18:37.28TarragonI assume everyone is hung-over from last nights festivities
18:45.45zacharyTarragon: Not everyone. :-)
18:46.23TarragonYou are exempt on grounds on the baby.
18:46.45TarragonHow was the parade?
18:46.59zacharyWhere?
18:47.30TarragonParliament to Piccadilly today. Started at noon
18:47.43zacharyOpps.
18:48.09Tarragonhttp://www.londonparade.co.uk/
18:53.42zacharyI'll have to put that down on the calendar for next year.
18:55.53TarragonSo far all the resolutions I made last night - Do more things, be organised, etc I have failed
19:05.52zacharyIt has only been 19 1/4 hours into the new year, hardly counts as failing.
19:06.41TarragonYes but I know I am not likely to even make a start before weekend
19:08.18zacharyLack of effort.
19:08.48zacharyWell mine is loose some weight. So I'm cooking a nice and faty beef roast for tonight.
19:08.54TarragonWillpower.
19:09.02Tarragon:-)
19:09.26zacharyI just need to cut out half the pasta. :-(

20:15.17TarragonEvening dankolb
20:15.24dankolbHappy New Year
20:15.29dankolbHow's it going?
20:15.30Tarragon:-)
20:15.44TarragonStill working
20:15.57dankolbYou're always working :)
20:16.21dankolbOh for fucks sake. Mozilla is really crap stability-wise
20:16.35TarragonYes but Linux is fun. I did take 30 minutes off today to play with a train set.
20:16.41dankolb:)
20:16.57TarragonWhat version of Moz?
20:17.29TarragonYes but BeOS is not developed any more and no one will talk to me about SMSQ/E
20:17.35dankolb:)
20:17.44dankolb1.1a - both for FreeBSD and OS X
20:17.53dankolbWhat's SMSQ/E?
20:18.52dankolbARG. And the web pages I had open don't even exist in the history
20:18.57dankolbibot insult mozilla
20:19.13TarragonSMSQ/E is the replacement OS for my Sinclair QL
20:19.54TarragonI am running 1.1 and seems stable to me.
20:19.55dankolbBollocks. 18Mb. Must wait until ADSL in enabled
20:20.03dankolbCool :)
20:21.09TarragonSimilar to the way PC's have changed from XT's with cassette tape - QL's have. We normally run Linux on them but I also have the QL emulator under Linux.
20:21.36TarragonOh and I still go to the local QL user group every month.
20:21.47dankolbCool :)

20:33.07JensonBefore I used the net and spellcheckers so much I could speak English...I blame MS for ever realasing MSWord
20:33.11zacharyGuess that would be simalar to American. English, but abused and misused.
20:33.13Jensonblah blah murb
20:33.24Jensonzachary: I speak American lol
20:34.08murbirc is  good for bad spelling
20:34.21JensonWe saw people stuck in the floods round here.....mind you we were driving around little villages
20:34.25murbgoogle is good for finding alternative spellings
20:34.28zacharyno its knot!

20:37.59zacharymurb: Great penguin!
20:38.02JensonI probably don't need anymore food mind you
20:50.53TarragonErmmm this will sound really bad but - SO is cooking.
20:51.06dankolbNothing wrong with that :)
20:51.36TarragonNah that does not sound too bad. OK for the last 17 years So has cooked.
20:51.46Jenson:)
20:51.54dankolbFood's always better when someone else prepares it
20:52.03dankolbPlus it gives more time with computers
20:52.04TarragonOK truth - I have never cooked.

21:01.10highburyapplejelly is nice with Roast Lamb
21:01.22highburybut its very hard to find in the shops
21:03.11zacharyhighbury: Which one the applejelly or the lamb?
21:04.15highburyapplejelly silly, you can pick up lamb fresh from the side of the motorway
21:04.26zacharylol
21:04.32highburyhandier to fit in the boot than a cow
21:05.57highburyyou can get apple and mint jelly, but I don't like mint much, so far the only place I've ever seen apple jelly is Fortnum and Mason's, so its not something I get often :-/
21:06.36zacharyIt can't be that hard to make.
21:06.52zacharyapple juice, pectin and a few spices.
21:09.05highburytrue, one of my aunts used to make it, and I have an apple tree in the garden. Perhaps next year...

23:33.48JensonI learnt it from Slack
23:33.49Jensonlol
23:34.14skuggi _should_ have known it, but i was completely blank
23:34.40dankolbIt happens
23:34.53dankolbThere's often stuff I should know, and forget it just when I need it

23:41.35cupishi Jenson
23:41.42resudaedJenson: on the most part was fun ... a little too close to home though
23:42.21dankolbYeah, passable.
23:42.51skuggJenson, the latter half of your statement is a bit ambiguous though; you find it hard to resist his request? can you just muster the ability to resist out of consideration for a particular person or are you just sarcastic? :)
23:43.22Jensonskugg: I'm resisting so as not to hurt someone who knows I love him, he knows who he is :)
23:43.57skuggi see. in that case i won't ask you for one :D
23:44.23Jensonskugg: Feel free to ask, just don't expect to get.
23:44.31resudaedskugg: credit cards accepted
23:44.42skuggeye69, i think you can get 80GiB seagate barracuda disks for about 80 quid...
23:45.11skuggJenson, 'free speech' eh? :)
23:45.20eye69skugg: I guess those are supposed to be good?
23:45.37skuggeye69, that i know nothing about. the name is cool though
23:45.44eye69skugg: Heh.
23:45.49JensonYeah like 'free love' but I couldn't really say you wouldn't get it for free without sounding like a slut
23:45.50eye69skugg: I will check saturday
23:45.51skuggyou have to google it up yourself :)
23:46.43skugg... or so my geekcode claims.
23:46.49skuggmost people disagree
23:46.55skugg(i think)
23:47.55cupisyou'll have to make do with that :)
23:49.29resudaeddoes anyone have any ISA network cards spare?
23:49.37cupisnot spare
23:49.51resudaed10baseT
23:50.00eye69skugg: Would those disk only be obtainable on saturdays?
23:50.00dankolbNope
23:50.17eye69resudaed: Might have one
23:50.53skuggeye69, i saw them at the fairs, but the person selling them might have dealership elsewhere. I don't know. I think they had a 160GiB variant too by the way.
23:51.03skuggask john hearns, he got one.
23:51.20resudaedeye69: that'd be really helpful, that only leaves me 1 more to find
23:51.42resudaed(I think my cards are well and truley screwed)
23:55.36eye69resudaed: Found a 509
23:57.43resudaedeye69: perfect ... that's one of the cards that is currently fscked
