update, just to keep my hand in.

I've literally only just started it, but it's very much a book to learn from, as it underpins a course at Texas A&M university. The other books of BS's tend to be more reference than teaching

No!, but I could bart slow with Marvin!

As long as you don't dent your Arthur.

And remember he was originally called Phartiphukborlz...

Well done Ian, I give blood also, it's a great feeling knowing it will help someone somewhere

Yep, well done Ian.

Congrats - I'd love to give blood - but I live in Canada and being british I am assumed to have tainted blood from BSE - So I can't. You are lucky to be able!

We'll skate over that.

take 2 aspirin

Seems everone is 'carping' on!

Do you have to go to a SDT clinic for that ?

Where are the Vikings?

Sorry, spam's off.

Anybody got a tin opener?

He and whomever potential "last POTUS" Trump names as Secretary of State will make quite a pair.

That'll be Nuland under Clinton I suspect.

Been nice knowin ya..!

I know a very nice cave up your way McCann.

Tsk, tsk. Don't any of you remember your secondary school algebra? ;-) (I certainly didn't)

I don't remember secondary skool let alone anything else...

I'd be careful about studying Al-Jabr, I hear it's a middle-Eastern plot to disrupt western sciences like leeching

For the Revolution, Comrades!

Good luck to you. Being a niners fan I hope you beat the seahawks

Syldenafil may be the answer?....
