    About 3 miles, a village on the outskirts so best of both really

    Do you have a virus according to the India scam call centre that keeps ringing you?






    I like to let them ramble and say I use Linux at the end when they tend to hang-up

    I ask them what qualifications they have, reminding them that I lectured in computer subjects. They hang up.

    do you let them rant on then tell them you don't have a computer?

    no they just want you to download an app that will log all your key strokes. bang goes your bank account.

    do you want a new gas boiler?

    My boiler room is full of call centre staff

    Does a helpdesk really ever help anyone?

    no. They just look up the manual that you have been supplied with.

    do you get half decent summers where you live? the rain is bouncing off the ground here at the moment. about eight miles from the open golf.

    Really, you have to ask if the weather is ever good in England. Might snow anytime for all I know but never around Christmas anymore.

    When on a holiday is it safer to Paraglide or do the Banana boat? yes both potential lethal options but which is slightly less

    if you can swim then banana boating is slightly the better option


    do you paraglide?

    Done the paraglide thing on holiday with daughter several years ago and even did Hang-gliding "up" at the peak district*. Involved a big slope, cow pats and generally lots of dragging the f**ker back up the hill. Still interesting times


    Would you rather call someone, send a text or email?
