Re: Tales of Win Thread

Both black pudding and haggis are very good things indeed. As with many things, it's all about the quality. Bad ones are terrible and good ones are sublime. Same goes for both hoggs pudding and white pudding.

You're all completely wrong.

Well, about black puddings, so half wrong.

Happy Cat


	Quote: "I'm having a problem with my router...the problem is the router is apparently very attractive to my cat. She sleeps on top of it for most of the day and frequently knocks the aerial about, taking my wireless network down. She stays in the position shown above for hours, with the top of her head against the top of the router, as if she's interfacing with it somehow. "I'm sick of my internet going down all the time due to this - is there a fix? I was thinking perhaps Be could send me a decoy router, then I could hide the real one somewhere else. I'm not sure if she could tell the difference."

Someone at the Co had both a bit of a sence of Humour and has got a bit of free advertising out of it

Thankfully my cat cant get to my router which is just as well as it might bring the whole shelf it sits on down

Re: Tales of Win Thread

they're warm, therefore a fake one wouldn't be attractive.

Your cat would make you pay dearly for such deception.

Here's the full "conversation". They suggest leaving both on then plugging the ADSL into the one the cat doesn't like

Re: Tales of Win Thread

What about standing it up (if possible)?
Or stick fins or some other objects to the surface so it's no longer flat?

Re: Tales of Win Thread

My new router is standing up.

I also changed the cat.

Even rig haggis is quite nice. Black puddings are always always nasty!

Did you put the old one down or did you just give it to the RSPCA?

Black Pudding rules.

Especially steamed with boiled potatoes and mushy peas.
