vanaheim Ohh MRsH I haven't read the whole thread (sorry, will come back later and do that) for now I'll just tell you the ones I remember.. Flying saucers, Black Jacks and fruit salads. Everton Mints Gob Stoppers Pineapple chunks (me too) swizzle sticks and sherbert dips .

Twee Surgeon Reference: skylark thanks Twee, will try tomoro, again, my head munched, had 16 month old granddaughter and i cant think no more!! xxx At this time of night my brain starts to slow down sky. Try again tomorrow when you are fresh. Little people of 16 months old can be quite tiring, what with running after them and watching they stay out of danger. No wonder you are tired lol. Hyper has started a thread for learning how to do things, so go in there and ask. [ more ]

Twee Surgeon Reference: skylark nope i didnt do it, was trying to do what Twee did and failed miserably !! i.e quoting and putting avatar in post , will keep trying. This forum is hard work, we were spoilt before, werent we lol Scotty took the hard sharp approach to explaining how to cut and paste avvys, and it seemed to have the desired effect on me after reams and reams of dissenting posts, refusing to cut and paste. She is a good teacher, albeit a bit tough in her approach to learners All you have to... [ more ]

Pay for BBC iPlayer says TV chief
captain marbles We already pay for iPlayer. it's called the licence fee. I'm personally furious that various lowlife politico's in all the parties are trying to destroy the breadth of entertainment that we get for our 3 quid a week. For me BBC4 is worth a fiver a week on its' own. [ more ]
Darthhoob he's not thought it through. i think the fact that you can watch tv on telly for 'free' (i say free but we pay a license!) has probably cut down on illegal downloading a little. making people pay upto £2 a show would just make people download instead....then it'll be harder for them to crack down on illegal downloading cos practically everyone will be doing it.

Broadband tax 'to be made law'
The Devil In Diamante Reference:Lacey I'll have to have a proper read of this, I'm not really understanding it. I'm a little confused too Lacey, it says Broadband then says about people using old technology....do they mean everyone with a telephone line will pay it or just those who get broadband through it? Whatever they mean, yes, it is another Tax that will rise & rise.....shameless feckers.... [ more ]

The Great Leveller This was such a good series - anyone remember the prison that they had to dig into, and it wasnt a prison at all.... also the first HND... I loved BB2 - thats my favourite - helen, paul, brian, bubble and dean were good housemates and there wasnt the nastiness that year (well not after narinder left!!)

Help needed, the Digital Switchover....
The Devil In Diamante Thanks for your replies, I do have a TV with bult in digital in my bedrooom, I also has Freeview plus in there...I just wondered if a booster would help but i guess not... They're doing our switch off in 3 parts, the first on the 30 th September so hopefully the signal will improve then.....I need Dave in my bedroom (trust Dave to be one of the channels I cannot get upstairs)...hmph, maybe I'll have to go down the getting it connected to the main ariel route, I was hoping for a cheaper option... [ more ]
Carnelian The reason why digital TV may be staggered in a house is probably due to different boxes processing the digital signal at different speeds. Digital boxes have to decode the signal (in principal, a bit like a PC Modem, I think) before showing pictures. [ more ]
Carnelian I also doubt an aerial booster will work. Crap-in-crap-out, as they say. Boosters will amplify the signal power but also amplify the distortion. It's worth a go, if you can get a refund if it doesn't work. A roof aerial (or improving your roof aerial) is really the best solution. However, one thing to watch out for is that there's actually no such thing as a 'digital aerial', although you'll see the words on the sides of vans, it's actually just marketing taking advantage of the Digital ...

OT: Myleene Klass: I'm glad someone else agrees with me!
carotino Up there with Jason Donovan. [ more ]
Carnelian Katie Brand is overexposed since she manages to get her own TV show despite being about as funny as paint drying. At least Myleene Klass is genuinely pretty and likeable, unlike Ms Brand, who isn't genuinely funny or likeable. [ more ]
CheekyPixie Bit of a tough one for me as I like Myleene AND Katy. Katy's sketch show was about as funny as piles when it first started, but the second series was better, with the piss taking of Kate 'I'm normal' Winslett and the victorian strumpets, and the female soldier ('be the best!') amongst many others... And this season it is even funnier (IMO of course. I know some think she is shit LOL.) And I do like Myleene as she is pretty and she is a nice girl basically, and pretty decent at her job. But...

newspaper typos and mistakes
Former Member I remember when i was teaching for this lottery funded community project thiny early last year. they spent a great deal of their budget on a timetable to go out in the free paper to all southampton. They wanted to say in big bold red letters at the bottom SUPPORT THE WARREN CENTRE and beleive it or not the printers couldnt fit it all in one line so they put a hyphen in it so it read SUPPORT THE WAR - REN CENTRE they went mental cause they thought it looked like some far right propaganda [ more ]
Croctacus Watford Observer circa 1989, after a major gas explosion had blown up a house killing two people, the paper planner did not notice, though the advertising agency did, a 25 x4 ad (quarter page on a tabloid) in a double pages (broadsheet) news story about it, there was a nice British Gas ad with the tagline 'Gas, The Heat of the Moment!' And Ipswich Evening Star chart run down with the number 1 being Joyce Simms - Come into My Mouth....(although that wasn't a typo it was deliberate by a member... [ more ]
Karma_ Also when I worked at local press our typesetters got some of the ads mixed up, and put some of the dirty girls under the bereavement section. So you'd open up the paper and under bereavement it would say 'For my grandad Stan, sadly missed by your family' and then straight underneath would say 'Busty hot Shelly is waiting to show you a good time' [ more ]

POLL: Strictly Come Dancing
brisket Reference: Fairfax I like Ricky Groves... I just adored his energy and 'go for it' attitude. Yes Fairfax. It was as if he had broken some sort of barrier. Rather like when Gethin did the Salsa last year after a session with the acting coach. Ricky Groves seemed to be thinking "Don`t faff about Ricky just give it some thrutch; you've nothing to lose." (Or words to that effect.) [ more ]
Fairfax I like Ricky Groves, I don't watch E Enders so can't be accused of being biased. I just adored his energy and 'go for it' attitude. He made me LOL Did you see his wife in the audience (mortified) but laughing too. [ more ]
darloboy (Play The Game!) Reference: im not likin ali at all, yeh shes a good dancer but im bettin that soewere shes had dancin training stage school probs? Looks like it, but Ricky Groves has also had stage school training you always get some every year with a little advantage but that doesn't always mean they will be perfect as they've got to master all the moves and it's so hard they need the technique, stamina and determination. Ricky Whittle has already danced on the BBC for Comic Relief though . [ more ]

Question about bruises
charmer i went to the docs about the same thing-i fell down some stairs in jan this year-the doc said its normal (not to fall down stairs!) the bruise can stay for months or even years [ more ]
Former Member Reference: Think it's pretty normal when you've had really bad bruising Aimee- they can take years to go away! I had a fall 18 months ago and bruised my knee very badly and you can still see a faint outline of the bruise so I agree, depending on how bad the bruise, they can take some time to go [ more ]
