I'm a party animal

[andrewducker]

So, I arrive at Guy's flat for the party, chat to people for ten minutes and then he hits me up for a favour....

Could I set up his new ADSL router for him?

Can I go _anywhere_?

Fifteen minutes of much swearing later, I realise his username (supplied by Pipex) spells xtreme without the leading e.

I wonder how many people have spent hours swearing at their PCs because Pipes thought it'd be kewler to leave the e off?

I now return to Irn Bru and conversation, you may carry on with your day.

Considering whenever you go anywhere the first thing you do after exchanging normal plesantries is, if there's a computer, check email/lj, that's hardly surprising.. *beam*

*grins* yeah, so if the computer's broke, it kinda follows that he'd probably make an attempt at fixing it :)

Hows life down south? ;)

At the moment, panic filled and boring at the same time.

Heh heh,... oh.

I was once almost bullied into carving a roast chicken beacuse "you are a cook so you know how."

I am not a "cook", I have no papers to show for my skills. Sigh.

However, as soon as I started to carve, the beautifuly roasted fowl just fell off the bone.

Voila! I'm going back to couch, someone better bring me a drink.

Ekatarina, who upon meeting someone at a party who can do something she needs will ask if she can contact them *at a later time* and pay them for their services. It's only fair.
