Got a bit of a shock to find some of my nephews and nieces have hit their 30s - I thought they were still in their early 20s!
When I left my sister's house my niece said to me, "See you in a couple of years uncle Derek, I'll still be 27".

I was shocked earlier when my mrs said I was thinning on top… I asked her to take a photo and it hit home hard. Problem is I’m not just thinning, the area that I’m thinning is shaped like a nob… so now I’m officially known as nob head in my house.
Just do what I did years ago and shave it all off. No dandruff, money wasted on shampoo or hairdressers, just a clean head.
When I was travelling, I worked in a book warehouse for a while whose company was the publisher for all the Star Trek books. I remember reading all the schematics for the Enterprise design in one large book, including full size, pull out, blueprints. I was also amused to find the Klingon-English\English-Klingon dictionary.Derek27 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 09, 2021 12:09 amHave you ever seen the Haynes manual for the Starship Enterprise? So mind-blowingly serious you'd think it was really built.Trader Pat wrote: ↑Fri Oct 08, 2021 11:33 pmI loved Star Trek when I was a kid and was always interested in the behind the scenes stuff so following on from that this is typical Shatner. Apparently he hated any of the other actors getting any of the spotlight and so he wasn't very popular with the rest of the cast. When Leonard Nimoy died he didn't go to the funeral because he said he had 'previous commitments' and this trip into space is the ultimate f*ck you to James Doohan who played Scotty and had his ashes shot into orbit when he died.greenmark wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 5:47 pmOccasionally a headline makes me chuckle for reasons I know not.

Got a frightening message on my TV screen saying something along the lines of "This DVR is fucked and will attempt a repair. It may take three hours. DO NOT SWITCH OFF FOR 3 HOURS!"
What do I do? I switch the bugger off!
Switched it on again, same message, waited 15 minutes and it's back working with all my recordings in tack. I just wish Virgin Media would give more accurate timings instead of scaring the crap out of you.

Fuck me!!!
I've always ignored the 'size of text' setting thinking it's for blind people. Didn't realise you can emulate a higher screen resolution by reducing it.

If you have your Windows scaling on anything larger than 100% (or 96dpi as it's sometimes called) many areas of Bet Angel won't display properly
ie, the rules and settings editors will have many of the pick lists or other options not being visible
My old laptop was on 100%. My new one defaults to 125%. No problems with BA displaying but much better on 100%. I could do with a longer ladder.
It's 1981 now, talking about the Nolans being overdressed...

I suspect the 'affection' you describe in the men's game is designed to conceal the identity of the scorer. Thereby suppressing their market value and thus maintaining your own. There may also be some argy-bargy in the huddle like - "we layed against ourselves to the hilt, you tit!"
