The chains clearly add a bit of extra weight but I can hardly even notice it now that the head is actually heavier. (The total length of chain and the old head both weighed roughly 100g)


My main practice poi are 250g. wink Hence I was very interested.

Sounds good.

You know what? Microsoft Office 2000 works. I like it, I know where everything is, I can use it to do assignments quickly with very little mess.

WHY THE HELL DID MY UNIVERSITY UPGRADE TO OFFICE 2007?!

Because it is new and shiny. Also, incidentally, really annoying.

SOME aspects of it are actually really handy but you don't appreciate them until you've worked out how to use the new one.

I barely passed my last assignment, when I need a distinction average to get into next year. Still, nice to have something like that to put things into perspective!

I'M FED UP OF PEOPLE WHO THINK ITS OK TO BRAG TO PEOPLE WHEN THOSE PEOPLE HAVE NOTHING!
FED UP OF PEOPLE TAKING THE PISS BECAUSE THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CONVERSATION!
FED UP OF HAVING TO SIT WITH THE SAME BORING, INANE WORK COLLEAGUES LISTENING TO THEM TALK ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE AND HEARING OVER AND OVER THAT THEY'RE GOING ON HOLIDAY IN NOVEMBER!
FED UP OF THE BULLYING THAT TAKES PLACE AT WORK!!

She cannot intimidate me though, because I'm not ever going to be one of her victims. She wont try to beat me up like she's done to others because I'm bigger than her, and she knows i'd get her for ABH. So she ignores me, and life hasn't been better. But if she starts on someone else, anyone else, I will help herl get her just desserts!!!! Noone will stand up to her, but I will.

(soz, rant about a work colleague who is pure nastiness - typical bully grrrrrrrrr)
