either you lot have all died in a huge car accident or my list idea isn't working properly. If you get this mail can you email ME personal like and confirm that it got to you. Could you all also send a test message to the list (apparently Jo couldn't get it to work yesterday). I know it works for Mark, me and Paul N so far.

cheers
nic

It works for mee too.

     Got the new DD&HSW single yesterday, did you see my review on

Don't worry Nic, it looks like this List thing has a de-pleberiser inherent in it's make-up, which explains why some people can't get it.

HAHA! Only kidding, i love you all.

Can someone please go and look at my SOLO CAREER website please? I put a counter on it the other day, and it's REALLY DEPRESSING. The worst thing is it's a statistical one, so you can see exactly WHO has been there, which is even worse cos you can't say "wow! four people have been here today!" and kid yrself that it was something other than you reloading it a few times ... i put a couple of hot new choons up there today as well, as if you needed further tempting.

is at http://www.prw.le.ac.uk/dept/personal/mjh/mark/

Nigeypoo, you should be getting the final devamp of the Voon page later today - doing a BIG redo of everything else over the weekend, so Michael & Gary, if there's owt you want changing pleeeease let meeee knowwww.

My page and the lunch page are inaccessible to me - can anyone else get to either??

I could do with knowing this

also am getting a message when trying to reach them 'a network error occured while netscape was recieving data (network error: connection reset by peer)

This means absolutely nothing. Anyone out there who can decipher it?

Good morning everyone - this list is VERY quiet...

I couldn't get through to GeoCities either - but the web can be pretty cheeky in the morning - perhaps try later. What's your URL LooNeil? I don't think I have it in my list of interesting bookmarks.

The "network error..." message means that the server closed the HTTP connection - I suppose there could be any number of reasons for this, but the most likely is that there weren't any packets getting through to your client, so the connection timed out.

Well, it's my and many other peoples' second last day at work today, and this includes Margaret who retires after FORTY SIX years with the company. So.....we've just had an early lunch of lovely fresh samosas, fizzy pop, cobs, dips, doritos, salad and pickled onions. And Margaret had a wooden bench for her garden.

Gary

> And Margaret had a wooden bench

She must have been really hungry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Good one eh? Gosh, 46 years tho, that's almost as long as you've been ALIVE Gary!

I hope you are all still working hard tho, you can relax tomorrow afternoon, but we still have work to do. It's your O Levels next year don't forget, and that'll be the most important life in yr entire educational career, oh yes.

Gary, i have told you before, i am NOT going to be your FAG, no matter how much of those funny milky biscuits you offer.

Aaaah! Aren't you all lovely? The counter on my webpage has DOUBLED since loads of you looked, aaah, am touched deeply. There's also some bloke from IRELAND looking at it - what's that all about then? Cool. Statistical Counters are GRATE.

Also the lovely Niggley Niggley Noo Naa has updated the Voon bit on the Sorted pages, delightful wee scamp that he is. There's much LESS stuff there now, which can only be good.

Tra-la, CHEESE AND PICKLE today, cos am feeling gooood.

saw it again last night

what a neat film! hilarious, PLUS you get to see GRACE JONES running around with very little on, beating the living daylights out of everyone in sight with a big pole and grinning a lot! Garce Jones is kewwwwl.

Anyone that assumes I've got powerpoint 7.0 when in fact i have powerpoint 4.0 and leaves me a load of stuff in powerpoint 7.0 and then locks thier office and goes to scotland at lunchtime when all the other machines in the entire place run powerpoint 3.0 or 4.0 is a CUNT.

What a mergotroid my boss can be. I will GAS HIM!

I will FOX him because he is obviously THE MAN. I will send him a box of MUSELI!!!

H AHA!!

Boing! Boing! wibble!! ninggg!!

Is it HARRRRDDDD!?? Is it easy peasy lemon squeezy?!?

AAahh kneed it for this conferererence in GerManY

I gotta knock me up a gif with a transparrrrenT bacKgRoaUn BABY! and i agootta dew it sooneST innit! Maaan!

yo! homey! represent! anyone got that HOT SEx SeeE ThRouGh GiF InfO if you seNd ittTt to MmmEeEEe and I wiLll allOoW yew to licK My Groin!!

THE KIDS must have transparent GIFS. THE MAN tries to prevent THE KIDS from having too much freedom of I.T which is why THE MAN wants to censor the WWW. THE KIDS can fight back with natty little transparent GIFS.

I didn't go away after all, well I did for a bit, but the meeting didn't last long enough for me to skive the rest of the day so I'm BACK for a few hours. By my reckoning it's only Jo thats having aproblem with this new list thing ... so shall we not worry about it :) only kidding of course. I'll try and sort it.

it's not all work work work

lunch was grate
boots sandwhiches selection wotsit with 1 chicken salad, 1 prawn mayo and 1 blt YUM and then coz i didn't get enough FAT in that I had a tuna pasta salad thang. So overall at lunch I ate a chicken a pig a load of prawns and a TUNA fish.

>pasta salad thang. So overall at lunch I ate a chicken a pig a load of >prawns and a TUNA fish.

I saw a full blown tuna fish down the fishmarket - they are big buggers. one foot thick and 5 feet long

quite amazing when you only ever see it in small tins, you picture something a lot smaller.

Tuna fish are very small, but once they have been BLOWN - they get much bigger. When they are FULLY BLOWN, they grow to 5 feet in length.

I hate word 7 I hate word 7 I hate word 7 especially when it is trying = to be especially helpful and nice and keeps doing amazing magical = helpful thing which are infact completely unhelpful and crap, and rilly = rilly frustrating.

Lunch was a very nice rice and tuna salad made by my mum coz she's = lovely. It's getting very tricky to avoid the gaze of the chocolate = machine.

I have been swimming every night this week so far. But tonight it is = beer. Yes ladies and gennlemen, i shall be swimming in beer!.
