    I can't think why, but for some reason that posting - in conjunction with the .sig - makes me think of ships called Explorer and current affairs.
    Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

        So, once on the pavement, he turned left and walked the 600 yards back to HIS office and sent a global email saying exactly what he thought about everybody and everything.

        That was funny!

          Congrats, Nick - still trawling through the rest, but saw your 1000 elsewhere and had to quote it.

          He's done a really good job with it, hasn't he? It's like a certificate. An excellent piece of work.

          Mind you, at some point he'll twig that hex is absent...
          Ah, but 512 in hex is 200, and I liked the purity of expressing it with only 1s and 0s.

          I could have done something silly like 10 in base 512, but that's too trivial to be of any real value.

          So I restricted it to binary, octal, and decimal, as they are all numeric bases I've actually used when entering data into a computer

            Next time really impress us and use base 13

                Hmm, nothing on telly... time to catch up with some of the multitude of still-cellophaned DVDs, I think.

                Or maybe carry on with disc 2 of UFO

                    There are people who say that I should develop a female personality as well.
                    Then I could go and F**k myself.
                    I'm hurt

                      Actually, the thought of Carling guzzling is making me peckish...

                      Is 14:30 too late to call it breakfast?

                      Sausages and bacon it is
