I hate that programme, and that woman GILLIAN MCKEITH, has a very dodgy reputation: Ben Goldacre: Brought to book: the poo lady's PhD | Science | The Guardian What's wrong with Gillian McKeith by Ben Goldacre | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited
Caught it as I went passed the TV in between feeding the dog and being on here and doing the e-mag! I reckon it just about put the dog off his dinner!
My fridge and freezer doors:- I got to use the PINK Swiss Knife I got for Christmas. I threaded a dog leash (far better use!) through the hole that you previously told me to cut. Sadly it didn't work so I had to take the door off! Actually I received THREE new handles in the post. They fit perfectly and match the fridge and freezer doors rather than the trim. I cannot however, resist the letter of complaint to recoup my not inconsiderable phone expenses and to highlight their inefficiencies.
RANT: the idiot who blew through a blatant red light as we were turning in front of him. Scared the crap out of Jodi as she was looking right at it. Why on earth, when everyone else has stopped, does someone feel the need to accelerate from 20 metres behind the white line when there are cars turning in front of him? It's like they turn the key to the ignition and while it starts the car, it turns their brain off. Of course, this is assuming they had a brain in the first place which I highly doubt. RAVE: long weekend starts tomorrow, my magazine has been requested by the Road Transport Hall of Fame and my legs hurt from stair climbing yesterday...but it's a good hurt.
WOOHOO! Go Andy on the mag! Now tell me where this tosspot of a driver is so we can hunt him down and hurt him. :>
Thanks Kitty, but Jodi will take care of it...;-) Mind you, just find any Holden Commodore driver in this city and do what you want and I'll be happy!
What, precisely, is a Holden Commodore? we talking cars here? If so I want this lovely little run around. Total CO2 emissions are zero. top speed of 90mph. Launched this month in Geneva. lifecar PHWOAR!
Yes, but it's a Morgan... LOL, pretty cool though, Kitty. With oil prices going the way they are, I imagine these types of cars will get rather more popular and, to be honest, that's a good thing. RANT: Holden Commodore is an Australian-built sedan and wagon. All have at least a V6 but, of course, blokes have to have the V8 and drive them accordingly. Having watched a lot of Top Gear lately, some of the higher-end V8s are being sold in the UK as Vauxhall R8s or soemthing like that. RAVE: What might amaze you is that until recently the only diesel passenger cars offered in Oz were Mercedes and Peugeots! Now, I come from a Peugeot family so have a soft spot for them but the build quality of the 07 range has taken some of the shine off. Fortunately, pick a Euro make and they're here with a diesel option now - all in the past 10 years or so. We're quite taken by the Skoda especially since it is half VW!
Yes, they are consistently in the top 5 for cars people are most satisfied with...and they come in turbo diesel which makes sense given the distances down here. RANT: "Of course, it's Monday"...was my thought as I found myself abusing public transport in general as we drove to work this morning. I mean, how hard is to drive a modern bus these days? I used to drive trucks with a similar gearbox but a 240 tonne all up weight. It's not rocket science. Kharma came to bite me though as I got to work and discovered a squashed, week-old plum in the bottom of my bag. Fortunately, my diary and copy of Down to Earth are wrapped in a callico bag and then a plastic bag but I still had to clean it up...wearing a white shirt...sigh. RAVE: dealing with a client in the DRC who replies to emails faster than clients in Asutralia!
Imagine one of your hardbacks (dust cover removed of course to protect from transport) at risk of being covered in the contents of a squashed plum. Perfect scenario for a horror movie if you ask me!
Hmm, that sounds like the perfect scenario for the second script I'll submit to Hollywood - Book at Risk 2 - The Staining. What was the book?
I hate when you wash your hands like a surgeon and still get grease marks on pages of brand new books! My rant, finally after phoning and writing e-mails to both Motorola and T-Mobile, both say that the other is to blame because the wrong version of Phne tools came with my new phone! So, I cant do most of the usual things with my phone like down load music and photos!
Combine the replies and send them to Motorola and T-Mobile at the same time and hopefully, they'll argue it out themselves1
