I did the cert tests back when Windows 95 was first released. Without having ever used Windows 95 or done anything more than browse the MS website and read reviews, I managed to get 98% in the tests! That said, the product pallete is a lot more complex these days... Well done Sas!

Toot This is also one of only five identified situations in which a vuvuzela is actually appropriate.In other news, one of the RAF-ers has brought a vuvuzela into the office. I sense it could be a long day.

I'm going to a wedding in October, a friend of the GF's. Typical, it'll be exactly a year anniversary to me wearing pretty much the same suit for my dad's funeral. Funny fecker, he did it on purpose.

If he did it on purpose he would have done it on the same day just to cause a scheduling clash

Why I like the X404 forums.....
The firewall at work doesn't know it's a "social networking" site, so it doesn't block it like most sites.

This car insurance lark is getting too easy.
Got my renewal quote through, which was - surprisingly - £40 down on last year. As ever, I went on the bargain hunt, and the same company came up in the comparison site at another £40 off.
On the blower for a few minutes, changed some details, and job's a good 'un.
I miss the Annual Car Insurance Hunt, you know.

To be fair, there's not much further they could have dropped. I got it down to £175-ish, fully comprehensive, protected NCB. I'm not complaining.

Hmm. Well, I think I'm happy to pay for some kind of service.  Besides, I reckon she just got very lucky.

So, I've just updated my copy of Firefox to 3.6.4, and I'm greeted by this -  Which is nice.
