I need some new shoes as they have holes in and when it rains my feet get wet. I went into Brum centre to buy some shoes. Im not paying 55 for a pair of shoes. I can't find cheap half decent shoes anywhere, and I hate the fact that it's really really busy there with people walking around really slowly and looking annoyed as you walk past them fast |

Amazing Paperboy stops delivering, gets £6.93 redundancy But that's not what makes me laugh. What makes me laugh is that his hamster is called 'Splodge', and that the reporter with a sense of humour saw fit to report that. |

My horribly boring day is ended. I am feeling the effects of missing my nap but I am keeping myself going with thoughts of the bottle of Talisker which has been begging me to drink it all week while I have been being strong and saying 'NO! I will not taste your delicious nectar until THE WEEKEND so do not ask it of me again.' As it is now the weekend, I may now drink. I pray I don't have to hear, speak or think of electrical wiring again until Monday. |

If I have an image on a website that I like to change quite often, and it is a jpeg, but as I want to have a special occasion animated gif for a couple of days can't use a jpeg, do I have to try and remember where in the template that image is located, or can I just lazily change the file extension name to .jpg and fool the browser? |

You need to upload the new image to where your site is hosted and update the html file I'm afraid Mimi. |

The missus has just called me. She stopped in our corner shop to buy me some cans as a thank you for doing all of Isabelles night time feeds and changes this week. She asked for 4 cans of lager, the girl asked which ones and as Jemma was busy with her purse and the pushchair said any would do. When she got home she noticed she has got me 4 cans of Lynx Super and is too embarrased to go and ask to change them..... |

Heh, I went to Sainsburys yesterday and I was in the beers and wines section when I happened to notice the 'Sainburys Basics' lager. It was something like 86p, which made me think that it wasn't that cheap. Then I realised that 86p was for a pack of 4. Oh.

If I may intrude into real life for a bit: What do you actually do? I am an apprentice engineer, doing both mechanical and electrical. Despite being 25 I am only in my second year of a four apprenticeship. Oldest apprentice my work has ever had and also the first ever female engineer in my company (in Scotland at least, don't know about elsewhere.) Was a huge lifestyle change and pay cut when I made that decision, let me tell you! All my co-apprentices (all four of them!) are like 18 and stuff, they often seem to think I'm desperatly uncool and I don't think they believe me when I say I'm not.

A train is stuck in Llangynllo, unable to climb the gradient due to slippery rails (falling leaves). And 15 chavs are standing around a flaming bench (that they've ignited) on a station near Rhymney, drinking and enjoying it. So glad I've got the weekend off. edit: AND! A flaming gas main near Merthyr Tydfil. edit edit: AND! The flames from the gas main are higher than the local rooftops. |

I have finished being naughty. On another site there are lots of features where you can share knitting projects, blog feeds, etc. If you like someone's patterns/projects/blogs/posts etc you can click the 'add to friends' button and their 'stuff' will appear in your 'friends activity' page. There are a few threads of people complaining about the term 'friends' or the function. Quote: My definition of a friend is somebody with whom I have had correspondence through one or other of the forums, or who I already know offline. I am not sure I like total strangers counting me as a “friend” - what have I ever done for them? Quote: I recently got friended by someone I don’t know. I’m understanding this is fairly common on Rav, but it put me off a bit. Friend is a fairly strong word. There are not too many people I would use it for. Being defined as one by someone I don’t know is a bit like being told I’m in an intimate relationship with a stranger. I added some of them as friends  Why join a site the purpose of which is to show your projects if you don't want people to see your projects? I have stopped misbehaving now and un-friended them. Misery guts. |
