Told you I was tempting fate the other week, mate. Good heaven, no. My wife will likely cut my nads off if I spend anymore on it this year. I might still get away with a replacement monitor though, as she did give me the nod a couple of months ago - I reckon I can plead that one out on insanity. Events just conspire to get in the way of me actually buying one.

Add to your bookmarks, find a secret hotel on laterooms.com you are interested in staying at ( http://www.laterooms.com/en/secret.mvc), click book then click the bookmark to find out what the 'secret' hotel actually is  * This is not 100% tested and verified, it does appear to match however on the past 20 tries on various places

I tried one example and it worked for me Fin, almost half price compared to when it was revealed.

Just got my new keyboard connected. The Unifying technology from Logitech really is good.
Bought a mouse last year, which came with a Unifying adapter. Now I've just bought a Unifying keyboard, turned it on, it was recognised by the adapter and finished. Great.
The miniature mouse that came with it is using the adapter supplied with the keyboard/mouse boxed set is plugged into my girlfriends laptop.

Also, back from the dentist. Had the filling on the left hand side replaced today. It is still numb, but even when the injection was in full effect, I got severe pain from the drilling.  Still, it is over now. And she replaced the broken off bit of filling on the top left molar for free, result!

I've been to the dentist before and the first injection either was slow acting or in the wrong place and the pain was atrocious. They gave me a second jab and got me to wait while they treated someone else and then treated me. It was fine then and I couldn't feel a thing but it stayed numb for the rest of the day.

fin, I love you. This is awesome. Now we must stop this falling into the wrong hands so it gets abused by nonforumites, otherwise the flaw will be fixed.

Heh, maybe a mod could shift it to the deal thread so it's not lost when this gets too long, only shared it with a few people since developing the javascript tonight I'm busy moving house this weekend but if I get a chance I'm going to see if other sites are just as vulnerable like lastminute.com and others like that  Might have a use on my new site to host a load of these on as a wall of shame from a testers point of view  I've been looking at spots in london that are £380 a night going for £390 for 2 nights and some which are over a grand a night for £800 all in over a 2 night weekend It's awesomesauce to say the least

I just did a test comprising of 23 questions. None were multiple choice and only one was a single word answer. All others required certain amounts of text to be written. Some questions were also scenarios to be read and understood. Length of time for the test = 1 hour.
2.6 minutes per question including reading the question.
Are they [LIFTED] joking!!
