Nice, I'm owed something like £600 from working April to August and overpaying tax, got to wait until the end of the tax year though

Yeah, they're great, must resist the urge to frame a repayment cheque rather than cashing it in

Is anyone else fed up of waiting for google-analytics.com? It seems these days every time a web page it taking ages to load, it waiting for google-analytics.com in the status bar. Why do non google sites need it anyway?

I use NoScript in Firefox to block it, though I'm not really sure how much impact it has either way

Google Analytics is a suite of tools used by webmasters/webdevs to track usage of their sites, and produce usage statistics (Browsers, locations, busy times, etc), and is included by embedding a small javascript script in each page, so I guess it could be blocked pretty easily.

I have added google-analytics (and most other Google sites) to the list of sites which cannot run scripts (NoScript add-in for Firefox)...

£22 lighter after being in at the doctors today, what did I get for that?
1 Piece of a4 paper from my doctor with a few lines explaining my illness to my uni
£22!!!
I'd expect it printed on £5 or £10 notes for that, and it's VERY unlikely my uni will reimburse me despite them being the ones that wanted it!

Apparently the NHS can charge for doctors notes to explain absence, from £22 to £34 if they choose to charge. I presume if I was in full time employment I wouldn't have been charged, however I'm not, so was.
