| 05:52.52 | Leeds | pong |
| 05:52.57 | Leeds | just got in |
| 05:53.09 | morsing | Hey hey - it's Leeds! |
| 05:53.16 | morsing | How are you? In where - work? |
| 06:08.09 | morsing | Richard? |
| 06:15.27 | Leeds | home |
| 06:15.41 | morsing | Ahh... How Jasmine? |
| 06:16.48 | Leeds | I'm not talking to her at the moment |
| 06:17.08 | morsing | Is she talking to you? If so, that's very rude Richard! |
| 06:18.59 | Leeds | she is talking to me, and I am blocking/ignoring her for a week or two |
| 06:20.41 | morsing | Nice |
| 06:21.49 | Leeds | had a row with her last night, decided I've had enough of her for a bit |
| 06:24.34 | morsing | Nice - Vicky's one holiday in Spain for a week |
| 06:24.37 | Leeds | frankly, she's an idiot |
| 06:24.44 | morsing | Ha ha :D |
| 06:25.37 | Leeds | have you spoken to Vicky yet? |
| 06:26.39 | morsing | No - she's on holiday |
| 06:27.05 | Leeds | you might want to get around to that 'voice communication' thing at some point... |
| 06:27.30 | morsing | Yeah - |
| 06:27.45 | morsing | Still looking for something interesting to do on a first date |
| 06:27.59 | morsing | Take her to SantaPod? |
| 06:28.35 | Leeds | wtf is santapod? |
| 06:28.54 | Leeds | and don't obsess over it - the important thing is that you're there with her, not what you do |
| 06:29.03 | morsing | Leeds: ?!?!?!??!!?! |
| 06:29.17 | morsing | Leeds: You're a philistine!!!! |
| 06:29.47 | morsing | Leeds: Well - me meeting someone for dinner means 2 hours of quiet-ness and no chance of meeting up again |
| 06:29.54 | morsing | http://www.santapod.com/ |
| 06:29.57 | Leeds | why does it mean that? |
| 06:30.13 | morsing | Because I can't talk to people I haven't known for at least 6 months |
| 06:30.28 | Leeds | then you're screwed - get over it |
| 06:30.33 | morsing | I know |
| 06:30.40 | Leeds | do you have any particular reason to believe she might enjoy "the fastest and loudest motorsport on earth"? |
| 06:30.56 | morsing | Yes - anyone would enjoy that |
| 06:31.06 | Leeds | oh, you are so very very screwed |
| 06:31.32 | morsing | Do you not know me by now Richard? You *know* I'm a quiet not very talkative person when I first meet people |
| 06:31.43 | Leeds | seriously, start with a drink, a coffee, a dinner |
| 06:32.00 | Leeds | do *not* suggest that you meet up and go to a drag racing event out of town |
| 06:32.02 | morsing | Ok, start with 11 drinks quickly, then dinner |
| 06:32.06 | Leeds | I cannot believe I just wrote that |
| 06:32.28 | morsing | It's not going to help me though. I have nothing to talk to her about |
| 06:33.09 | Leeds | a) find something |
| 06:33.15 | Leeds | b) let her talk - become a listener |
| 06:33.26 | Leeds | c) talk *to each other* - have a conversation |
| 06:34.06 | morsing | Please don't make it sound easy. I'm not 15 and this has been a life-long problem for me! |
| 06:34.16 | Leeds | it was a lifelong problem for me |
| 06:35.14 | Leeds | serious point - I now talk too much, and have to force myself to shut up and listen sometimes... let her talk |
| 06:35.34 | morsing | I still think something other than the dinner-kliche would be good. I.e. Do something *first*, then dinner. |
| 06:36.03 | Leeds | all you need is an excuse to spend some time together |
| 06:36.07 | Leeds | that's the goal |
| 06:37.01 | morsing | We don't need an excuse for that - we both want to meet up - doesn't really matter if it's to go shopping or paint her lounge... |
| 06:37.37 | Leeds | painting her lounge sounds like a much better idea than going to a drag race |
| 06:40.00 | morsing | Or dinner |
| 06:40.02 | morsing | http://www.morsing.cc/billed.php?STED=Volvo_240GLT |
| 06:41.33 | Leeds | yeah... don't show her that either |
| 06:41.46 | morsing | Why not? |
| 06:41.55 | morsing | She knows that already... |
| 06:42.04 | Leeds | oops |
| 06:42.12 | Leeds | "My other car is a crappy Volvo" |
| 06:42.13 | morsing | ooops what?!??! |
| 06:42.31 | morsing | It's not a crappy Volvo and she likes Volvo's as well. |
| 06:42.41 | morsing | No point in even meeting up if she doesn't... |
| 06:43.32 | morsing | I was emailing with someone in May for a while and after she found out I had a Volvo she stopped responding. Which means it would never have worked out between us anyway... |
| 06:45.13 | Leeds | see, I would say that would suggest you're going to be single for a long long time - but then I've been single for a long long time, so my advice probably isn't worth much |
| 06:45.26 | Leeds | on the other hand, I am at least capable of taking a lady out for dinner... |
| 06:47.54 | morsing | Vicky said: |
| 06:47.55 | morsing | Nothing wrong with volvos. My dad has had two that I can remember, both solid cars whcih go on forever. He had an accidnet in one (not his fault - a prat driving too fast down a hill and round a corner in icy conditions). The other car was totalled but dad had barely a dent in the front wing!! |
| 06:48.21 | morsing | Leeds: Which part exactly would suggest that? |
| 06:48.47 | morsing | I'm not even going to bother talking someone out for dinner who can't accept me because I drive a Volvo |
| 06:48.53 | morsing | That's the way it is! |
| 06:49.00 | morsing | taking |
| 06:49.35 | Leeds | if you care more about your car... if you pre-judge like that |
| 06:50.38 | morsing | I don't care more about my car - you're getting it completely wrong. A woman who only cares about what car I drive and not me, is an idiot and I'm not going to waste time on her because it's not ever going to work out car or not. |
| 06:50.57 | morsing | It's called being superficial |
| 06:51.02 | Leeds | <morsing> It's not a crappy Volvo and she likes Volvo's as well. |
| 06:51.02 | Leeds | <morsing> No point in even meeting up if she doesn't... |
| 06:51.13 | Leeds | no point in meeting someone who doesn't like Volvos? |
| 06:51.13 | morsing | Leeds: You suck |
| 06:54.30 | Leeds | not particularly, no |
| 06:55.02 | Leeds | nice, Doris is using Firefox :-) |
| 06:55.11 | Leeds | because choice of browser is much more important than choice of car... |
| 07:00.44 | morsing | Who pick an IRC nick "Hun" anyway... You just end up saying "Hey Hun" everytime she joins... |
| 07:00.50 | morsing | s/pick/picks/ |
| 07:12.56 | Leeds | oh, and she seems to agree with my favoured model of camera too |
| 07:13.08 | morsing | Leeds: Marry her |
| 07:14.36 | morsing | Ok, breakfast time |
| 07:16.11 | Leeds | what does Vicky do? |
| 07:49.22 | morsing | Medical secretary or so |
| 07:50.09 | morsing | At the hospital |
| 07:51.18 | Leeds | ah yes, you said |
| 07:52.24 | morsing | Did I? |
| 07:54.34 | Leeds | I believe so, yes |
| 07:54.49 | morsing | You approve of that then? |
| 07:55.12 | Leeds | yes |
| 08:09.47 | morsing | Leeds: What's your name? |
| 08:10.41 | Leeds | Yonah |
| 08:10.56 | morsing | Not Jonas? |
| 08:11.16 | morsing | The guy with the whale? |
| 08:11.34 | Leeds | yes, the guy with the whale |
| 08:14.23 | Leeds | (actually, I'm serious about that - that is my name, and it does refer to the guy with the whale) |
| 08:41.17 | morsing | The guy with the whale is called Jonas |
| 08:43.05 | Leeds | Jonah in English, Yonah in Hebrew |
| 08:55.29 | morsing | Jonas in Danish |
| 08:57.37 | Leeds | the original story is written in Hebrew - I read it a couple of weeks ago |
| 09:03.47 | morsing | Leeds: You know how a laptop's battery status is read? |
| 09:04.37 | morsing | Reason I'm asking is that I've upgraded to a higher capacity battery and I'm just wondering if the % and minutes remaining will still be accurate (not that it was before) |

| 09:05.37 | aguaithefreak | morsing! |
| 09:07.58 | Leeds | the % should come from the battery, the time remaining is usually calculated in software AFAIK |
| 09:11.56 | morsing | Ok |
| 09:12.38 | morsing | Can I get ID data from the battery? I.e. brand and capacity? |
| 09:13.52 | Leeds | probably |
| 09:14.03 | Leeds | capacity, very likely... brand, probably |
| 09:17.25 | morsing | http://www.zimmer.co.uk/ctl?template=PC&op=global&action=1&id=9154 |

| 09:24.46 | morsing | Yonah? |
| 09:48.12 | morsing | *gnfnff* |

| 10:06.22 | morsing | LEEDS!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| 10:06.29 | morsing | Any soldering experts here? |
| 10:13.56 | gregj | what does 'go on, feel/fill your boots' mean ? |
| 10:17.23 | morsing | gregj: It means "Yes, just do it - I'm happy with it" |
| 10:17.32 | morsing | "Fill your boots" |
| 10:17.37 | morsing | It's a northern thing |
| 10:17.56 | morsing | gregj: You any good at soldering? |
| 10:18.48 | gregj | is it, you're foreginer, I asked local folks |
| 10:18.49 | gregj | :P |
| 10:18.53 | gregj | morsing: yes, I am, why |
| 10:19.08 | morsing | :( |
| 10:19.22 | morsing | I'm only a foreigner for another few months |
| 10:19.42 | morsing | Does this look difficult: |
| 10:19.42 | morsing | http://www.vcoa.org/700-900-faq/ElectricalStarting.html#AlternatorGettingWeakRegulatorBrushReplacement |
| 10:21.46 | gregj | good for you, I applied for a remote job, whihc would mean, I could go bakck to .pl |
| 10:24.18 | morsing | ???!?! |
| 10:24.47 | gregj | morsing: depends on how big are the connectors you have to solder to |
| 10:24.56 | morsing | Small-ish |
| 10:25.14 | morsing | But one of the guys says I need a 250W gun and I don't have that |
| 10:25.30 | gregj | if he said you need 250W gun, it is not that small |
| 10:26.08 | gregj | I have 75W one, transformer one. And it is enough to do small and medium size ones |
| 10:27.24 | morsing | The wire is maybe 1mm in diameter |
| 10:28.00 | morsing | polyunix! |
| 10:28.01 | gregj | that would be enough |
| 10:28.03 | morsing | Ok |
| 10:28.28 | polyunix | morning all |
| 10:28.47 | gregj | clear the wire, clear the spot, solder them a bit, and than solder toughether |
| 10:28.49 | gregj | and it should be alright |
| 10:28.55 | morsing | Ok |
| 10:29.53 | morsing | Oh... Actually it's not wire, it's a small rod and it's not even .5mm thick |
| 10:30.30 | gregj | I see |
| 10:31.35 | gregj | be carefull than not to bend it, or something |
| 10:42.39 | antiphase | I'd use a gas torch to solder big lumps of copper like that |
| 10:42.52 | antiphase | Soldering irons aren't really up to it without producing poor results |
| 10:43.22 | gregj | he said the wire is smallis |

| 11:56.39 | secretlondon | morsing! |
| 11:57.29 | secretlondon | I don't actually know what I'm looking at - and what's supposed to be there |
| 11:57.35 | secretlondon | you mean the missing nobs? |
| 11:59.32 | morsing | secretlondon: No - the spots |
| 11:59.51 | morsing | They look like over-heated metal or something |
| 12:00.10 | secretlondon | I am guessing this is a car bit |
| 12:00.23 | secretlondon | I don't have a car and don't know how they work.. |

| 12:11.03 | morsing | wethrin: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3909085.stm |
| 12:11.10 | wethrin | explain? |
| 12:11.41 | morsing | wethrin: The insert on the main sign says "Welcome to Europe's happiest town"! |
| 12:12.04 | morsing | Maybe that's why I'm so unhappy? Because I left? |
| 12:12.12 | wethrin | drink more tea! |
| 12:12.15 | morsing | :) |
| 12:12.22 | morsing | Tea is vile |
| 12:12.24 | wethrin | ahh :) |
| 12:12.27 | wethrin | Rubbish! |
| 12:13.17 | morsing | wethrin: Sorry, but that place is the most miserable place in Europe. Leaving is the best thing I've ever done |
| 12:13.26 | wethrin | ah :-) |
| 12:13.28 | wethrin | heh |
| 12:14.03 | morsing | wethrin: How are you today? |
| 12:14.07 | wethrin | tired |
| 12:15.24 | secretlondon | I suspect morsing hasn't been to Bradford, that's easily the worst place in europe |
| 12:15.31 | Leeds | secretlondon: nonsense! |
| 12:15.43 | wethrin | I've been to Leeds/Bradford airport. Does that count? |
| 12:15.46 | secretlondon | Leeds: were you born there? |
| 12:15.54 | wethrin | And clearly you've never been to Middlesbrough |
| 12:16.00 | Leeds | there's the film museum... the alhamba... good curry... and a nice road to Leeds so you can leave after going to the museum and having a curry |
| 12:16.10 | Leeds | secretlondon: no, strangely enough I was born in Leeds |
| 12:16.11 | secretlondon | Leeds: that's tourist stuff |
| 12:16.20 | morsing | secretlondon: Eermmm... No |
| 12:16.22 | wethrin | Curry isn't tourist stuff! |
| 12:16.35 | morsing | secretlondon: I don't mean worst - I mean miserable |
| 12:16.49 | secretlondon | Leeds: living in bradford is living amongst a swell of bnp sympathisers - we didn't eat curry as children as it was "paki stuff" |
| 12:18.11 | Leeds | My dad has always done a lot of work with Pakistanis in Bradford |
| 12:18.12 | morsing | wethrin: Sorry I upset you earlier :( |
| 12:18.27 | secretlondon | I got involved in politics through the anl |
| 12:18.49 | secretlondon | my family are still racist, small minded and working in call centres |
| 12:19.04 | wethrin | morsing: when? |

| 12:19.46 | xteddy | :> |
| 12:19.54 | wethrin | secretlondon: DO they read the Daily Mail? |
| 12:20.06 | Leeds | I went to one or two events with the anl - I generally wasn't there with them, but they were also there |
| 12:20.15 | secretlondon | wethrin: my father reads the telegraph, my brother just watches sky news |
| 12:20.31 | wethrin | eh, the Torygraph's not that bad, really |
| 12:20.35 | secretlondon | I've not bene back since 1993 |
| 12:21.07 | wethrin | Times has gone downhill since Murdoch took over. And even more so since it went tabloid |
| 12:21.35 | Leeds | secretlondon: then I've been to Bradford a lot more recently than you anyway |
| 12:21.56 | morsing | Debian's dictionary don't know the word "Knackered" |
| 12:21.59 | secretlondon | you have to live there and have family there to realise the awfulness |
| 12:22.15 | secretlondon | I don't think eg students ever really mix with the locals |
| 12:22.38 | wethrin | that's true of a lot of places, though |
| 12:22.40 | secretlondon | the guardian and the independent are beginning to piss me off with their stupid lifestyle features |
| 12:23.09 | Leeds | I'm not suggesting for a moment that it's a particularly nice place :-) Just saying that there are one or two things which mean it probably isn't the worst place in Europe |
| 12:23.18 | antiphase | Don't read hippy papers then :) |
| 12:23.30 | wethrin | Guardian's commentisfree really riles me. People writing about things they *really* don't know anything about. Specially if there's anything technology-related |
| 12:23.39 | secretlondon | the indie has advertised anti-mobile phone mast talismans and encouraging people to buy houses in the north for investments, |
| 12:23.54 | wethrin | I thought house-buying was a Daily Mail special |
| 12:24.05 | secretlondon | wethrin: but the guardian has the "bad science" column which points out what crap they've bene publishing all week |
| 12:24.19 | secretlondon | no indie readers are encouraged to on one page |
| 12:24.22 | wethrin | Well, yes. But I can get that off the interweb. As I can do with the improbable.com stuff :) |
| 12:24.50 | wethrin | A few years ago the Grauniad certainly had very good jobs sections. I don't know what it's like now |
| 12:25.09 | secretlondon | I like the panic over HIPS which have apparently surpressed house prices as people are not rashly selling 4 bed houses (were they before? who are these people?) |
| 12:25.21 | secretlondon | the guardian is still good for jobs |
| 12:25.43 | secretlondon | and pensioners campaigning against inheritance tax (when they live in council housing) |
| 12:26.19 | secretlondon | Leeds: probably. I admit I haven't lived everywhere ;) |
| 12:26.25 | wethrin | many people aren't rashly selling any sort of houses :) |
| 12:26.50 | secretlondon | I read this stuff and wonder who the fuck these people are |
| 12:27.01 | goibhniu | morsing: Ringkobing is a great place ... I lived near there for a few months |
| 12:27.53 | wethrin | not the principle in general, just the threshold |
| 12:30.37 | secretlondon | the old ladies locally with their stickers against inheritance tax (from one of the tabloids) will never reach the threshold |
| 12:31.07 | wethrin | that's likely to be true |
| 12:31.26 | secretlondon | they've been co-opted into someone elses battle |
| 12:31.56 | wethrin | although.....are there still places in London that fall below the inheritance tax threshold? |
| 12:33.41 | goibhniu | morsing: sorry, I was confused ... I've only lived near Ringsted and Rudkobing |
| 12:34.10 | boudiccas | beer is good for confusion |
| 12:34.49 | secretlondon | beer is good generally |
| 12:35.18 | wethrin | beer++ |
| 12:35.37 | goibhniu | boudiccas: how's the brew? |
| 12:35.44 | boudiccas | anyone up for a pint this friday evening at the 'Society Rooms' in Maidstone? |

| 13:00.39 | Leeds | xteddy: hello |
| 13:00.39 | xteddy | :D |
| 13:00.45 | boudiccas | if you use snuff are you a /snuffler/?? |
| 13:01.39 | goibhniu | an insufflator? |
| 13:02.14 | boudiccas | i thought that was something that helped you take snuff!! |
| 13:02.47 | antiphase | Best off chucking it in the bin and buying 20 Bensons instead |
| 13:03.00 | goibhniu | "Formal etiquette dictates that women abstain from tobacco until at least fifty years of age." |
| 13:03.01 | boudiccas | its cheaper than cigarettes |
| 13:03.07 | boudiccas | lol |
| 13:03.21 | antiphase | If you're poor, you shouldn't be spending your money on non-essentials anyway ;) |
| 13:03.53 | boudiccas | true, but everyone deserves treats occasionaly |
| 13:04.01 | Leeds | and snuff is a treat? |
| 13:04.07 | boudiccas | to me yes |
| 13:04.19 | boudiccas | buying it is anyway |
| 13:04.42 | goibhniu | it looks much cooler than smoking too |
| 13:04.50 | Leeds | my grandfather takes it every now and again |
| 13:04.56 | goibhniu | and you can do it on airplanes |
| 13:05.01 | boudiccas | goibhniu; true :) |
| 13:05.21 | boudiccas | theres still quite a few snuffers around |
| 13:05.50 | morsing | goibhniu: Cool! |
| 13:08.50 | boudiccas | my palm m130 has just suddenly stopped working :( i'm going to recharge it and then try resetting it |
| 13:09.10 | morsing | boudiccas: What's for tea? |

| 13:14.08 | boudiccas | Leeds; no, it makes sense and doesn't sound too pompous. but it does sound slightly old-fashioned |
| 13:14.36 | Leeds | it's meant to sound old-fashioned - thanks :-) |

| 13:15.21 | boudiccas | Leeds; that i can't comment on, sorry :( |

| 13:17.29 | boudiccas | morsing; i had roughly translated it as 'liver paste' just from the look of itsname alone |
| 13:17.37 | boudiccas | *its name |
| 13:17.41 | morsing | Ok, |
| 13:17.46 | morsing | Pate is finer though |
| 13:17.52 | morsing | Not quite the same thing |
| 13:17.58 | boudiccas | so yours is the coarse cut then |
| 13:18.02 | morsing | Yes |
| 13:18.16 | morsing | I don't think pate is baked either? Postej is... |
| 13:18.28 | boudiccas | i don't think so either |

| 14:51.59 | boudiccas | ? |

| 14:52.27 | secretlondon | but the beer up your nose |
| 14:52.37 | secretlondon | for entertainment reasons |
| 14:52.44 | morsing | boudiccas: :) |
| 14:52.48 | boudiccas | it would taste horrible! |
| 14:53.03 | morsing | boudiccas: I've got a couple of duck breasts - you coming over? |
| 14:53.06 | secretlondon | it would depend on how fizzy it is |
| 14:53.21 | boudiccas | have you never laughed so much that what you were drinking came down your nose? its horrible |
| 14:53.40 | secretlondon | agreed |
| 14:54.55 | boudiccas | snuff is nearer, i don't have to get off my chair to get that |
| 14:55.34 | boudiccas | morsing; hey duck, we're not ignoring you, its just a quiet sunday afternoon |
| 14:55.59 | morsing | boudiccas: You ignore my invitation for tea... |
| 14:56.26 | boudiccas | i'm trying to write up my psychology notes onto my computer and i'm spending more time procrastinating than anything |
| 14:56.42 | secretlondon | i'm still in my pajamas.. |
| 14:56.48 | secretlondon | the queen of procrastination |
| 14:56.54 | morsing | secretlondon: Nice - pink? |
| 14:56.55 | boudiccas | i haven't ignored it, i'm still considering it |
| 14:57.01 | secretlondon | morsing - NO! |
| 14:57.05 | morsing | ?! |
| 14:57.23 | boudiccas | lol |
| 14:57.26 | morsing | ?! |
| 14:57.41 | secretlondon | I went to get a new phone at woolies - they only had pink ones in, so I went somewhere else |
| 14:57.59 | secretlondon | pink is far too stereotypically girly for me |
| 14:58.00 | Leeds | my flatmate has been talking about getting a new laptop - a pink Dell |
| 14:58.01 | morsing | secretlondon: When should I attempt to go to bed? |
| 14:58.11 | morsing | secretlondon: There is a reason for it |
| 14:58.29 | secretlondon | pink used to be a boys colour apprently |
| 14:58.38 | boudiccas | morsing; when you feel tired! but if your on nights, i always used to go to bed at about 1030 |
| 14:58.50 | boudiccas | after having a drink and a smoke or two |
| 14:59.00 | morsing | boudiccas: I have to be at work at 2am |
| 14:59.01 | secretlondon | so any "science" stories saying girl's brains are wired for pink are as bollocksy as you'd imagine |
| 14:59.24 | boudiccas | i would go to bed at about 1600 and get a few hours sleep until about 2100 |
| 14:59.43 | morsing | Ha ha :) There's no way I can go to sleep at 1600 |
| 14:59.51 | boudiccas | that will give you time to potter around and have a meal and slowly wake up and be menatally alery ready for work |
| 14:59.53 | secretlondon | my sleeping pattern is really screwed - but if you don't get some sleep before then you'll die later |
| 15:00.14 | morsing | I might be able to rest/sleep at around 2000 |
| 15:00.18 | boudiccas | secretlondon; i concur |
| 15:00.37 | boudiccas | and i also agree so as not to sound pompous |
| 15:00.51 | morsing | boudiccas: We know you better |
| 15:01.03 | boudiccas | better than what? |
| 15:01.17 | secretlondon | I was up all night the night before London Open House, and then drove myself to do a day's events. I was up for 20 hours and couldn't really take anything in |
| 15:01.35 | secretlondon | better thna to presume you are pomous |
| 15:01.44 | boudiccas | lol |
| 15:01.54 | morsing | secretlondon: I don't have to do work though |
| 15:02.04 | secretlondon | you are just "on call"? |

| 15:09.54 | secretlondon | indeed! |
| 15:10.35 | morsing | zzz |
| 15:10.40 | boudiccas | probably though because he's gone to bed |
| 15:10.48 | boudiccas | or is pretending he has |

| 19:12.09 | boudiccas | i've got them in several locations on my h/d so its perfectly possible that you'll end up with some doubles. my apologies if/when this happens |
| 19:13.12 | boudiccas | and its going to take some time to send over over a 100 of mp3s so you'll possibly get between 3-5 per day |
| 19:14.16 | secretlondon | thanks :) |

| 19:24.41 | boudiccas | andy hamilton, 'Old Harrys Game'?? |

| 19:29.12 | secretlondon | I have 3 series, dunno if there is more |
| 19:29.23 | boudiccas | thanks for solving the problem for me secretlondon |
| 19:29.28 | secretlondon | shuttle = amd shoe box |

| 19:29.38 | secretlondon | ah! |
| 19:29.46 | Armand | sorry, shoulda added "</sarcasm>" |

| 19:40.11 | secretlondon | and arrived! |
| 19:40.49 | boudiccas | enjoy listening to them |
| 19:41.08 | secretlondon | I will :) |
| 19:41.40 | secretlondon | I need to get a proper server machine though as my 80g mp3 drive is full |
| 19:42.31 | hali | currently playing, rather gay, music in the form of Joe Cocker - Everybody hurts |
| 19:42.34 | boudiccas | theres over a hundred of these goon show ones and i think theres somehwre about 1 gig of them in total [very roughly |
| 19:42.50 | boudiccas | ] |
| 19:43.10 | secretlondon | I just need to organise my computer resources better |
| 19:43.21 | secretlondon | and get some more IDE drives |
| 19:43.53 | hali | i may have two 200gb IDE drives left ofter in a couple of weeks |
| 19:44.04 | secretlondon | ooh! |
| 19:44.42 | hali | i need to rearrange my stuff a little so i can put new bigger drive in that pc |
| 19:45.36 | hali | got one 200gb spare already i think, the other has some of my por^Hmusic on it |
| 19:45.44 | secretlondon | I need to rebuild a server box from one of my old machines |
| 19:46.05 | secretlondon | the suns only take scsi things alas and I can't get big enough of those |
| 19:46.19 | hali | you don't need a full lenght IDE raid card do you? some promise thing |
| 19:46.31 | secretlondon | so it'll have to be some of the old durons |
| 19:46.46 | secretlondon | no - i don't see the point of wasting drives on raid for domestic use |
| 19:46.49 | hali | it's like 2ft long :) |
| 19:47.05 | hali | could be alright as a surfing board |
| 19:47.47 | boudiccas | put wheels on it and use it as a skate board |
| 19:47.47 | secretlondon | :P |
| 19:47.55 | hali | yeay! :) |

| 20:00.04 | Discordian | I like all the other members of the allium family though |
| 20:00.07 | hali | the way to halis heart is meat loaf |
| 20:00.17 | secretlondon | I hate his music |
| 20:00.54 | Discordian | Gah the chippy was closed tonight |
| 20:01.19 | secretlondon | we need an application where you cna put in the contents or your cupboard and fridge and it gives oyu recipes |
| 20:01.24 | hali | you brits should cut back on the chippy'ing |
| 20:01.30 | Armand | Never! |
| 20:01.36 | Discordian | I was gonna have a kebab |
| 20:01.41 | Discordian | They do those too |

| 20:02.42 | secretlondon | as I can get the cubed lamb here |
| 20:02.43 | Armand | I only eat something I can actually identify.. |
| 20:02.45 | secretlondon | and I have a suitable grill thing |
| 20:02.47 | hali | had some amazing shish in cafe lazez in soho once |
| 20:03.27 | Discordian | The local chippie does nice donners |
| 20:03.50 | hali | i've never even dared to go in to the local kebab take away |

| 20:13.53 | boudiccas | great :) |
| 20:15.51 | secretlondon | leeks seem to be either soup, or with cheese |
| 20:16.13 | secretlondon | I think it has to be cheese |
| 20:17.30 | secretlondon | and 5 here! |
| 20:18.07 | boudiccas | another one that i think transferred well from the tv screen to radio was 'Steptoe & Son' about the rag and bone merchants who were father and son living in the same house |
| 20:18.25 | boudiccas | i love listening to them too |
| 20:19.19 | Discordian | I've listened to Round the Horne on BBC7 occasionally |
| 20:19.29 | Discordian | and the HitchHiker's Guide |
| 20:19.55 | Discordian | and I should listen to the Dirk gently ones |
| 20:20.08 | boudiccas | monday night is the goon show at 1900 on bbc 7, tuesday is hancocks half hour, thursday is the Navy lark, and friday is dads army |
| 20:20.34 | Discordian | I've never heard the goon show |
| 20:20.38 | boudiccas | i would listen to the dirk gently ones except that i'm on the way to my evening class then |
| 20:20.42 | Discordian | or hancocks |
| 20:20.53 | boudiccas | all on BBC 7 at 1900 |
| 20:20.54 | Discordian | I remember the Navy Lark |
| 20:22.11 | secretlondon | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Goon_Show |
| 20:22.43 | Discordian | I'm aware of what it was, My dad was a big fan of the goons |
| 20:27.01 | Armand | Never heard of it.. |

| 21:09.21 | Armand | kewl |
| 21:09.58 | Discordian | Now garlic I do like |
| 21:10.28 | Armand | same, but not too much. |
| 21:10.35 | Armand | anti-social, much. :P |
| 21:10.55 | Discordian | I'm single |
| 21:11.41 | Armand | likewise, but it still ranks. :P |
| 21:12.02 | Discordian | Good for youi |
| 21:12.05 | Discordian | -i |
| 21:28.33 | secretlondon | ginger wine - it just looks lethal |
| 21:29.10 | wethrin | ooh |
| 21:29.14 | Discordian | never had that |
| 21:30.05 | secretlondon | a woman bought a bottle of it in front of me in a shop so I thought I'd try some |
| 21:30.23 | Armand | worst.. idea.. ever! |
| 21:30.32 | secretlondon | http://www.stonesgingerwine.com/ |
| 21:30.45 | wethrin | Some pubs serve it |
| 21:30.47 | secretlondon | it's brown and 13% |
| 21:30.57 | Discordian | now badger beer |
| 21:31.10 | Discordian | It's beer and flavoured with ginger |
| 21:31.16 | Discordian | That works well |
| 21:31.51 | Discordian | Tescos stock it |
| 21:33.20 | wethrin | which? Badger Original? |
| 21:33.21 | Discordian | My favourite ales/beers are Hoegaarden, Summer Lightning and badgers |
| 21:35.33 | wethrin | I'm not aware of the badger beers being flavoured with ginger. I have had some beers that have had quite a lot of ginger in them. They're....quite distinctive |
| 21:35.50 | Discordian | Hmmm maybe I'm mistaken |
| 21:36.12 | Discordian | I've had beer that was heavily ginger flavoured |
| 21:36.15 | wethrin | Beartown Brewery |
| 21:36.20 | wethrin | Ginger Bear |
| 21:36.41 | wethrin | That's a bit like drinking Christmas |
| 21:37.34 | Discordian | ahhh |
| 21:37.47 | Discordian | It's a Badger Beers brew |
| 21:37.51 | secretlondon | we should have an xmas meet with copious alcohol |
| 21:37.55 | Discordian | The name is Blandford Fly |
| 21:38.00 | wethrin | ahhh |
| 21:38.02 | Armand | gnite all.. |
| 21:38.06 | wethrin | night Armand |
| 21:38.11 | secretlondon | like the one the year before last that ended up in my flat at 5am |
| 21:38.14 | Armand | :) |
| 21:38.15 | secretlondon | might armand |
| 21:38.25 | Armand | that too. :D |
| 21:38.34 | wethrin | That was a post-Lonix meet, wasn't it? |
| 21:38.38 | secretlondon | yep |
| 21:38.47 | Discordian | http://www.hall-woodhouse.co.uk/beers/badgerales/blandfordfly.asp |
| 21:38.53 | wethrin | EvilDave was bad and make me drink throughout the day |
| 21:39.05 | secretlondon | I remember, we'd been drinking the day before too |
| 21:39.20 | wethrin | Ahha - that sounds interesting |
| 21:39.31 | secretlondon | and then you started at lunchtime, and then I rung you and russell that evening to find out where you were.. |
| 21:39.55 | secretlondon | and you were already wasted |
| 21:40.21 | Discordian | I'm sure there's a subtext to it being called GLLUG |
| 21:40.25 | secretlondon | yess |
| 21:40.28 | wethrin | It's all Evil Dave's fault |
| 21:40.52 | wethrin | Feel free to organise a pissup :) |
| 21:41.01 | secretlondon | we need to make sure that gllug/lonix get suitably gllugged this year |
| 21:41.15 | secretlondon | I shall, as long as others pay |
| 21:41.27 | Discordian | all the meets I ever went to wound up in pubs |
| 21:41.38 | Discordian | usually the City Pride |
| 21:41.40 | wethrin | All Gllug meets end up in the pub |
| 21:41.56 | wethrin | City Pride? I take it that's not the one around Westminster? |
| 21:42.08 | Discordian | The one in Docklands |
| 21:42.10 | secretlondon | we tend to meet in pubs with decent beer |
| 21:42.14 | Discordian | near south quay |
| 21:42.24 | wethrin | Ahh, well. Bit far to go from W'min :) |
| 21:42.28 | Discordian | when we used to meet at GND |
| 21:43.16 | secretlondon | that could easily coincide |
| 21:43.29 | secretlondon | and can't we do before new year? |
| 21:43.40 | Discordian | There's plenty of nice pubs near wmin.ac.uk |
| 21:43.44 | secretlondon | wethrin: you gonna be dahn sarf this year? |
| 21:44.10 | wethrin | I suspect there'll be a few people drinking around the 30th/31st. Possibly even in the Market Porter. There's the London Open Go Tournament at New Years |
| 21:44.30 | wethrin | secretlondon: For a short while. I suspect I'll be coming back on the 21st, and leaving on the 6th |
| 21:44.31 | Discordian | at london bridge? |
| 21:44.32 | secretlondon | ah - i think there was a geek from that at the LBW thingey |
| 21:44.35 | wethrin | Aye |
| 21:44.55 | secretlondon | wethrin: well we must meet up for beer during that time frame |
| 21:45.00 | wethrin | indeed |
| 21:45.06 | Discordian | I've never actually drunk in the market porter |
| 21:45.11 | wethrin | you should |
| 21:45.14 | wethrin | 'tis a nice pub |
| 21:45.41 | Discordian | It was always amusing to see people drinking at 8am as I was inward bound to work |
| 21:45.59 | secretlondon | it closed at like 10pm when we were there |
| 21:46.05 | secretlondon | which was unimpressive |
| 21:46.26 | secretlondon | and it was full, but then it was exmas |
| 21:46.28 | Discordian | i've drunk in the Doggets Cap and badge many times |
| 21:46.38 | wethrin | 8am was probably lunchtime for the workers from the market |
| 21:46.51 | Discordian | and the one just beyond the tate modern |
| 21:46.54 | Discordian | Yes |
| 21:46.59 | wethrin | Not the Founders? |
| 21:47.01 | wethrin | The Anchor? |
| 21:47.05 | Discordian | I worked on Smithfield market |
| 21:47.10 | Discordian | as a student |
| 21:47.13 | Discordian | same thing |
| 21:47.21 | Discordian | 8am was about lunch |
| 21:47.26 | Discordian | The Founders |
| 21:47.38 | secretlondon | I went to new covent garden in the afternoon this year and we got loads of free veg.. |
| 21:47.42 | Discordian | The anchor is just off Clink Street |
| 21:47.45 | secretlondon | and then cooked it all |
| 21:47.56 | wethrin | nice |
| 21:48.07 | Discordian | At Nice elms? |
| 21:48.10 | secretlondon | yep |
| 21:48.25 | secretlondon | it was full of people skipping/dumpster diving |
| 21:48.30 | Discordian | I really must venture into Borough Market |
| 21:48.33 | secretlondon | we got as much as we could carry |
| 21:49.08 | Discordian | Chapel Street market is like that after it closes, up in islington |
| 21:55.13 | Discordian | i'll come to the next meet/social |
| 21:55.54 | secretlondon | cool |
| 21:56.24 | Discordian | Though you'll all hate me |
| 21:57.10 | secretlondon | nah |
| 21:57.28 | Discordian | i'm really annoying |
| 21:57.33 | secretlondon | everyone is a geek at a gllug meet |
| 21:59.02 | Discordian | Lol |
| 21:59.18 | morsing | 'morning |
| 21:59.20 | Discordian | Some people probably know me of old anyway |
| 21:59.32 | Discordian | Murb and Spudulike certainly do |
| 21:59.44 | secretlondon | morning morsing |
| 21:59.47 | wethrin | murb doesn't come to Gllug meetings any more |
| 22:00.12 | wethrin | not since he moved to Germany |
| 22:00.27 | Discordian | I think his being in Luxembourg or wherever might be a good reason |
| 22:00.28 | morsing | secretlondon! |
| 22:00.33 | morsing | wethrin: You suck |
| 22:00.38 | wethrin | morsing: Go to sleep |
| 22:00.44 | morsing | :( |
| 22:00.47 | wethrin | He gave up the Luxembourg job years ago |
| 22:01.01 | Discordian | I lose track |
| 22:01.01 | secretlondon | work at 2am? |
| 22:01.10 | morsing | Yes |
| 22:01.36 | Discordian | maintenance window? |
| 22:04.26 | morsing | No - Rugby World cup :( |
| 22:04.35 | wethrin | you have a new job already? |
| 22:04.40 | wethrin | have beer |
| 22:04.41 | morsing | wethrin: No...? |
| 22:04.44 | wethrin | Rugby goes better with beer |
| 22:04.49 | wethrin | I thought you got sacked... |
| 22:04.56 | morsing | I did |
| 22:05.09 | wethrin | ... |
| 22:06.25 | morsing | Mmm... Geezer |
| 22:07.05 | wethrin | so.... |
| 22:07.07 | Discordian | I dislike team sports |
| 22:07.22 | wethrin | if you got sacked, and don't have another job, why're you on-call at 2a? |
| 22:07.26 | secretlondon | everyone hates team sports - especially when we were children |
| 22:07.31 | Discordian | ones where you can work on your personal best work better |
| 22:07.46 | secretlondon | wethrin: presumably he is working until he finishes |
| 22:07.59 | wethrin | that can be dangerous |
| 22:08.22 | secretlondon | it can be if people decide to take revenge with the root password |
| 22:08.41 | wethrin | indeed |
| 22:08.52 | secretlondon | nothing like a sysadmin scorned |
| 22:08.53 | wethrin | Or even make legit changes without any form of documentation |
| 22:09.13 | secretlondon | BOFH revenge |
| 22:09.31 | wethrin | clue-by-four |
| 22:09.44 | Discordian | make sysads login with nomal users |
| 22:10.00 | Discordian | Then you have a trail |
| 22:10.16 | wethrin | nice policy. But a sysadmin scorned....... |
| 22:10.27 | secretlondon | can delete the trial |
| 22:10.27 | Discordian | and something like tripwire |
| 22:10.37 | Discordian | Sure |
| 22:10.50 | xotl | 2am? is aylesbury in its own timezone? |
| 22:11.04 | wethrin | lightweight |
| 22:11.07 | secretlondon | I agree |
| 22:11.12 | wethrin | xotl: Yes. It's trapped in the past. |
| 22:11.16 | morsing | wethrin: I'm not on-call but on-site |
| 22:11.27 | Discordian | I'd favour disusering a sysadmin who's resigned |
| 22:11.37 | morsing | wethrin: I didn't get sacked they're just not renewing my contract next month |
| 22:11.40 | Discordian | and making them document stuff |
| 22:11.42 | wethrin | ahh |
| 22:11.52 | xotl | oh ok so its 2am yesterday in aylesbury |
| 22:11.54 | morsing | wethrin: Also, getting sacked doesn't mean being walked to the door |
| 22:12.01 | wethrin | depends on the circumstances of their resignation, really |
| 22:12.03 | secretlondon | out of practice |
| 22:12.36 | Discordian | Indeed |
| 22:12.39 | xotl | sacked to me means fired |
| 22:13.04 | wethrin | yeah. Not renewing contract is different |
| 22:13.06 | secretlondon | on short term contracts a non-renewal of contract amounts to being fored |
| 22:13.34 | secretlondon | as it's easier to not renew than to go through the procedure of firing you |
| 22:13.35 | xotl | wethrin: yeah its being made redundant |
| 22:13.39 | wethrin | indeed |
| 22:13.55 | xotl | redundant and fired are two entirely different things |
| 22:13.59 | wethrin | maybe. It could just be that the company's run out of work for the contractor to do |
| 22:14.20 | xotl | I don't know why people always blur the two |
| 22:14.37 | secretlondon | for dramatic effect? |
| 22:14.50 | Discordian | i've been made redudant a few times |
| 22:14.52 | xotl | secretlondon: you may well be right there |
| 22:15.01 | Discordian | Never been fired |
| 22:15.55 | xotl | I agree that there can be some ambiguity with a contractor: ie if you want to fire him then it is essentially the same procedure since they are normally on no-notice contracts |
| 22:17.02 | secretlondon | good night all |
| 22:17.05 | wethrin | night secretlondon |
| 22:17.06 | morsing | g'night |
| 22:17.09 | Discordian | Good night |
| 22:17.12 | xotl | night |
| 22:17.20 | secretlondon | zzz *thud* |
| 22:17.26 | wethrin | xotl: sure - but then the contractor should know - it'll depend on whether there's still work left to do or not |
| 22:18.17 | Discordian | I resigned when there was no work left for me at my last contract |
| 22:18.26 | xotl | wethrin: yeah there is still a distinction because a fired contractor could not get a reference, which I imagine is the worst part of getting fired |
| 22:19.17 | xotl | Discordian: if they were paying you to do no work then you may as well have milked it |
| 22:19.45 | Discordian | Errr not my style sorry |
| 22:19.48 | wethrin | use the time to learn new things |
| 22:19.59 | Discordian | It was annoying |
| 22:20.04 | wethrin | and it'll be some excuse that it could still benefit the company you're working for |
| 22:20.14 | Discordian | and their IT manager was an idiot |
| 22:20.26 | Discordian | and net access was crap |
| 22:20.39 | wethrin | mmm |
| 22:21.25 | Discordian | I worked from home for 3 months |
| 22:22.03 | Discordian | Cos he couldn't get a Leased Line from one office to another fixed |
| 22:22.27 | wethrin | isn't that a case of phoning BT and shouting at them? |
| 22:22.36 | Discordian | Yes |
| 22:22.43 | Discordian | It wasn't my remit |
| 22:23.01 | Discordian | and he failed completely to get it fixed |
| 22:23.42 | Discordian | I recall mentioning my approach would be to ask the BT Account manager on site |
| 22:23.55 | Discordian | and not let them leave to it was fixed |
| 22:24.07 | Discordian | s/to/till |
| 22:24.56 | xotl | morsing: how long have you got left on your contract? |
| 22:37.58 | goibhniu | xteddy how are you? |
| 22:39.15 | goibhniu | xteddy: keep an eye on morsing tonight |
| 22:39.16 | xteddy | :) |
