TV Schedule...as far as is known for the upcoming footie

Oooh thanks Sprooot that's handy  

Only one thing Rog, they are actual KO times I believe. Like tonight's match starts at 8.00 but the opening ceremony and chatter beforehand starts at 7.15 

Sometimes I like to miss the pre match waffle so that was perfect

So for my eldest recent B'day she wanted Bring Me the Horizon tickets for Nov... Now she only turned 14 and her sensible  friends aren't into her kind of music (there is one but she is while being a lovely girl, left to do what she wants a bit... I wouldn't be 100% comfortable with just the two of them in an arena etc so I'm going with my daughter instead ... I think i might be mad (My friend thinks i'm too strict) but we are so close i'm sure we will have a great time... Here is the band

Before smartphones could do it with apps.

Here's the thing: I lost my pocket calculator in January and I really miss it. I'd had it for over 20 years and it was (for it's day) a really good one: scientific, did hexadecimal (one of my requirements for work use) and solar-powered.

 

Yes; I've got a scientific calculator on my smartphone (although the basic one that came with the phone doesn't do binary/hexadecimal), and yes; over the last couple of years I've tended to favour it over my old pocket calculator. However the pocket calculator still has its advantages, such as the keys being bigger and they give you a nice physical response when you press them - I often find myself making mistakes when I'm doing a lot of calculations on my phone because I miss that "feedback".

And for anyone who thinks I'm a luddite for preferring my pocket calculator, just remember that Sir Clive Sinclair still carries one of these bad boys around with him everywhere he goes:

I loves the old stuff like you and GJ. I would love to get my hands on an old reel to reel.

Phew !!!

 

That's saved the multi- billionaires Page & Plant from having to shell out some cash. 

Unless there is an appeal and the decision is reversed 

I was being a little cheeky, as you probably worked out, but my guess is if there was an appeal and they lost they would probably have to pay based on numbers sold and a portion for airplay.

I didn't but that's not your fault, just my lack of perception

And I am also acutely aware that I have to be very careful with my wording. Being on my mobile I have no smilies.

Not sure what thread I was in where I was talking about using colouring books to try and improve the dexterity and flexibility of my right hand/arm, but here's the first result:-

One was done with my left hand and one was done with my right.

Does it show here, Moonie?

Not for me either.
