There appears to be a leak somewhere in my bathroom. It's very slow and I can't tell whether it's coming from the bath or the toilet. but it managed to saturate half of the floor mat round the base of the loo in about 12 hours.

The water is seeping under the layer of tiles that the previous tenant laid over the top of the lino underneath so I can't see where it's coming from. When you step on them you can hear a squelch noise and a little water bubbles up between the gaps.
Looks like a phone call to the landlord is in order as this is definitely his job to fix.

The whole cuban embargo is ridiculous and is pointless.

Not just that but all the cookies they leave. I watch the cookies on my iMac but dread to think the numbers tracking cookies on iPads and iPhones.

I would have thought that kebabs are the safest thing to eat, at least it is lamb. Anything else and you are taking a chance that it is horse. :lol:

Horse won't make you sick unless it's bad, like any other meat.

Firefox spell check. I mean, it's pretty good really apart from it's poor heuristics and the way it handles abbreviations like etc.

It wants to add a full stop even though there is already a full stop. If you recursively auto-corrected you would (never) end up with an infinite number of dots.......... . . . .........

Horse meat is not the problem it is the fact that fraudulent sales of Bute contaminated horse meat has entered the food chain. Horse meat is probably leaner and healthier than beef. My thought was that the horse meat that has entered the food chain is not all cleared for human consumption. Many want to be sure of what they are actually eating.

My first thought was that Firefox autocorrect underlined Firefox.

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