11:59.13 | LeedsHK | evening all |
12:00.49 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: Merry Christmas |
12:01.03 | LeedsHK | can I confirm that the big news from the UK this week is that there was a (largely) bloodless coup by a dour Scotsman, there wasn't enough rain to stop Tim Henman being knocked out of Wimbledon again, and someone tried to blow the centre of London into lots of very small pieces? |
12:01.14 | LeedsHK | dick_turpin: it's National Day, not Christmas |
12:01.34 | dick_turpin | I was taking the pee ;-) |
12:02.34 | LeedsHK | it is a holiday weekend here - 10 years since the handover |
12:03.17 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: I know I mentioned it to you yesterday |
12:04.06 | LeedsHK | you really think I can remember yesterday? |
12:04.56 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: Having communicated with you for some time now I'm surprised you can remember the last hour :-P |
12:05.22 | LeedsHK | oh, and the iPhone was the top headline in one of the Chinese papers here yesterday |
12:08.29 | LeedsHK | oh, and biblical-class flooding... did I miss anything? |
12:14.10 | LeedsHK | hmm... I appear to be taking 5-7 women to the cinema tomorrow afternoon |
12:16.12 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: I hate you |
12:16.48 | rhowe | LeedsHK: You missed a news story |
12:18.08 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: Go on |
12:18.37 | LeedsHK | mmm... noodles |
12:18.53 | LeedsHK | rhowe: what did I miss? |
12:19.06 | rhowe | LeedsHK: I have a metallica ticket for their Wembley gig |
12:19.38 | LeedsHK | that is big news, yes |
12:19.45 | LeedsHK | also, the Spice Girls |
12:19.53 | rhowe | I'm not sure they're supporting |
12:23.34 | dick_turpin | did you see the who har about them miming? |
12:35.41 | tripitaka | no, but I saw their hoo hoos in the paper |
12:37.14 | dick_turpin | Theres some gismo that makes your voice sound perfect and can be used live, I must get one. Dick Turpin live at Glastonbury :-D |
12:39.55 | gw280 | wibble |
12:40.02 | gw280 | I'm at Crewe, apparently |
12:40.21 | dick_turpin | gw280: Not far from me then |
12:40.37 | gw280 | heh |
12:41.08 | gw280 | I want faster tinternet |
12:42.28 | dick_turpin | gw get a shorter bit of string between the bake bean tins :-) |
12:49.15 | LeedsHK | time to go bowling... |
12:50.20 | dick_turpin | LeedsHK: I hope on your own? my day has been bad enough to know you are handling your balls with a bevy of beauties would really upset me ;-) |

15:55.47 | goibhni1 | shit that seadragon/photosynth stuff is impressive |
16:01.43 | rhowe | hey, is anyone near chinatown? |
16:03.40 | [Clive] | Not presently |
16:03.42 | [Clive] | alas |
16:04.04 | [Clive] | My favourite restaurants are near there |
16:04.47 | [Clive] | New World and melati |
16:09.26 | rhowe | New World is kinda pricey |
16:09.38 | rhowe | but they do have dim sum trolleys, which redeems them somewhat |
16:10.22 | [Clive] | My favourite dish is chilli and garlic crabs |
16:11.27 | rhowe | mm, crabs |
16:11.29 | boudiccas | [Clive]; sounds painful |
16:11.41 | [Clive] | Nah |
16:11.50 | [Clive] | I like crustaceans |
16:15.01 | boudiccas | i reckon the best crabs that i've ever tasted were/are Cromer crabs from the town of the same name in North Norfolk |
16:15.13 | [Clive] | The melay/indonesian cuisine at melati is nice too |
16:15.27 | *** join/#gllug AnneC (n=AnneC@cmarfw01.marlow.spinvox.com) [NETSPLIT VICTIM] |
16:15.35 | [Clive] | Yeah Cromer crabs are lovely |
16:15.51 | boudiccas | you've had some! wonderful :) |
16:15.59 | [Clive] | It's sad that the Sunday fish stalls outside pubs have gone |
16:16.28 | [Clive] | I used to buy crabs regularly for sunday tea |
16:16.50 | [Clive] | my dad used to prepare the insides |
16:17.12 | boudiccas | there used to be a fish stall on Norwich market that used to sell tasters of various fish and whelks and stuff on a Saturday morning. me and my kids used to love going down there before doing the shopping |
16:17.12 | [Clive] | and I cracked the claws and legs to get the white meat |
16:17.34 | [Clive] | I don't like whelks and winkles |
16:18.02 | boudiccas | i tried whelks once, never again. they're yuk. i used to like mackarel with salt and vinegar |
16:18.06 | [Clive] | But if I go to the seaside I always have a punnet of prawns on the piers |
16:18.41 | [Clive] | and I love satay prawns |

16:19.45 | [Clive] | i like lobster too |
16:20.29 | boudiccas | don't like satay stuff, don't really like 'cooked' peanuts |
16:20.55 | [Clive] | I don't much like uncooked ones |
16:21.06 | [Clive] | i love pickled walnuts |
16:21.07 | boudiccas | they're nice salted :) |
16:21.14 | boudiccas | yes, i agree |
16:21.46 | [Clive] | Other than that I don't really eat nuts |
16:22.51 | [Clive] | There's no fishmongers here anymore |
16:22.51 | boudiccas | i like sweet chestnuts, plain and roasted |
16:23.13 | [Clive] | Mmmm I like em roasted with salt |
16:23.35 | [Clive] | Like you get in bags in the west end |
16:23.55 | boudiccas | i don't know of one at all in Maidstone, in fact i don't remember seeing any fish here except in tins at the supermarket or swimming in the river |
16:24.16 | boudiccas | never had them with salt, must try them sometime |
16:24.24 | [Clive] | there's not one in crayford, bexleyheath, or dartford |
16:24.39 | [Clive] | You can get dressed crab at Sainsburies |
16:25.27 | boudiccas | its a shame really, they were always interesting places to browse at and ask questions when i was a kid |
16:25.57 | [Clive] | i don't think I could dress a crab actually |
16:26.00 | [Clive] | I wish I'd learned |
16:26.21 | boudiccas | can you? never seen it or heard of it there. i could only do it after a quick phone call to my mum asking how to do it :) |
16:27.09 | [Clive] | Sainsburies do dressed cromer crabs |
16:27.20 | [Clive] | around 3.20 quid |
16:27.52 | boudiccas | would be a nice treat :) i might do that when my boat comes in |
16:28.14 | [Clive] | Tecos used to do lobster thermidor in the expensive food range |
16:28.59 | boudiccas | never had lobster thermidor [to the best of my knowledge] |
16:29.12 | boudiccas | i've got fish for tea! :) |
16:29.15 | [Clive] | I have exactly once |
16:29.32 | boudiccas | sardines over rice with a tomato sauce |
16:29.39 | [Clive] | I've got prawn satay |
16:29.44 | boudiccas | :) |
16:29.55 | [Clive] | and some spring rolls |
16:30.11 | boudiccas | has the security situation in London calmed down somewhat now? |
16:30.22 | [Clive] | I doubt it |
16:30.41 | [Clive] | There's two big events in London tomorrow |
16:30.47 | [Clive] | Gay Pride in Soho |
16:30.57 | [Clive] | and the Diana memorial concert |
16:30.59 | boudiccas | i.e. transport flowing normally and people able to go about their normal business |
16:31.11 | [Clive] | I'm not working |
16:31.18 | boudiccas | and the following sunday its the tour de france |
16:31.43 | [Clive] | Last news cast said those areas were cordoned off |
16:31.56 | boudiccas | ah, still a hiatus then |
16:32.29 | [Clive] | You'd expect a high security level anyway |
16:33.07 | boudiccas | its been high for over a year now |
16:33.16 | [Clive] | Pride always has a high police prescence |
16:33.22 | boudiccas | and i don't see it lessening in the near future |
16:33.49 | [Clive] | and security will be very tight tomorrow for the Diana Concert as the 2 princes will be there |
16:34.02 | [Clive] | and I think the new PM too |
16:34.12 | boudiccas | sounds like apop group 'the 2 princes' :) |
16:34.21 | [Clive] | Lol |
16:35.00 | boudiccas | anyways, tea time :) nice to chat with you, catch you later |
16:35.15 | [Clive] | have a good tea |

20:31.34 | boudiccas | clive-h; they're outline-type programs, where you store information in a tree-like format |
20:31.55 | boudiccas | clive-h; http://notecase.sourceforge.net/index.html ... if you're interested |
20:32.18 | clive-h | Oh I see |
20:32.51 | boudiccas | I find them very useful for storing info rather than using post-it notes :) |
20:33.04 | clive-h | I've used stuff like that under DOS |

20:41.08 | morsing | In my bedroom |
20:41.14 | morsing | Theyŕ're big as well |
20:41.45 | morsing | I can't figure is out but I can hear them at night |
20:41.45 | boudiccas | don't they hatch from eggs? |
20:42.02 | boudiccas | perhaps they fly in when the windows are open |
20:42.05 | morsing | Well, maybe, theyy're everywhere when I get home from work |
20:42.15 | morsing | Nope, they're identical |
20:42.18 | morsing | From the same batch |
20:42.34 | morsing | And I can hear them behind the wall |
20:43.00 | boudiccas | i've found some moths flying in through the boiler vent during the evening as the boiler is off for the summer |
20:43.35 | boudiccas | i'd be inclined to get a can of 'Raid' and spray them |
20:45.38 | clive-h | I once came home to find a bunch of wasps that had nested in the wall over winter |
20:54.54 | morsing | boudiccas: Well, yes, but they have/are all hatching somewhere |
20:54.56 | morsing | ? |
20:58.26 | boudiccas | presumably in the wall, so if you keep spraying them when you see them hopefully you'll get them before they mature into adults and lay their eggs |
