  1. iPlayer on the Wii is unexpectedly good. Saved our bacon after the cable box died, anyway.
  2. @grumpyjames Yeah, I had to look it up on wikipedia. I think my teachers were rather old fashioned; I still find one-one and onto easier.
  3. @grumpyjames Don't really understand this modern -jective terminology, but isn't f(x)=floor(x)+(x-floor(x))**2 bijective?
  4. @grumpyjames You mean Unicode char, not utf8 char, presumably?
  5. @grumpyjames (x-floor(x)-0.5)**2
  6. Am I the only veggie who ends up carving the turkey? Merry Christmas!
  7. @scottearle Nice :-)
  8. Pantomime time!
  9. @grumpyjames Any relation to http://www.goliathcorp.com/index2.html ?
  10. PC World refused to sell me printer paper without my name and address. So I walked out.
  11. It's snowing down on Canary Wharf.
  12. Wasted 30 mins trying to install the monstrosity that is Real Player. Then found Real Alternative and got it working in < 2 mins. Sigh.
  13. Have carried home the Christmas tree and put the lights on. My duties as a Dad are complete. Kids now unleashed on the decorations.
  14. No longer sick. Worked at home anyway, as a precaution against infecting everybody else, and because it's cold out there!
  15. @phil_nash Can I have a wave invite please?
  16. Sick. Unpleasant fever. Annoyed.
  17. Spent an hour struggling to remember how to write a batch file. That it should come to this!
  18. Off to ACCU conf at Bletchley Park.
  19. Jubilee Line down, DLR struggling. Not a great start to the weekend.
  20. Got my first dividend from my new company, finally.
