TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Aye my (wait for it, i haven't done this in a while) ex-girlfriend's house was an old croft and they couldn't get wifi anywhere but the room where the router was. So looks like you'll be moving house.How were the toilet facilities in this old croft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 How were the toilet facilities in this old croft?Nae bad. When we had the cold spell I was afraid for my life as I didn't want to do a shit then have to have them come in with a big bowl of defrosted snow to flush it down with. Luckily they filled it up before I went in.Apart from that and the odd spider making it's way in to the bathroom they were not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Isn't defrosted snow usually called water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Yes. But I was just using the term 'defrosted snow' to give you a bit of backround on this particular water. We had no running water 'cause something had frozen over so we had to defrost snow to put in the toilet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 I will sleep easy this evening knowing the background of that particular volume of water. I may even write a song about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 The amount of dickhead Aberdeen fans who bang on my flat windows as they walk up King Street to every home game, every other weekend, without fail. Glaring in through the windows and shouting inane bollocks. Fuck off. I hope you get fucking relegated. Twats. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 It was particularly bad today, because Rangers are in town, so the plastic fans are out going to the one game a season they are bothered about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 When people take ages to finish their drink after you've decided to not get another round. You're in a group at a bar and decide to move on after the last drink then you're left standing with your coat on waiting for someone to neck their drink. And that person takes forever, sayin things like 'don't rush me' 'I can't down it'... Don't get a last drink if you can't finish it in a decent time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 I hate it when you walk back to your table after buying a pint and everyone has their coats on. However I'm a gentleman and I will down a pint if faced with that situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 To be fair i think most nights that have ended a little too messy for me are from downing drinks and drinking too fast.This is all i needed to read until i realised i had absolutely no interested in reading the rest of your post. Which is actually unusual.Someone's Halloween-ing as Sherlock Holmes this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirsten Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 This may seem like a random question, but do you stay in an old house? I used to live in a pretty old house and the WIFI was bloody useless because of thick stone walls. I overcame the problem by getting an additional router that I took from room to room.I think my it was only built in the early 80s, so I don't think it's the walls. For some reason I can't get online even when I'm right next to the router. I think it's just haunted wifi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattJimF Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 You'd be surprised how tempramental wifi can be.My work deals with hospital residents who have constant issues with the wifi, from getting signals from other blocks fine, but not the wifi router outside the flat, to losing signal when they move their laptop a millimeter. Unfortunately we just offer remote support which is completely crap for all involved and between the NHS trust and the comapny we do the support for, neither is willing to pay to get a hard-wired solution in place.

They can be a bit temperamental (i.e don't work) in situations where it's a spur off ring mains though and not a continuous circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirsten Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Just got shafted out of £4.09 for a bottle of Desperados in the Prince. What the hell has happened to this place? Thought I'd misheard so handed over my tenner waiting for the change to prove me to be a deaf sod-hat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Adverts for TV shows/films that use snippets of dialogue from the TV show/film to react to the voiceover.Voiceover: "This week, a double bill of That Cunt Show"Snippet: "Woah. That sounds amazing!"Voiceover: "Back to back episodes exclusive to Channel so-and-so"Snippet: "You cannot be serious?"Voiceover: "Totes serious. So get it watched you big bastard"Snippet: "But when on earth is this even happening??????"Voiceover: "Tonight. Yeah. 10pm or something. Tune in, aye?"Snippet: "Shit yeah. I can't wait to watch that television show that you're advertising"Or something.Don't do it. It's fucking gay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
