In the end I didn't go today -- too much work on (day job/college/comic work), so sorry if anyone turned up there hoping to see me, and I'm happy for those people who turned up hoping not to see me.

Might still get down there tomorrow - but probably not.

Transfer your debt to a 0% interest credit card and cancel that one.

I don't really see the problem with putting things that are commonly available on to ebay and making a profit. Okay, it's not exactly 'rare' but he's not really misrepresenting it, clearly the bidders want to buy it and and he wants to sell. For a time my dad was selling ?5 notes (weird portrait orientated, made of plastic but commonly available from any bank in NI) on ebay for a tenner a throw to coin collectors in England who'd no easy way of getting the note - short of hopping on a ferry. He stopped when other people started doing the same thing and the average price dropped below ?7 (this was a few years ago, I think there's another guy doing it again and this time he's getting press coverage). It's all supply and demand kids. (Or, as my dad puts it: a thing is only worth as much as someone will pay for it)

It's great. Although I feel all dirty from the number of times they use the c**t word. It's a lot.

hey! The liferaft look is in. Granted, mostly for liferafts, but that's not the point.

WinZip has a 30day trial (and will work beyond that). WinXP and Mac OS X have built in Zip support (right-click, Add to Archive). And a quick search on google will turn up hundreds of applications :)

You won't want to go in the sewers again (as if you ever did) (do I get extra points for every sequel?)

Resevoir Strontium Dogs

Shako, Rattle and Roll
(From the http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111147/'>IMDB made for TV movie which I only grabbed cus I wanted to get Shako in one)

Two young girls start a band and open up a nightclub in town where the local kids can hang out and stay out of trouble... until they're all viscously attacked and eaten by a giant polar bear.
