I preferred Zero.

I preferred Zero.

Don't remember that one. I remember C&VG (computer & video games) where you'd spent hours typing in numbers into a computer that played a rubbish game that you'd complete in 5 mins. Halcyon days :smile:

Just googled it: 1989 - 1992. I think by then I had an Amiga, but I don't remember the magazines.

Roots Hall Car park. Popped in to pick up my Newcastle tickets and you will be happy to know that the surface is just as bad as it was at the end of last season. Whilst there I couldn't resist a quick peek at the pitch, which is looking very, very good. I couldn't see any material difference in the stands.

Did you notice all the hardcore has disappeared from that area at the top of the car park? I think there are plans for this bit which will make it quite popular.

Same for me a couple of hours ago, thought I was driving through some desert sand dunes!

Microsoft Windows 10 and it's insistence on showing me new wallpaper pictures before I log in. I ignore them but it is bloody annoying all the same.

You can switch that off you know.

Not necessarily "hacking" but we've got a colleagues young son working with us and he's got absolutely zero social skills - doesn't even say "hello" or "goodbye" and looks down at the floor and mumbles on the rare occasions he talks to me.

Which reminds me, some of the other teachers at the EOI,Sabadell (where I'm currently doing an intensive summer course), can't even be bothered to say hello or goodbye when you greet them.

Shermans (and Catalans) seem to be the worst offenders.

Perhaps hacking is appropriate if he's spent the last 3 days using his other skills on your bank account.

BT/Openreach. Internet has been dropping out, and the Openreach engineer came around and basically ripped out our internet, which I guess is one way to solve the dropout issue...:angry:

Pretty much everything!

Nice and warm evening, and it's lovely to leave the doors and windows open and what do the neighbours do? Have bonfires like they're at Glastonbury. ****tards.

Are you sure he's not autistic? Sounds classic behaviour.
