So, a new 'boxer, KongFarmer, appears and moans about a rat infestation at work. Scubar complains of a rat infestation at home. I assume Scubar has finally recognised he can't really cope on his own and accepted KongFarmer as a home care provider. KongFarmer, he may be rubbish at making coffee, and a very slow driver, but he's ours; please look after him, as we love having him around, so that even the noobs have someone they can beat at Dip. Harsh But fair

I'm fairly new, had been occasionally posting for a year before it was shut down.
Am I right in thinking we lost a few due to workplace internet restrictions?

The GT: Sport chat makes me glad I didn't buy it. I know they've now added the old school offline progression stuff but the lure of online would always be there. I may just pick up a 2nd hand copy of driveclub - despite not being able to do up the cars it's ok for a wee race now and again.

I'm fairly new, had been occasionally posting for a year before it was shut down. Am I right in thinking we lost a few due to workplace internet restrictions? We have 80 registered users (4 of them Bink!) Many of the old crowd registered but haven't really participated, partly due to access restrictions I suspect. Partly because, since the demise of the original Chatterbox, it's not the same. Quite a few people post via mobile. On the plus side, we appear to have lost Limni...

What we need is a Kakao Talk group with its genius Excel theme. koreaittimes.com/image/1-302That isn't some shonky hack either, its actually built into the app.

There was a visual basic plugin that did that for Facebook. Though it actually brought FB into excel.
>>There are also huddles and hangouts.
Google+ things they are.

I may just pick up a 2nd hand copy of driveclub - despite not being able to do up the cars it's ok for a wee race now and again. I don't like Driveclub, all the cars feel like they're a wooden block riding on 4 other wooden blocks. With GTS the cars feel actually nimble (most of them, some are still blocks). Its worth a punt at £25. Trust me.

I am emphatically not OK. Started puking on the train platform and train last night (they gave me a sick bag). I passed out and continued puking through the night. I have also not been able to sleep a wink. I think dark times are coming and mankind is standing upon a presipice.
No games obvs.

Morning all.
No real games last night.
I'm going to try pick back up Ass Creed: Origins tonight and burst through it.
Played FIFA for a bit and realised how much I hated it.

I have also not been able to sleep a wink. I think dark times are coming and mankind is standing upon a presipice. No games obvs. One does not stand on a precipice, one stands at the edge of it. The precipice is the steep (precipitous) slope or vertical face, not the area at the top of it. It's also spelt precipice, not presipice. With writing like that, I'd say the dark times are all ready hear, and its you're fault. Edit: if it's so bad you are passing out, or if for several hours you have been unable to keep water down, you should probably seek medical attention, especially if it is accompanied by abdominal swelling or spasmodic pain. NHS Direct on 111 is probably the best place to start (or 999 if you are actually unconscious.) Even relatively short-term severe dehydration can have lasting unpleasant effects, and there are plenty of unpleasant potential causes of why you might be puking that badly.

I’m not sure AssCreedO is a burst through game. I like it, but it’s not like the other ones. You actually have to think a bit when fighting now

Rats. I have them in my garden, and occasionally in the loft. It's a bad business, you want to find the holes they are using to gain ingress and set up some poison boxes. Alternatively, move out and nuke from orbit. Lazybones: hi. Gongfarmer: hi. Melvazord: outstanding.

Also get better at cricket. It was an embarrassment Joe.

What does everyone thing might be wrong with Baby? My best guess would be three or more of the following: perforated ulcer, appendicitis, peritonitis, strangulated hernia, salmonella, gastrointestinal perforation, diverticulitis, norovirus, gastroenteritis, listeria, E coli, or too much alcohol yesterday. I hope he's ok.
I'm having a cheese wrap for lunch, made with Jarlsberg, tomato, and rocket.
