Today [14.2¾]

I wish I had the choice, I think there are some who rent the lines from BT, don't think many though, but if anything goes wrong it still has to go through BT so I might as well stick with them rather than a third party.

My nephew has just given up on BT and gone to Virgin.

That's OK if you're in an area where you can get it, my coastal village only has BT Wholesale in the Exchange and there's no chance of us ever getting fibre, so it's down to the old copper phone lines.

Yea. I guess that's one of the downsides of living in the country.

Last thing I said to BT (a few years ago now) was what's my MAC Code

:roflmao:

Just an official reminder:

As most of you certainly remember, at midnight tonight the Northern Hemisphere switches to Universal Summer Weight. Please do not forget to turn your scales back 10 kilos or 22 pounds.

For those living in the Southern Hemisphere, remember you'll switch tonight back to Normal Weight.

 

[z3r010]

will do

 

[Britton30]

Thanks Kari, we switched on Mar 21st at 2AM.

 

[Kari]

John, forgot you and your measurements: you'll have to turn the scales back 1.6 stone .

When the scales switch back later in the year, I'll be somewhere near the equator....will I need to put the full 22lbs back on?

I am sorry but that's how the Universal Summer Weight works, according to ISO. But again, the system has been developed for body types like yours or mine; in the winter we can easily hide an extra stone, stone and a half under loose garments whereas in the summer we need the reduction.

But it will be sunny when they change back and I'll be in my shorts by the pool

I know two Angies who could do better...

 

[Britton30]

The continuing pole reversal of Earth will negate the need of Universal summer Weight in a few years.

 

[Joan Archer]

I don't see the point of keep having to change, it upsets the animals and I see no benefit these days.

 

[Stephanie]

Today is a nice relaxing day (no work) being messing about with Max in the garden and going to do nothing but pop a couple of cans of Stella this evening .. so apologies if my spelling is not great later :roflmao:

 

[Arc]

Today I am wounded ... again, after a long time. Both the hands and the right leg are paining, but within tolerance, after taking pain killer.

 

[Bongo]

Wow Archie I hope you feel better soon. what did you do(Motor bike again)?

Me neither. It upsets my sleep patterns for a couple of weeks.

I cut the grass earlier. First time this year, That was hard work.

What's up Archie? hope you are better soon.

:roflmao:
I need not to mention.

What's up Archie? hope you are better soon.

Nothing very serious ... some minor wounds only. No need to take a rest. Within a few days all will be mended.

It is problematic to change trousers, though!

I was always falling off mine. That's why I gave it up. Cars are much safer but not so much fun.

 

[Arc]

I dont have a car. Three reasons behind it are ..... worst roads, excess traffic, and too big for a single person.

 

[Britton30]

Be careful out there Archie pal! At least in a car you are more visible. Here in the US people tend not to notice 2 wheel vehicles and don't realize they go as fast as cars.
