    I was surprised to get into the top 10%. I conclude that the vast majority of the over 200,000,000 profiles never, hardly ever, or extremely infrequently, get visited and that those of us who meet new people on a reasonably frequent basis get viewed a little more often.

    Well done! Hopefully the French will be as hopeless as they were in their first two games and we'll be on our way to a Grand Slam!

    Its Wales in Cardiff that I fear. They would do anything to piss on our chips.

    No doubt the roof will be left open and they will be praying for rain.

    Fingers crossed

    The random disclosure thread.

    Why do people think it's suitable to use the photocopier area at work as a form of social catch-up? FFS, it's beside my desk and I don't give a crap about what you're all doing over the weekend. Some of us are being paid to actually work.

    Yeah, and while I'm at it, they all use the same opener: How are you?, or How are things? The same whenever they phone someone up. No-one cares, no-one really wants to know how you are, and that's not the reason for the call either. Just get to the point! It's completely false. It really is pathetic. And those being asked are just as bad - they always answer 'Not bad. How are you?' Be true to yourself FFS, and be honest. If they don't want an honest answer, don't bloody well ask. And don't feign false interest back either, returning the same pathetic question.

    It really winds me up.

    About the only thing. I know about women is that they're never bloody happy.

    My wife's Moroccan Hair Oil (Trademark!) smells just like the lovely scent they pump into The Venetian hotel in Las Vegas.

    I've never smelled this scent anywhere else, yet here it is now...in my living room as my wife is resting her head near me.

    Some of the casino resorts do actually sell small spray bottles of the same air conditioner spray that they use.

    My understanding is that they use a combination of high volume extractor fans and circulated scent to balance the lure of the hotel for both smokers and non-smokers. Most of the ones i have been in seem to use either vanilla or coconut ( or both... ).

    Brilliant. Some time ago, just as his speech was coming in it started to hail and our son had never seen this before, but he did know about the moon and it was just dusk, so he called the hail "moon nuts". Still to this day we call them moon nuts.
