  • Hey up, fella.

    It was interesting on the whole, although some of the compulsory Philosophy options in the first year was rather dry. I still have nightmares about trying to decipher meaning from Principia Mathematica at four in the morning totally wired on Pro Plus and diet coke before an exam.

    It was a very good skive for 3 years (never had more than 8 hours of lectures/tutorials a week throughout) but at the end of it I still wasn't any wiser as to what I wanted to do for a living. Drifted into the civil service after a bit of bumming around.

    On the whole, if I had my time over, I'd do something more vocational.
    You can probably reset my password on there any time soon. Getting bored and have accomplished a lot of the backlog over the past week.
    Oh yes? What happened then? Let me guess, someone got pissed off with another person spamming? Or someone disenfranchised with a decision Eds made to punish someone for spamming?
    More like South Australia's Ian Bell.

    Imagine if Bell had averaged 45 in this most recent Ashes and then people started naming him in their World XI. People naming Ferguson in Australia's Test team is the equivalent of that, pretty much.
    Yeah. Roof is generally fixed. Needs a bit of plaster slopped on. I've been doing a fair bit of plastering recently - with erratic results.
    Unless Tool has "flipped out" and disembowled himself with a pair of secateurs, I'm not overly interested. Anyway, I have stuff (mainly writing, but also some renovations) to do before I would even consider it. Haha. Marto. What a prat.
    Ah yeah. There's the good bits. The sub-forums and some of the people, but the main pages are so overwhelmed by the egos of the same 2 or 3 people that pretty much anything you can see without being a member is total ****e.
    I did just have a look, which is interesting as last time I went there I couldn't see a thing. Which was good. Even clicking on a single thread reminds me of the futility of it all. Which is a shame.
    He was on ignore, but I can't resist reading a direct reply to a post I've made; even if there's a kind of car-crash inevitability that it will be a load of bile. And in what did I demolish Victoria?
    I did 3 years of university at Warwick and another 3 in Southampton. NZ is my home though, would only go back to the UK if the missus forced me to, and then only for a holiday.

    The inanimate object of the week is the Hole Punch if that's any help. Not only can it give you a handy pair of holes to let you put your paper in a folder, but if you punch holes all the way round a piece of paper, then you are left with an exceptional art work. Its even better if you do that to an existing artwork, say a Monet or a Jackson Pollock. Try it yourself, a Hole Punch.

    Not only that, but once you've attempted this a few times, especially with coloured artworks, you will have a handy amount of confetti for the next wedding you attend. N.B. make sure that you remove confetti from Hole Punch before throwing. Brides do not take kindly to being hit with Hole Punches on their Big Day. Thus spake the voice of experience.
    I struggle to work this technology lark; though its still good to know that if needs must, I can always find a good safe touch. Surprised to hear I'm still being allowed to play actually. Thought I'd have effectively gone dormant. How are the mighty Spartans doing in the new season?

    I have lived in the UK for various phases of my life. I met my other half in the UK, and she's a Pom. I went to university in the UK, I've lived in Essex, Hampshire and the West Midlands.
