OT: Pointless 'safety' warnings

A lot of Rowntree's stuff (Kit-Kats etc) used to be made in the USA by Hershey's for the American market. Whether this has survived post the Nestle take-over I don't know.

What's left is a black tarry residue called Hershey Syrup I think it's rather good.

Better than "Monkey's Blood" on ice-cream !

Or more usefully where the entrance is.

I recall one test where they took a selection of "British chocolate" to try out on busy Swiss high street, and found a good many of them preferred it to their usual choccie - so I guess it goes both ways.

Yup, same here!

Indeed, several PCs and lots of carpet! ;-)

They could really do with a building in Winchester...

Cools you down on a hot day and tingles nicely ;-)

Be very careful as you pop your cork. :-)

Yes but tell me you're at least running Linux or FreeBSD, otherwise I couldn't bear it.

Yes but picking out the hairs from between your teeth gets to be a real drag.

i'm beginning to wish I hadnt mentioned it!

Made a huge mistake on my last visit - bought a Kit Kat, which was disgusting. Then noted the wrapper, which described the contents as having been made under licence, by Hersheys ...

The real answer was "Topic", and the funny answer was squirrel s*it ... !!

It's necessary to have a beard, open toed sandals, and to ride a bike to work in order to qualify to run Linux. Otherwise, you're breaking the law, and just asking to get prosecuted by a PC PC PC ...

Well no. I don't have a beard or open toed sandals and neither do I ride a bike to work, but I still run various Unices including Linux and FreeBSD.

Do they really need a bike to cycle across the bedroom from the bed to the PC?

I stick a bottle of Milton in ours.

Indeed, although there are lots of other examples of square nuts. They seem to be used a lot with coach bolts.

And I actually bought some square nuts this week - cage nuts for a 19 inch rack!

Ah, but it's correct...see earlier in thread. It wasn't a bag of nuts, but a bag of legumes.

But they're actually not allowed to be called Unix, of course.
