Tea? (Part 4)

[Saluki]

Evening all. Just back from my noon appointment with Leigh the guitar teacher. Sun is shining so ride in a bit.
@classic33 can you not play DVDs on your computer?

Could do, but I'd be too close then.
5 &1/2" floppy discs still in widespread use?

 

[Saluki]

Sounds about right. @ScotiaLass and I would of course be looking at the bums of the men in front. All done in the best possible taste you understand

I could help her, in case there were too many nice bums for one woman to ogle in one go

Really? I haven't seen a 5 1/2" floppy for a very long time! Not since one of the back offices tried storing it in a handy place by sticking it to the filing cabinet with a fridge magnet. Must have been 1998 or so.

I've tape & zip drives as well. Just in case.

I love a bit of retro, me but I really hated tape drives. They would spend hours loading up only to fall over completely in the last 10 seconds. Ah, fond memories (not) of my Amstrad CPC464 (might have been 646, one of the two anyway. It was a while back)

If I have to use the indoor trainer, I watch this on my tablet perched on the handle bars for inspiration.

Do you ever get dropped as you are not pedalling fast enough

The tapes cost around £40 each. About twice as wide as a cassette tape, but smaller overall.

Lucky for some stephec

I came over on Tuesday to do a job that was supposed to take two days, but I finished it in a day.

I've got another job on Thursday and Friday so had myself a free day.

On Wednesday morning I had a leisurely breakfast and sorted all my paperwork out, then got the bus in to town in the afternoon.

A bit of wandering up and down O'Connell Street and along the Liffey, then a couple of pints before back to the hotel.

You get the good days and the bad days, and considering how many bad days we get I'll always make sure I make the most of the good ones.

Morning lovely people!! and @stephec

I can't believe you think I'm extra lovely.

Or a special case?

Has anyone been watching Great Canal Journeys with Prunella Scales and Timothy West??

We only put it on record 'cos they were visiting the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies which is just along the road, but I have to say I've really enjoyed the whole series - they remind me of my mum and dad somehow, though I'm not into the "luvvie/darling" bit. I suppose as actors that comes naturally.

Most of you lot are pensioners so you're bound to have watched it!!

Is it a repeat, I'm sure I watched it a while ago?

with



Im not a pensioner, and I haven't watched it. Doesn't prunella scales have alzheimers?

I used to quite like Prunella in Fawlty Towers.
