So Kiss while your lips are still read while he's still silent, rest while bosom is still untouched, unvieled on another hair, while the hands still without a tool drown into eyes while they're still blind, love while the night still hides the withering dawn.
That's dialogue?

Him: So is this the point I sweep you off your feet? :wub:
Her: No this is where I beat you to a pulp for ignoring my repeated brush-offs :boxing:
Him: That's not very feminine
Her: I'm a voilent b***h!
Him: *sheepishly walks off*

Everyone else as the conversation progresses: :giggle:... :laugh:... :rofl:

I love my other half, she's always ready to get physical. The problem is it's not the sort of physical men are expecting.

Here for rides.
A N Other: Are they speaking French with Yorkshire accent?
Me: :scratch::blink::unsure:

a few minutes later

Me: Do you mean the Yorkshire policeman going to Denmark?
A. N. Other: :blink::wacko:
I've met several Catalan police officers who speak English with a broad Yorkshire accent having been taught by my cousin who is employed by the government there to teach them. Appaz it goes down well with some English tourists, but not so much with the ones from Lancashire.

I recognise that house - Bayleaf, at the Weald and Downland Museum. Very nice.
sure is I love it! :biggrin: going there again sometime soon
All our low energy bulbs (both at NT's house and my flat) seem to be lasting forever. We've got the six we took out of the bedroom uplighters, and no idea what to do with them - they work fine but all the other fittings are already low energy! I've got low energy bulbs I brought from my previous place 8 years ago, and they were 2 or 3 years old then.

I bet the garden will be stunning then. I think if I had the space and time I'd like a knot garden with little box hedges, but to grow veg in all the beds.
my mum and dad are too busy running a 5 man family owning pigs a dog and a cat and running 2 nurseries to plant up and maintain a knot garden! they don't sit there in their big armchairs ordering servants about as much as they would wish to :sad:
So Kiss while your lips are still read while he's still silent, rest while bosom is still untouched, unvieled on another hair, while the hands still without a tool drown into eyes while they're still blind, love while the night still hides the withering dawn.
you keep saying that to your self
and you keep thinking you are normal! :tongue:

Me : what have you done to your head?

Colleague : I found a hat in the shed. Put it on and a hibernating hornet stung me.

Me: :biggrin::laugh:

Colleague : It aint funny, I collapsed on the kitchen floor. My wife was worried I was going into ANOREXIC shock.

Me: :giggle::rofl::giggle::rofl::giggle::rofl::giggle::rofl: Not unless she was going to take your crisps away .

Me (to an installation engineer): The install specs say the disk shelfs start at U16 & go to U28
IE: But they're really heavy, I'll never get them up their on my own
Me: That's why we asked for two installation engineers. Anyway, if you think the disk shelfs are heavy you've not tried to lift up the UPSs have you?
IE: No.
Me: Have a go!
IE: :ohmy:
Me: Want a hand?
IE: Err... :blush: Yeah
....

Me: So this shelf in the top? (I lift a 45-50kg disk shelf up to the U24-28 position solo)
IE: :eek: WHAT THE ...

The sad thing is I understand and empathise with the install engineer. I used to do that for Compaq in my dark distant past.

I have some sympathy for the lack of second IE but not stacking the disk shelfs high enough is just sloppy.. it's not like we wrote up a very specific install specification which included EXACTLY where equipment needs to be installed & what connections etc. will be provided for connecting to our network & power systems, where they're located and labelled everything very carefully... oh yeah we did

Oh that sounds like ACF training... been there done that :tongue:

A disk shelf is a chassis holding a large number of hard drives to be attached to some kind of server. We're looking at 36 3.5" drives per 4U shelf (about 100TB)
UPS, wikipedia has your answer
As for a 'U' take a look at wikipedia as well
