  1. If I may speak for Duggeh for a moment.. Who would have thought that the answer to such a simple question as "what do you call a given meal?" could be a social signifier? As ever, the internet explains it better than I could. Tea, Dinner or Supper And for the official BBC take on the matter BBC World Service | Learning English | Ask about English Best quote from this Yahoo Answer What does "Lunch", "Dinner" and "Tea", "Supper" to british? - Yahoo! Answers "As with many things in British society, the name you give your midday meal can instantly identify your social origin"" So Depending on how Duggeh responds, we'll be able to tell if he is U or non-U U and non-U English - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia E.g Is the mid-day meal Lunch, as in "We must do Lunch sometime", or Dinner, as in "Dinner Ladies, the catering staff at state schools" (Mind you as a Quad owning, St Andrews old boy some would say that he has already given the game away )
  2. ^ You mean like this (dry, technical) or for a more entertaining take ... We now return you to your regular HD800 discussion

  10. Oz and James Drink to Britain The odd couple - the self-proclaimed wine ponce Oz Clarke and the scruffy petrolhead James May - set off on an extended pub crawl around Britain, driving a Rolls-Royce Corniche convertible and towing a caravan behind them. Their purpose “is to find the drinks that speak to modern Britain”. Yeah, right. At first, May is reluctant to make a fuss about beer. “It's like intellectualising sausages,” he says. “It's a simple drink for people who want to get on with something useful.” But after a few pints, he's up for anything, comparing the hoppy quality of a beer to “the sweetness of a nymph being chased by a Viking of bitterness”. As always with these two, their enjoyment is contagious.
  11. Oh dear, so much for all those no new gear in 2009 resolutions. Yet another reason to add to the long list of reasons to attend CanJam 2009. Who will be the first to acquire a pair in the Bay Area, and when will the first HD800 Enabled meet be? Inquiring minds want to know!
  12. Happy Birthday. Have a good one.

    Don't let your T-Shirt become a self fulfilling prophecy From The Smoking Gun via The Daily Telegraph Any thoughts for the next head case T-shirt slogan to avoid in light of the above?

    CanJam 2009

    Tough call, trying to keep all the people happy, all the time. How close can another meet be to the annual, in time and space, before it is seen as diluting the draw of the main meet? At least, now, we have a fixed(?) location and date, so can avoid stepping on peoples toes.
  18. Happy Birthday to yet another lucky Head Caser who gets a Public Holiday to recover, unless you plan on spending time in the basement ....

    So, will there be Booth Babes at CamJam 2009?
  20. Another Happy Birthday to add to the pile.
  21. Happy Birthday Guzziguy! Have a good one, and you even get a Public Holiday to recover. How cool is that.

  23. Take a look at this post in this thread at the other place
  24. When I first came to the US, I was surprised at the dominance of Top Loaders, which, from a European perspective, I considered to be obsolete technology, along with bleach - which is something your mother used, before the advent of enzymes or "biological" washing powders. [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laundry_detergent]Laundry detergent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame] It is only recently that that high-tech European Style newfangled front loaders seem to have caught on over here. More information than you ever wanted to know over at [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washing_machines]Washing machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame] , or from this convert A Better Way to do Laundry - What Should You Know About Front Load Washing Machines? - Epinions.com
