Got the hard drive out, and three sticks with 1GB each of DDR (is that RAM?) Dance!

Although I don't know what that will be any good for, as I don't think this sort of RAM fits into laptops Rolling Eyes

As it was bought in about 2005-6-7 or so, its probably pointless keeping it so I'm chucking the case out and left the motherboard in, fuck it. The local Steptoe might like it.

Its probably got a good graphics card but I am sick of poking about in its innards now, and to be fair I have learnt quite a lot about things I never got round to learning before.

(apparently that is what I need... Thinking )

Crikey that's a bit flash. I have ordered the standard thing as I am not planning to do this on a regular basis.

have an abundance of tomatoes in the garden this year. made a tomato soup from scratch and its bloody delicious.

Nice one!

One of my mates who moved from London to Wiltshire is enjoying his second summer of vegetable garden success with lots of very nice tomatoes, and he brought me some potatoes and zucchini as well. I made a really yummy frittata with it.

I had to instruct him on the correct size of zucchini as I don't like them too big Laughing - but everything really did taste better.

He also gave me a squash but I think its one of those stupid white ones. I was hoping he had done the orange ones that taste more like pumpkin.

Apparently he's also doing aubergines, which is rather interesting as (when we were an item - years ago), he wouldn't even have known what one was, except his now-girlfriend is mostly vegetarian - so no doubt she had some input into the matter Laughing

Spirit restaurant in Amsterdam - food is priced by the weight of what you have on the plate.

You can have a plate of desert if you are a fat fcuk and pay for that or you can have a few nibbles and pay far less.

All you want to pay for buffet food is a concept more UK restaurants should get behind.
