England, England, England. This morning you had me start to believe in you. Jimmy was stubborn, and Cook looked solid. What the hell did they put in your tea???

Ooh, that's not good.

Well it seems we decided to stick another nightwatchman in, in the shape of Mr. Finn, although tomorrow morning there's noone to follow him.

Anyone happen to know any long-ish (4 day) stay carparks in Dover? A couple of websites that seem to be more car-park-comparison-sites failed to load their results pages.

Isn't there one at the ferry port?

Mayhaps. I'm being a lazy arse. Well I'm not really, I need to get home, and I don't have an interweb connection there. I'll look tonight if I cba to go to campus.

Replaced my FUBAR car radiator today on my accord (really, there was pretty much nothing left of the cooling fins) and got a bit of a shock with a load of water dripping from the exhaust, hopefully it's not head/head gasket failure (doesn't seem to be dripping now after a short rag down the back roads with some iffy performance to start)

Also fixed my central locking (tool who had the car before me took the fuse out, never bothered me but as I was working on it thought to check), just the handbrake cables left and possibly needing to change the radiator fans as they weren't spinning up, and to buy a couple of fobs for the remote locking and programme them.

And to do the rest of my half day of work this weekend among other things

Those tw@s at Hotmail could really do with a kick up the arse... If it isn't randomly logging me out, it's saying I can only delete one item at a time, or locking up and failing even a refresh, or...

It's a free service. If you want good, solid reliability, pay for it.

I know, but they're the ones trying to compete and keep me as a 'customer', not to mention every time they go near the thing they fcuk it up...

Doesn't sound like they're trying very hard.

(note: Apart from anything else, I have some reservations as to whether somebody getting something for free actually counts as a 'customer' by any real definition in the first place.)

No they definitely aren't trying very hard, especially considering they'd ideally like to drag me over to Bing and their other services, which I guess is where the 'customer' aspect comes in - like Google with it's text ads and other services for instance.

I'm not under any illusions about why such things are 'free', it's just M$ recently resorted to recommending Chrome to view Hotmail, as an example

The problems that I have currently are because of their use of third party cookies. So I use another browser just for hotmail.

Put in your post code and be shown, for example, just how big The Great Wall Of China would be from where you live.
Great way of grasping the scale of items in the news or famous historical land marks.

seriously impressive
