Toast 16,129 Posted May 23, 2021 On 09/01/2020 at 22:16, Toast said: I don't do Spotify since the time it opened infinite multiple tabs on my laptop and wouldn't shut down. Further to this, in recent days I have found my laptop lagging increasingly to the point where doing something like a crossword or a Sudoku puzzle was frustratingly slow. Switching broadband providers made no difference, but it only seemed to be happening in Firefox. I clean out the cache daily and the Firefox part has been taking an unusually long time lately. Then I discovered that unbeknown to me Spotify had been installed on my laptop, presumably during some Firefox update. I uninstalled it, and the problem was solved. Really quite cross that this fucking thing found its way on to my computer behind my back. It's caused me nothing but trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) I have absolutely no idea why or how this is suddenly the national anthem, my half-hearted internet research resulted in, "changing room antics. It's Scotland" The atmosphere in the highlands is utterly incredible and much needed after this year so we're watching this. It's so exciting. Just look at them! Or not. Seems to be glitching YouTube again @Paul BearerBearerBearerBBeareBeBearBearerBeBearerBearerBeare Fucking hell. Site's fucked, I can't delete that. Nobody ever try to tag Paul he's built a curse in.

Is that an attempt to tag Paul or a reference to Paul Hardcastle's 19? Basically, when Scotland actually qualified they went nuts, and the song playing on the locker room at that moment was Baccara. And of course, football fans, Scots and the internet can turn anything into a meme... Thank god they weren't listening to Barry Manilow! Or Rolf! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted July 10, 2021 I really really absolutely STUPIDLY went to London on an airplane and now I'm breathless. That's quite apart from the hotel fire alarm blaring when I had a fairly serious meeting the next day and spending two hours in the fucking car park in the rain with a silver foil cape and mask after midnight like a Pound Shop superhero. My hotel review is going to be epic.** Anyways. I'm poorly and you should all be feeling really sorry for me and Mudhoney needs invoking. **When I say epic I mean it will be totally fucking blistering. There were actual real airline pilots staying there. It's really quite important they get their sleep surely? Men flying planes having their night disturbed! Might go almost Deathray level even. And aye I obviously made sure they weren't flying me back to Inverness the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 21, 2021 I just wanted to say, for a trio of 50-somethings, my stupid band I’m in, that we cobbled together with three folks who can’t play a lick, is having a lot of fun and doing original crap and I’m enjoying playing bass for the first time in two decades. Not sure who else plays an instrument around here but I hope you are able to do the same. SirC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
