  1. At school. We werent an item there, but several years later after finding friends reunited she emailed me. Been married almost a year now.
  2. Oh bugger. I am coming to blackpool this wekend coming. Was looking forward to a shifty special. Good luck with your new venture mate
  3. Heroes is great. I have seen the first 21 episodes and think its much better then lost now
  4. I would say that it's around the same as the fabia vrs for fuel consumption, depending on how you drive it. I think it would be easier to get more out of the honda if you decided to drive conservatively. I think the tank is slightly bigger as I get around 50 miles extra per tank.
  5. I had my neighbour knock the door in a rage with a translator telling me he had a contract that said he could park outside his house. I told him to bugger off and read the rules on parking. I did offer to never park outside if he paid my car tax from now on. He didnt want to so I park outside his house first if theres no room outside mine. I cant believe the amount of people who think they have a right to park outside their own house. I would find some information off the internet that says that no one has the right to park outside their house then I would draft a letter explaining that someone in the neighbourhood thinks its ok to put ****ty letters through peoples doors and I would post that and the information from the net through every letter box, also apologising that you have had to put it through every door because the person didnt have the commmon curtoesy to talk to you face to face and you dont know who it is.
  6. I love my honda civic. Just so nice to drive around in and so comfortable. Also nice and quick and very smooth/quiet for a diesel.
  7. theres paranoid and then theres crazy. Do you have any resources left to actually use the pc at a reasonable speed. All you need is windows defender and a decent virus scanner like nod32 and job's done. Sounds to me like you have some sort of nasty malware/spyware on your machine. I have seen the issue with not being able to bring up task manager before on someones machine. It was pretty naffed once it got to that point. I would click on start -> run then type in msconfig I would then go to the startup tab and disable near enough everything you have in there especially if its named funny or points to a directory you are unaware of. Give it a reboot and see if your task manager works by pressing ctrl+shift+esc. If it does then backup your documents and pics, mp3s etc, then wipe the thing and re-install xp fresh.
  8. games will work on all regions as far as I am aware and any hdtv will be compatible with ntsc games. If you dont have a hdtv then theres no point buying the console anyway. Oh and sony just get better and better and annoying the consumer. I am not buying one as theres no reason to. Better of with an xbox 360
  9. I would be completely honest and truthfull throughout, giving the steps you took to try and get the issue resolved, before you were meant to be on call, and also that you persistently tried to log in etc. Also that you followed the correct escalation procedure from your end and failings of other people in the chain should not be passed down to you. I think you tok reasonable action. Even the fact you tested it on friday before which should have given them enough time to resolve the issue. You cant do much more then that imo, so if they do persue you for a discaplinery, I would start looking around for a new employer.
  10. I am switching to virgin soon, after having sky for a year. I must admit that sky + is great, but virgin have better deals and especially for High def content. If they do lose sky one, two, three then I wont be bothered as I only watch lost and I can get the high def lost episode off the net two days before they broadcast it. No loss to me whatso-ever but a big loss to sky as This is the nail in the coffin for their service. Money grabbning inbreds
  11. Well the fabia vrs is better then the octavia VRS. Nice.
  12. Its the same old same old with the government. "we need more money so lets increase taxes" They know they cant increase taxes on non essential items as people will just stop using them, so they tax the things that most people cant go about their day to day lives without. this way they can stick as much tax as they like on that particular thing and this generates their money so they can build stupid useless domes and pay out billions for the olympics even though they will never see that money back. The government will do nothing about public transport because if they did something and made it a viable alternative they wouldnt be able to slap taxes here there and everywhere on ther road users to line their pockets.
