isn't thay what wimmin do? Have a shower so they're completely clean, then sit in a hot bath.
I tried having a soak in the bath once. Got bored within ten minutes and got out. Never again.

I know many people who enjoy baths but have a shower afterwards. Myself, I find a bath boring but do need them occasionally in order to remove the concrete skin on my feet that are an occupational hazard of working on boats in bare feet. I then have a shower afterwards because there isn't much appeal to sitting in your own soup. I could use a footbath but that would be too metrosexual.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Shower FTW! My body would need to be in a right physical state for me to even consider a bath...

ive had a photo of that from my local morrisons for about a month now. AFAIK they cant trademark it because it belongs to the community, same thing as when a company called Futuremark (they make PC benchmarks) tried to trademark the word "pwned"

I think that's a bit odd. The derivation of 'Om Nom Nom', especially in reference to eating, is surely that it came from the sound the Cookie Monster in Sesame Street makes when devouring cookies with gusto. I think The CTW would have a real claim to ownership of the phrase, regardless of what 'the community' has done with it. Jon

i was basing that off what happened with Futuremark, of course it all depends on where 'om nom' comes from, and if the company actually try to trademark it.

I learned that MBNA (I've got a Play.com Visa card) would like me to go to their utterly retarded website and tell them that, yes, I'd still like to receive paper bills. They're handy for getting info quickly, means I don't have to do my own printouts or remember to log in to check my statement every month, means I don't have to visit aforementioned utterly retarded website that I can never remember my password for, and that they struggle to send out password reminders for Also, either Santander* or O2 have fcuked up my O2 direct debit somehow. I utterly detest having to deal with companies these days - funnily enough, that was why I set up the DD * Santander, what an absolute bunch of bankers...

The MBNA website doesn't need to send out password reminders, because you can check it there and then on the 'site itself. I know this because I have a an MBNA account and I've done it. (8+)

Hmm, it has any time I've went near the disaster zone... Maybe it's something to do with the link from their emails

Some very random connections between the companies I work for. My boss's boss is good friends with the HR boss at the company I'll be leaving soon. Bizarre!

You see, this is how the whole World can fit into an Asylum. It's not as big as we think it ought to be. (Ignore me. I'm having one of those slightly off-kilter days. It amuses me occasionally to look at life more askance than usual.)

Nope not going to ignore you as you're making perfect sense to me. Have you had a nice cuppa and a cookie yet? A bit of comfort makes the world seem a better place. Talking of small worlds a lady who ran a Belgian restaurant in Spain went to school with my Mum's niece in Ostende. What were the chances of them meeting?
