Wed, 1 Jul 2009 19:35:58 +0100

sender had sent a single message about 10pm but we got called about 4 times

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4P4C
What are the people who use these names likely to mean?
Could they be using another name than 4P4C if the connector pins on the
lead are wired in a ...

2nd BT line: elect which room to have it installed in?
Mon, 29 Jun 2009 08:44:14 +0100
I'm considering getting a second line (am currently with BT, and they
seem to be the only residential supplier in this - rural - area). GF is

setup (and she spends quite some time on the phone to her Mum in Italy).
I've just seen the B ...

OT Just wondering
Fri, 26 Jun 2009 21:12:19 GMT

all I have heard and seen whenever I have switched on TV news

being killed in Afghanistan, no mention about the U ...
