I don’t know how many people here use Chrome or Firefox, but if you do this free add-on may interest you (recommended by the BBC’s technology programme Click).

It allows you to collapse multiple open tabs into a single tab, saving memory use.

I found this the other day, Pinky and the Brain meet The Beatles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?…..d5s9FNMVtY

The episode ends at 11:26, then there’s another but Jim, Steve, Fred and Bongo don’t appear.

I also found some references, at 1:34 there’s something which says Maxwell and at 2:05 Rev #9 is writen in the blueprints.

What clipboard?

So as not to derail another thread, what do you mean “What clipboard?”.

You walk around the Apple Rooftop with it! Your instructions from the mods noted, and our food and drink orders taken! Is that why I’m waiting so long for my banana cider, because you don’t really have a clipboard?

You’re not kidding! @Ahhh Girl is the latest reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Sam Spade, Philip Marlowe, Lew Archer… It’s spooky how she finds things out about you and other people, and finds clues and solves riddles. The KGB and the CIA are nothing compared to her.

I’ve often thought being a librarian for the CIA would be really, really cool.

I just meant that I didn’t want AG to see it so I was acting as if it didn’t exist.

I showed you exactly what clipboard if you clicked the spoiler over there. ahdn_george_06

And if there are ever any food and drink orders on my clipboard they’re that of the mods, I assist them. I only brought you your banana cider a few times out of common courtesy not because I have to! I worked very hard for my position as clipboard holder and won’t be demeaned by the likes of you! a-hard-days-night-john-1

Design the BB house kitchen.

I still wish someone would create a game where a person could listen to the first few seconds of Beatles songs and then guess which one it is.

I always find it interesting when the weather forecast says dry outside when the rain is absolutely thumping it down as it is currently.

@HeyTrud

On my way back from Glasgow, I connect through Heathrow. I’ve connected through there before. One piece of advice, if you connect through there, schedule plenty of time. Most of the flight options only allowed for 1 hour and 35 minutes. I picked the option that gave me about 4 hours.

Football has finished so put on American Football from Wembley where it was a break so the commentators were discussing the game. Back to the game for seven seconds where there is one kick down the pitch and a catch before they stop and adverts come on. SEVEN SECONDS!!!

They keep feckin’ stopping for drinks, hugs and a chat. No wonder they serve beer at the games.

I’ve never tried those American sweets- I think the only American things I’ve ever had were Doritos, Cheetos (which you can’t get in Ireland- last time I had them was in Spain about 5 years ago-yumyum) and Hershey’s chocolate (which tastes awful that I got up North). The Irish people they selected are very pale, we’re not all allergic to the sun! 

To talk about the Irish sweets and snacks- they picked Northern Irish Tayto (nooooooooo!) NI Tayto is scheiße compared to the proper kind (interesting fact: It was the first flavoured crisp that wasn’t plain potato flavoured). That and they picked Smokey Bacon, Cheese and Onion is the way to go!

Why are Mikado called Jam Mallows? They might be some “international version” because they’re Jacob’s Mikado are over here and I think they’re mank (but they also have a great song  – just kidding but seriously Kimberely for the win and they aren’t even great)

Turkish Delight is putrid vomit in a bar- never eat it Simba.

Dib Dabs- are great for getting a sugar buzz and crash, it’s actually nice and does look like cocaine.

‘Blood sausage’ is actually called ‘Black Pudding’ round here and I’ve never eaten it but the majority of people love it.

 

In other news Billy Connolly is on Columbo- yay!

Black Pudding is lovely when battered, fried, served with chips and bought from a chip shop.

‘Murder With Too Many Notes’ is a good episode of Columbo but, as with many of the episodes from the 80’s onwards, there are problems, one being taking the audience and treated us like 6 year old simpletons.
