Found the ideal gift for Slasher this Christmas, in case anyone is planning to give him one (will need a bigger size, however, and no, not because he has big hands:

Sometimes I really miss having 'like' button

Well, this thread has taken an interesting turn Facially, I stopped shaving even before could grow a beard - as an 18 yo straight out of National Service. I still cannot understand why anyone would put a potentially lethal blade to their throat so early in the morning. Am I more aggressive, manly, y...

I have a lot of interaction on pet sites (dogs, actually) as part of my business, and someone recommended this - The Worlds Smallest and Lightest GPS Tracker: m When I went to the site one of those annoying 'chat boxes' popped up, so doing my best Capetonian impersonation I thought I'd have some fun...

A SMALL town in Spain has been left a little red-faced after their annual culinary festival was advertised as something a little more X-rated. Festival organisers from town of As Pontes had unveiled a new website to coincide with the lead up to the event in which townsfolk celebrate a leafy green ve...

And another dog rescue story, this time a Staffie that was rescued from the pound a year ago leads rescuers to her 82 year-old owner: An English Staffy named Kiara has been hailed a hero after she led rescuers to an 84-year-old man lost at Colo in Sydney's north-west.

And local people rally together to rescue a dog belonging to a homeless man: DETERMINED locals refusing to give up when the experts abandoned their bid to rescue homeless man’s dog have been rewarded, digging the pooch out of a wombat burrow last night.

I have to ask "what would a Welshman know about English? It's not like they speak it there, or anything".

Of course you do know that everything you see on TV has been edited to make the point the producer want to make, and most truth ends up on the editing room floor

?..I assert that US Starbucks dark roast is the best coffee you're going to find out there on the road, anywhere in the world. And refills are free once you work the system. Any establishment that has to offer sickly sweet flavoured syrups to mask the true underlying taste of their coffee cannot be...

I agree with these posts: Henry, I like Alison and don't like it when you are rude to her. She is very patient with you and deserves a lot more respect than you show her. Seems to me it's a lot of attention seeking, like a naughty child. Does you no credit. Well Henry sad to say but IMHO you seem to...

Appears to be a very practical option to a problem apparently unique to HC

The Rain, The Park and Other Things by the Cowsills, really for the title track. I was a romantic back then

Next album was 'In a Gadda-da-Vida' by Iron Butterfly, with the full 17 min+ version taking up the full B-side of the album. That was a while back

It certainly was a great race - well worth watching. Some overtaking in areas that have previously been deemed as follow-the-leader sections

At least the auto shut-off valves worked as soon as was WoW Pilots - can't they ever get the pre-landing checklist right

Sprint Rubbish. They might not play it but they know who the Wallaby's are and Rugby Union is. And regardless they will still not bother to go and watch. On the TV news the other night they showed a small segment interviewing people in London about this tournament. It was amazing to me that they sh...

Never smoked it, never had the urge to "experiment", but from working with people I can agree with this quote from a schoolteacher: “I hate pot. I hate it even more than hard drugs. I’ve taught high school for 25 years and I hate what marijuana does to my students. It goes beyond missing h...

Probably the first half hour after our first son was born - difficult birth, needing to be C section at midnight on Easter Sunday. I felt amazing.

Now on the other hand, if you were asking about the finest 3 minutes ...
