Our next four games will see us drop like a stone. FYP Fuck me I'm going blind! Took me a while to see the change there!!

Where's the cagey boring bitty 0-0 draw option?

Only if the total sum is less than £30k Just gone through exactly the same thing. Think I mentioned it on here late last year that my role was up for redundancy. Thing dragged on for a while with them pretty keen to keep me on. They ended up offering me a role in the, not yet created, projects team. However, unbeknown to them, a company I had dealt with in the past had contacted me, I'd had a couple of meetings with them and had verbally agreed to join. Told my line manager, thanks but no thanks, I'll just take my redundancy. Agreed on a end date that gave me enough time to train up a couple of staff members. Echoed that date to my future employer and they were happy. So finished at one place and started at the next the following week... with a nice big chunk of change to follow!

As will Media Player Classic - http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm Alternatively, if you're adamant you want to use WMP, you can use this - http://www.orban.com/plugin/Read_Me.html - which gives you an nice little information card type thingy in your WMP visualization screen showing album art, bit rate and stuff.

While you can't know it for an absolute fact of course, I think most would conclude that it is fake. Unless of course, Sima is... DUM-DUM-DUM, John Arne Riise!

You can't block individual numbers apparently. You'll need to contact your provider and get your number changed... although that'll mean that you'll have to go round and update all those cubical walls!

Well if it is for a female, then perhaps he should really go to town and get one of these babies:

He never said he was buying for a 'person' though.

Uh oh

I was feeling a bit depressed the other day so I called the Samaritans and was put through to a Call Centre in Pakistan. I explained that I was feeling suicidal. They were very excited at this news and wanted to know if I could drive a truck or fly an aeroplane.

Err... Happy Birthday!!

Don't you sync it with iTunes? Nope. Doesn't that automatically move any music onto your ipod once it's in itunes? There's twice as much on Itunes as will fit on the ipod, so I need to be selective. Depends on how you've configured it. You can set it to sync all or just certain playlists.

Had a similar thing at the weekend when I wanted to trade in my Xbox 360 for the Elite version. Phoned up Game and asked if they had any Elites in stock, guy says "No, they're limited edition" then (after being corrected by someone else) says "oh I've been misinformed, we have got some in". So I tell him I'll be there in 30 mins or so. "Get there and queue up, holding my original Xbox 360. Notice someone bringing out the new Elite for a customer, then a woman comes up to me and says "Are you trading that in?" "Yes, I want to get the new Elite", I say. "Oh, they're limited edition I'm afraid, we haven't got any in stock" "Well you had some in stock when I phoned 30 minutes ago, and that couple over there has just bought one", I reply "Oh! Err... oh you better queue up then" Finally get to the till, and what do I get? Yep, limited edition blah blah, none in stock. Then the guy asks the manager who informs him they've got loads in stock and they're all piled at the top of the stairs! Customer service isn't what is used to be!! "Had me on the edge of my seat right to the end........a real pageturner!" - Gemmill, Toontastic Probably one of those "you had to be there" stories tbf

Sad fuckers because they only gave you a 3?

Don't you sync it with iTunes?

I'm sure wor Fish has better things to do than hang around Smoothys old work place!

Hard to have sympathy for a bloke who get's a £4mil payoff for being incompetent tbh.

Perfect!

Why? You thinking of going via Nigeria?

QFT Can't get mine until December though

Me too after reading that!

Bloody hell, if you had swapped Owen for Martins that would of been a clean sweep! Eh? Wasn't the full time score 3-1? ...and Owen went off in the 79th minute[/pedant]
