oohh errr, I hope I am not last here!
It really was a lovely evening, and just a tad warmer than last year.
Once again, it really was terrific to catch up with old friends and meet new ones.
Shame not everyone could make it, but still, it was a grand night.
Thank you Shireen and Steve Mids. It better not be a whole year before we catch up again.

Wooooo Hoooooo, can work and talk bolox to you lot at the same time now :happy:
Just be careful with this one Meat.
I once gave a virtual tour of my half built shed to someone that I cared deeply about. This virtual tour consisted of a laptop in one hand, a webcam in the other, a phone cradled to my ear and a torch in the armpit.
Trying to walk over the joists, knocking over a ladder making a huge dent in the wall, and basically making a complete idiot of myself, did not make for an interesting evening.
Needless to say the relationship did not last very long .........

Grrrrrrr, fekin wireless networks
been trying to get mine working for ages now, finally decided there was a problem with the usb dongle widget so picked up a Pcmcia card today.
So, does it work now Meaty? does if feck :taz:
Anyway, on to the details, i have a Belkin F5D7230-4 router and a Belkin Wireless G Notebook Network Card.
done all the installation things, have set the Ip Address, Default Gateway, DNS and Alt DNS, WEP Encryption, Firewall etc. and anything else i think is needed.
The software is reporting an excellent signal strength and full connectivity with no limitations. problem is i can't get it to connect to the internet (Blueyonder ISP with Motorola Surfboard) but annoyingly i can connect by using the RJ45 lead.
WTF is going onany ideas and suggestions to stop me tearing out any more hair will be gratefully received
Just a quick suggestion while I remember -
On wireless encryption Microsoft changed the setting on the Key Index when they released SP2 for XP. So before this if your index was say 1, under SP2 it would be 2 (I think it was that way round).
Anyway, just a thought, just remember, although the keys may match exactly, you need to make sure the key index is also correct.
All this presuming you are running Microsoft - what a sad sad world we live in!!

Not forgetting MC Sassygobshite :giggle:
Thats it then, all sorted,
well just about.
What about the style? Maybe a rap, I could possibly provide the bass backing while you two provide the duets?
Well, for those of you contemplating camping, especially for the first time, bearing in mind Wild Rose and Stags forthcoming reception, I thought it appropriate to stick up an event that happened to me last year.
Obviously all names have been changed to protect the innocent. It is probably a bit long winded, but try and see it through to the end!!
If you have never been camping before, this will read as absolute nonsense, however, for those of you who have spent at least one night under canvas, then you may appreciate this.
Ok, to set the scene.
8pm one warm evening on a campsite. Dave and I, both experienced campers mulling over stuff with a couple of beers. The pitches are surrounded on three sides by thick trees.
On the other side of the trees in the adjacent pitch behind us a car arrives and we hear voices. From what we can make out, it sounds like two couples. Although I cannot remember the complete dialogue, it went something like this. For ease of reading let us assume that couple 1 are Jack and Dianne, couple number 2 are Rosie and Jim.
Jack: Wow this site looks good (as we hear the crash of tent poles and stuff being heaved from the car)
Rosie: Where did you put the instructions?
Dave and I look at each other and grin
Jim: Nah – don’t need the instructions these tents are easy to put up
Dianne: But Jim, we have never been camping before
Dave and I share a small giggle – this is going to be fun
Lots of rattling is heard as we hear poles being put together
Jim: Hey, they have a bar on site, once we do this we can have a drink
Dave and I check our watches 8:15 – bar shuts at 11, nah no way
Jim: Well that’s the frame up, told you it was easy
Dianne: It doesn’t look like that in the picture
Jack: It must be just a general picture
Rosie: What are these poles for?
Jim: Extras
Dianne: Are you sure it looks like that – it seems very small
Jim: You girls go and look around while us guys do this
Rustle of canvas
Rosie: Is it meant to look that baggy
Jim: YES
Pauses
Jack: Rosie, where are those other poles
All goes quiet, lots of rustling
Jack: Err Jim, pass me that pole
Jim: Why, it doesn’t go there
Jack: Yes it bloody well does, here look at the picture
Time drifts by……………
Rosie: Seems to being going quite well guys
Jim: Where the bloody hell have you been, why don’t you at least lend a hand
Time drifts by………..
Jim: There we go, told you it was easy
Dave and I check our watches – 10pm
Dianne: What are all the pegs for?
Jim: I never said it was finished
Rosie: There seems to be lots of rope here
Jim: Yes of course there is, we do that last
Quite ironically the wind now starts to pick up ………
Jim: Rosie, where are those bloody pegs
Rosie: By your left foot dear
Jim: Why the f*** did you leave them there
Lots of banging now as the tent pegs finally go in
Kids in the background start to cry
Dave and I cracking up in our beer
Jack: I can’t see a bloody thing here
Jim: Get the bloody torch
Jack: I don’t have a bloody torch …………
Jim: Rosie turn the car headlights on
Jim: God’s sake, you will run the battery down, start the bloody engine
Dave and I look at each other – Petrol or Diesel?
Why is it that everything sounds so much louder at night?
The roar of a diesel is heard
Dave and I check our watches – 11:30
Jim: These guy ropes don’t work, there bloody useless, cheap shitty tent
Rosie: Darling, I don’t think they are meant to go like that
Jim: They are just crap – I’m going for a piss, you coming Dave
Lots of bustling heard
Time passes by
Rosie: Hi guys, did you find the loo ok?
Jim: I was just about to do those ropes, well done, although they look a little loose, here, this is how you tighten them
Jack: Ok ladies why don’t you do the sleeping bags while I get the mattresses up.
Dave and I turn as one – Oh no ffs, not air beds – electric or foot pump, we check our watches – midnight
SQUEEK SQUEEK SQUEEK
Foot pump
Jim: Why is there all these stones under the ground sheet?
Jack: Dianne, I told you to make sure the area was clear of stones
Dianne: No you fuc***g idiot – you never said a bloody word
Dave: Whispers I call this the “total meltdown pointâ€
Jim: This poxy airbed has a hole in it
Rosie: It would help if you inserted this bung here instead of up your ass
All goes quiet apart from the continual SQUEEK SQUEEK SQUEEK
Time passes by ………….
Jack: The beach looks nice
No response – all is quiet
SQUEEK SQUEEK SQUEEK
Jim: There we go girls – we said it would be easy
Rosie: F*** off, I’m going to bed
Jim: Yep, just coming dear
Rosie: Piss off, see you in the morning
Rustle of zips etc is heard
Jack: God, women, they get to excitable
Dave and I check our watches – 1:30
If, Rosie, Jim, Jack or Dianne ever read this, please don’t think that I am taking the micky here. I wrote this in tribute to the four of you for providing Dave and I with the best entertainment we have had for years.
To all others reading this who have never done the camping thing but are thinking about it – let this be a warning to you – you never know who’s watching and listening to you.

Ahhhh memories memories.
Well the first time for me was around 1978 in an Imp Californian. The car actually belonged to my sister and was parked up in the garage at the time. It was the only place that offered some seclusion for my childhood sweetheart and me. :inlove:
It certainly was a lovely car, I actually learnt how to drive in it. I went off to see if I could find a pic and came across this - quite appropriate I thought (the Californian is the one with the sloping back)

For some reason it was always the fudge ad that did it for me.
Even now, I remember every word grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat
A finger of fudge is just enough until it's time to eat
Nooooooooooo
I canna take this nooooo more - get it out of my head :shock:

I'm taking the day off on Friday 7/7 and riding the underground.
Then I'm going to the memorial at Regents park and laying a flower.
Anyone else???????????
Well Tabbi,
I for one will be joining you - errrrr well in spirit anyway.
I had intended to get to London that day and as it turns out, I have found a way.
I was in London when it happened and I intend to be there on the anniversary and will be following your example.
Good on you Tabbi, well done
p.s. very nice tattoo :rascal:

Certainly an interesting topic, and one that makes you ponder people’s morals.
All those years ago when I was at school, there was a 16 year old girl there, extremely attractive, who made no bones whatsoever about the fact her sole intent was to find a rich guy and “accidentally†get pregnant.
More worrying was the fact that her mother actually encouraged this behaviour and found nothing wrong with it all.
There are probably numerous reasons why her mother thought this way, but still, it made me stop and think about a lot of stuff at the time, mainly how and why people use others.
I never did find out if she got her wish, but it was interesting that she was mostly shunned while at school.

Dawnie chin up girl,
at the end of the day, this is your health were talking about, which is much much more important that any alcohol.
Certainly for me, I would find it difficult indeed. Not so much from a personnel perspective, but the job that I do. It seems so often in business, alcohol comes into the equation all to often.
Of course I could abstain in these "business meetings", but more often than not, I find some individuals treat you with disdain if you wont join them in a drink. Probably just a sad reflection on society that we live in a drinking culture, certainly in this country.
Anyway, for you Dawnie, forget the drinking, ice cream is far nicer anyway!!

to be honest, if I get chatting to virtual vanilla friends, i always tell them that I am a member here.
And yes, the responses are what you have said. However, that said, the peeps that that I have told that actually come and pay a visit to the cafe do see a different side and some have actually stayed.
Just goes to show, that old adage happens time and time again - Never judge a book by its cover ....................... (or what the press insinuate)

Ok ok - what I need now is the ice cream and Dark with a kebab to help me bop around the lounge - ( but only if the said kebab has chilli sauce)
Life dont get much better than this (well for me)

All I need is some ice cream and I would be in heaven
