| 09:51.06 | morsing | Cawfy |
| 09:52.01 | Leeds | good idea |
| 09:55.29 | z00dax | woo! |
| 09:58.34 | Leeds | goes to get coffee |
| 10:16.07 | z00dax | any tipcs on property hunting in the city / |
| 10:16.23 | wethrin | Avoid Foxtons |
| 10:16.51 | z00dax | absolutely |
| 10:17.06 | wethrin | heads off |
| 10:19.54 | morsing | z00dax: Don't do it |
| 10:20.04 | morsing | z00dax: Avoid London for sure |
| 10:20.24 | morsing | z00dax: Move to Durham, lovely place! |
| 10:21.23 | z00dax | morsing: but my work is in London |
| 10:21.28 | z00dax | and my fiance's too |
| 10:24.20 | morsing | Get a job somewhere else |
| 10:24.30 | morsing | It only makes sense |
| 10:24.43 | z00dax | perhaps... |
| 10:24.45 | z00dax | but i am happy here |
| 10:25.23 | morsing | OMG - how can you be happy there?!?!? Can only be because you don't kow better |
| 10:26.40 | Stephmw | avoid Atkinson McLeod too |
| 10:26.57 | Stephmw | and Barnard Marcus... in fact, avoid agents |
| 10:27.30 | Stephmw | <3 London |
| 10:27.51 | morsing | London is hell on earth |
| 10:28.06 | Stephmw | only in _your_ cardboard box... |
| 10:28.33 | z00dax | morsing: our offices are in the 2nd floor of an old piano factory, in a residential area, the people I work with are some of the best in the buisness ( atleast in London area ). its not a half bad place to work |
| 10:29.53 | z00dax | although, to be fair, this place isnt 'the city', most people consider Kentish Town to be north of london |
| 10:30.07 | Stephmw | nods |
| 10:30.18 | Stephmw | do you still need a visa to come into zone 1? |
| 10:30.18 | z00dax | the big issues however, is that i live ( as hali puts it ) - out in the sticks further out east than the end of east |
| 10:30.48 | z00dax | yea! |
| 10:31.04 | *** join/#gllug ChoHag (i=mking@lego.monnsta.net) |
| 10:31.53 | z00dax | I used to live at londonbridge, about 50yrds from the station, for 6 months in 2003. Wasent half bad. ofcourse, no question of a car or driving anywhere. and i am not a very public transport friendly person |
| 10:32.05 | morsing | ChoHag! |
| 10:32.27 | z00dax | Stephmw: avoiding all agents is kinda hard. unless you know some special place to look ? |
| 10:33.52 | Stephmw | z00dax: alas not, I just know that agents just go from place to place, so they'll all be bad at some point |
| 10:37.25 | z00dax | true |
| 10:39.25 | morsing | z00dax: Berkhamsted is very nice |
| 10:39.58 | z00dax | does look nice indeed |
| 10:40.05 | z00dax | whats the connections like into kings cross ? |
| 10:41.09 | morsing | Well, train to ermm... The one after Marylebone, is about 24 minutes |
| 10:41.24 | wethrin | Euston? |
| 10:41.27 | morsing | Yeah |
| 10:41.39 | morsing | so 30-32 mins to KX |
| 10:42.09 | morsing | Hang on - the fast trains might not stop at Berkhamsted |
| 10:42.11 | morsing | Not sure |
| 10:42.27 | morsing | But why would you want to go to London anyway? |
| 10:42.39 | wethrin | It has a vibrant social life scene |
| 10:42.49 | morsing | LOL :D :D :D Very funny |
| 10:42.52 | wethrin | I, for one, very much enjoyed going to concerts and theatres when I was in London |
| 10:43.08 | wethrin | And radio/TV recordings |
| 10:43.10 | morsing | But you never lived in London |
| 10:43.32 | wethrin | That's true. But I only lived half an hour away |
| 10:44.20 | wethrin | Parsons Green always felt really nice to me, the times I've been there |
| 10:44.34 | morsing | Tottenham |
| 10:44.41 | morsing | used to live there |
| 10:44.49 | morsing | was a token white person |
| 10:45.24 | hali | is after a simple web file upload utility.. any suggestions? |
| 10:46.03 | antiphase | Write a CGI script in $language_du_jour |
| 10:46.49 | wethrin | antiphase is correct |
| 10:47.02 | antiphase | \o/ |
| 10:47.02 | wethrin | It'd take about 10 minutes of PHP hackery |
| 10:47.19 | wethrin | offers a cookie |
| 11:36.57 | hali | i don't have cookie support |

| 11:44.29 | bilarh | i'm sure my other half will be thrilled at the prospect of me spending my weekends outside in the rain welding an exhaust manifold rather than doing house work |

| 14:43.15 | bilarh | dick_turpin: it seems it's a pointless exercise of spending tons of money on stupid presents and receiving presents in return that you didn't want anyway |
| 14:43.24 | bilarh | good for retailers, i suppose |
| 14:45.12 | dick_turpin | bilarh: Its worse for me, I get mums & dads wanting refurb laptops for the kids at the cheapest price possible. You just know there's gonna be trouble in the new year :-( |
| 14:45.35 | bilarh | you work for some high class retailer, eh? :D |
| 14:45.44 | bilarh | can they pay it off a pound a week? :D |

| 14:46.07 | bilarh | i'd be happy to buy one to be honest |

| 14:49.44 | bilarh | citi to cut 75k jobs :S :S :S |
| 14:51.03 | dick_turpin | bilarh: They have been on the way out for about 7 months now, I did have a card with them but paid it off when I had a letter saying they was closing branches |
| 14:51.32 | bilarh | yaeh but 75k jobs |
| 14:51.35 | bilarh | mainly in london and NY |
| 14:52.13 | dick_turpin | bilarh: I did consider running the limit up but even if they went bump I bet someone somewhere would hunt you down for the money |
| 14:52.23 | bilarh | oh definitely |
| 14:52.40 | bilarh | the debt would be sold off to someone else by the receiver |

| 15:46.26 | antiphase | morsing="gay" ./foo |
| 15:46.36 | antiphase | or just export it into your environment |
| 15:46.57 | morsing | Oh! Forgot the ; |
| 15:47.21 | morsing | This works: |
| 15:47.23 | morsing | value=beer; echo $value |
| 15:47.40 | morsing | But does nothing if you leave out the ; |
| 15:48.59 | antiphase | It works if you use upper-case variable names |
| 15:49.05 | antiphase | Parser fail |
| 15:50.40 | morsing | antiphase: No, uppercase didn't do it either. |
| 15:50.57 | morsing | And I can do multiple assignments before the ; |
| 15:52.31 | bilarh | morsing: you're not using the superior bash shell, are you? |
| 15:52.34 | antiphase | Your shell smells of poo and wee |
| 15:55.53 | bilarh | soo.. perhaps i shouldn't get those injectors |
| 15:56.05 | bilarh | it's possible to run dual injectors if you modify the inlet |
| 15:56.16 | bilarh | that would be the dogs danglies, i reckon |
| 15:56.29 | bilarh | and about 35 quid plus a couple of bolts and a bit of welding |
