I email myself a lot. Sometimes I email from my personal mail to my work mail and vice versa

Very rarely foggy enough to use them around here Na, far too many doing it, I think most are unaware it's illegal.

He only calls me it when he wants to get my attention anyway, he knows it bothers me. Wee psychopath.
It's a sign of him growing up.

My good suit is too tight because I bought it in my twenties and now I'm fat. I wore it to my nan's funeral and did feel like a thuggish wrong'un. To be fair I did buy it for my GBH trial.

I've replaced it with one of Matalan's finest now. It's shite but it fits.

V old primary school friends that continue to walk past you and give you that 'look' like watch ur back. honestly, its so stupid. she told me she didn't want to be friends when I first moved back with a baby in tow by the time both our kids were around primary 3 age and didn't have the confidence to do it face-to-face. it was done by phone the last time I called her. nice. the underlying stuff going about in a small town is what I hate putting up with in my head. she was prob shocked to see me out gone 9:30am on a sunny sat morning.

^^ Someone got my share in the boobies department! I find it annoying that bra makers seem to think women who wear smaller sizes always want padded bras.

When you leave a fairly innocuous comment under an article, and return later to find it's been downvoted into the negative. Especially when all the other comments around it are voted positive. It's enough to make a man paranoid.

I wish my computer would stop being shit, the CPU's maxing out and i've only got a browser running with a few tabs. I've done the usual maintenance and a virus check, killed off some startup programs, uninstalled some shit ... might have to restore the thing

Firefox plugins 'n stuff show as multiple instances. You could try safe mode to see if it's an add-on causing the problem:

NP I'm not sure plugins get disabled, so if safe mode doesn't work you can try deactivating them (Never Activate) in the add-ons menu.

The Internet has gone on my laptop again. I'm using a three mobile dongle. This time it says - your wireless connection has been disconnected or was never connected.

I just love how my laptop does as it pleases. After troubleshooting, checking all the settings, restarting etc etc with zero effect. The bugger just spontaneously was like oh alright then and is back. I mean ???

At last I can actually read stuff properly online. I find it impossible on my phone.

Ok, so i've had a look and decided to just reinstall Firefox following their own step-by-step, idiot-proof guide.
