Nah. Due to ZeitIncompetence (which knows few bounds) they're on separate policies.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostAre they on a joint policy? I've got my fleetlet on a multicar policy with Admiral, and I only get one reminder/autorenewal notification.
The fact the CC had lapsed may have sommat to do with it.Comment

Gosh.
I hope no one ever posts any of my crap code on the interweb thing.
I couldn't stand the embarrassment.

In a return to something like normality, I had fish for tea this evening.
The other novelty was the 5 Morrisons doughnuts turning out to be custard filled rather than raspberry (flavour) jam filled.
I was quite taken aback.
Almost as much as when some other comestibles purchased from Morrisons turned out to be filled with apple rather than the raspberry I was expecting.
In an attempt to reduce the vast quantity of milk, I had a Mr Kipling's apple pie with custard (proper Bird's as invented in Swansea, none of this posh stuff).Comment

Back in the day I used to write in FORTRAN.Originally posted by zeitghost View PostGosh.

I couldn't stand the embarrassment.
Which was all well and good until I purchased a z80 cp/m FORTRAN compiler which didn't use proper binary for integer variables but used BCD instead.
Totally fecking useless for my purposes, but there you go.
And some of my code that worked perfectly "well" on a GA minicomputer FORTRAN IV, crashed the Microsoft FORTRAN 77 compiler in flames.
They obviously didn't think that anyone with any sense would use DOUBLE PRECISION quite like that.
