Evening all
It's evening time, it got dark ridiculously early, and the day thread was making my internet slow.

How are we all this fine evening?

Evening
I've got bits of an Acorn Electron all over my living room floor.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Mon 24 Nov 2008, 17:46, Reply)

Well, that seems perfectly normal
But that may just be me.

Are you well?
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Mon 24 Nov 2008, 17:47, Reply)

Your keyboards antics
Continue to amuse and annoy me.

Are you well dear ancrenne?
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Mon 24 Nov 2008, 17:53, Reply)

I'm good thanks
Ancrenne.

I've just scored an Electron from Freecycle. The first thing Mr Bin does with things like this is take them apart, wash them, and then put them back together again.

I've got a friend coming over for dinner in a bit so I'd better start cooking really.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Mon 24 Nov 2008, 17:59, Reply)

Strange ancrenne
You tried reinstalling the keyboard drivers on the laptop?

I'm not bad, I seem to have spent a lot of today travelling to and from uni, and have lots of work to do tonight. Pizza time before that though. What an evening it's going to be. I'll probably be on here a lot...

edits - You've succeeded at freecycle? My getting drums off there still isn't going well.

This is the first thing
I've got from freecycle.

I've given stuff away before, but only to people who can spell and punctuate.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Mon 24 Nov 2008, 18:05, Reply)

True Mrs Bin, true
I'll be popping in on and off I would imagine. Mostly just working on my design project, so setting goals, coming up with a design specification. Fun stuff really. I look forward to getting on to the actual design stage.

Anyone got fun plans for tonight?

Ancrenne
Is this a PC or Mac you are having problems with?

I assume you have done a full power down?

*edit* When you plug in the external keyboard, does the built in one deactivate?
If not, my guess would be something stuck under the key.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Mon 24 Nov 2008, 18:07, Reply)

Switch it off
take out the battery, count to ten, power back up.

Here at bin towers the Acorn has been re assembled and is about to be fired up!
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Mon 24 Nov 2008, 18:13, Reply)

Well
I can't remember how to re-install the drivers, but if you drop someone like Ethel or Sam-I-Am a message they would probably be-able to help, or be-able to suggest what else might be wrong.

Hey BK and bill
Unfortunately I don't have much choice in how cold I get. My Dad needs my help and seeing as he's running me around to and from work at the moment it'd be incredibly rude of me to say no!

Still, I'm feeling much less grumpy than earlier and my outlook on life is less bleak too so that's good!

Time to go get some noms then make this delivery. Laters folks.

If I can I'll end up getting there about 5 too. If not I'll be there about quater to six.

Have you made any plans for the day or are you just going to see what happens?

It's about 30 seconds from the Grey and easier to find to boot so you should be fine.

In other news I just accidently signed a text to my boss with "Xoxo" and to my friend "Regards, BDC" I should really be more careful when sending multiple texts at the same time!

Myself I've been smoking 20-40 a day since the month I started aged 20, and quickly saw no option but to inform my poor clean-living parents that they'd just have to get used to the idea I'm a smoker.

Kaol.. give us a myspace.. I'm pretty obsessive about my music and am very curious, but will refrain from commenting too much if I don't like it - the scummiest job I ever had was as a music critics despite being good at it.. I couldn't live with myself.

but having just popped over to Eddie's website it seems his gigs are focussd solely on London village.

I hate it when people do that. I'm more than a little pissed off that Depeche Mode are only playing 1 UK gig next year at the O bloody 2; the furthest north they've ventured since 1994 is bloody Sheffield. To which I went and it was awesome, but that's not the point.

To performers that do this: You've got fans all over the UK you know; we pay your fucking wages through buying every bloody release you've ever made. At least acknowledge the fact by venturing north of the Watford gap every now and again.

@Becky..
..I've been hopelessly in love with music ever since hitting puberty, before it became cool to list your favorite shit on myspace as an adolescent ritual. I was the only 13 yeay old in my school into the Velvet underground.. and five years later the only 18 year old. Nothing beats music around here.

That Woodside guy.. I remember when he was just "Woodside Industries" and gave me a hard time off the back of my first /talk post. Also I think he's been in the newsletter a few times. I doubt he's actually living with his parents and getting them to make him cocoa as per pooflake's put-down. I reackon he's actually quite comfortable in a cushy job in a big city and nice apartment with a passing resemblance to Nathan Barley's lifestyle where he doesn't have to think, as his post was totally thoughtless suggesting a facile power complex born of getting where he is by being a cunt and realising he can get away with it.
