Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
A rather limp member called Reliant Dongle, not King Dong who has always been up to the job.........Went into the store in Calingut, opposite the two chemists near Arson Shoes. I asked him why i couldn't get any speeds over 58 Kbps even at 2am in the morning. His answer was its only 2G. I should have got Ideal., which is 3G.I then said but you sold it to me on the understanding you could get up to 3.1Mbps......He said it was possible to get 3.1 Mbps in Mumbai some times......I felt like hitting him in the mouth or shoving the Dongle where the sun never shines...The bas**rd was selling Apple I-Pads with Reliant sims knowing they were absolute crap at down loading anything at all.

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
What possible difference to anyone can it make by someone choosing a block of flats or pretty much anything else for that matter as there avatar? It surely can't be viewed as offensive.
I actually like sooty, takes me back to my childhood and as I approach my second childhood it becomes more and more appealing!

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
It is not a block of flats. It is a small German market town Christmas market, historic buildings lit up and a Christmas tree but it does not show up as well as it could as it is so small. As for Sooty, I was behind him on stage once years ago and he sort of lost his magic. I was about 8 at the time. I will change it!

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
This Reliance Dongle Internet connector is so slow that it would be quicker and easier to leave a message on MSN Word, disconnect it from the electricity, fold my laptop up closed, and then use it as a friz bee to deliver the message !
Reliance is similar to a stuttering clapped out Reliant Robin Car in performance.I suspect you would get more reliability from a Reliant Robin too and its only got 3 wheels.3.1 MBPS......who ever dreamt that up deserves the Nobel Prize for Creating Writing and The Annual Brass Neck Award for brazen lying.My old Amstrad double disc 64 Kb with a 20 Mgb HD on dial up in the early 90s was faster than this load of rubbish.Second Class post in the UK is faster than this.
Also i have just read that Christopher Hitchens is dead.One of my favourite authors in the 90s before he went over to the other side and kissed Goerge Bush`s backside...Best book."The Missionary Position." His expose on Mother Theresa and what went on in Calcutta and where all the money went-to The Vatican and not the poor in Calcutta.

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
The "soddin" monkeys!!!!!
I`ve got an enormous chickoo tree full of ripe fruit!!
How do the big buggers know when I`m out?
They`ve recently broken 2 of my lovely 15ft yellow bamboos and make such a mess taking 1 bite out of a chickoo and then throwing it to the floor!!
If i`m in they disappear pretty sharpish as they don`t like the sound of the air rifle.....I`m sure I`m not a good enough aim to hit them....but I am improving!!!!!!!

Re: WHAT ****** YOU OFF TO-DAY.
Broadband connection went off at 2:00pm sharp yesterday and stayed off. On again this a.m. and since local BSNL don't work Sundays I'm guessing it was done centrally. Something to do with SG's visit???

All I have got to look forward to now is worry and cold bloody winter. I don't possess any winter clothes!
