I know my subject and I already have 17 pages. The subject is: Foundation of preservation area.

I don't know what to write or how much I supposed to write.. My teacher/tutor doesn't have time to advise me because she is really busy.. :shrug: What can I do? I'm stuck with the subject.. :(

oh yes i have the same problem with my thesis which is about the traffic companies' financing, i have 66 pages at the moment and i think i finished it but my tutors can find out something for me :? the worst thing is that i have to take it to the college when i'll be in Birmingham for Meat's show but i'll find the way to work both out :D

This time next week we'll be waiting for Meat to come on stage...Meat fear is really kicking in now!!!

since when did ~~~~~~ all snow become heavy snow on the weather forecasts???

you're definitely getting quicker, Michael. This one only took you three hours to think up! :-P

Happy Happy day before Thanksgiving Day, meatie peeps !

I am SO proud of my fellow Americans ! I've not a clue if the tv show Dancing With The Stars is seen world-wide, but if so, I guess I'm proud of the citizens of the world ! Sarah Palin's daughter did NOT win the grand prize !!! I really thought Mama Bear Palin had all her Mama Grizzlies and Pitbulls with lipstick voting over and over keeping the kid in, but... JUSTICE WON OVER !!! and Jennifer and hotcha Derek took the prize !!! YAY FOR THEM AND ME ! (it's the only "reality" type show I watch and having to see Mama Bear in the audience week after week was ruining it a bit for me, but a beautiful waltz by Jennifer Grey and Derek could always perk me up ... awww ... just gorgeous ! )

Three times in the past week I've had to go from Dublin to Kildare for Jury service and three times I haven't been selected.

At least it's over and done with now.

Three times this week I have waited in for Orange to sort there ~~~~ up out, and three times I have been disappointed.

so that's Orange and Jury services that are rubbish then? or just Orange Jury services maybe?:shock:

I wrote this on the Rockman on Tuesday:

I thought some of you may enjoy a chuckle at my misfortune...

Things started off wonderfully well: my contract was up and Orange offered me a much cheaper tariff and a brand new, shiny Nokia N8. Sadly it's all downhill from there.

I received my shiny new N8 earlier on today, complete with new sim card and other assorted bollocks. I registered the sim as you do and then put it in the little black cartridge and stuck it in the phone. It turns out that this was a major error on my part, and it was incredibly stupid of me to insert the new sim card SUPPLIED BY ORANGE into my new phone. I waited a couple of hours and still my phone was offline. I tried various things and then randomly tried to take out the sim card. It would not come out! It turns out that the new micro sim supplied to me BY ORANGE was not designed for the Nokia N8 and it was now stuck.

After I spent the best part of an hour on the phone to Raj and his friends in India it turns out Orange made a booboo and put the wrong sim in the box. I have to wait until Thursday for them to send me a new one out by courier.

The best bit is that I am now without a working phone. They can't re-register my old sim card for some insane reason and the new one supplied won't work in any of my old phones.

If anyone else finds themselves in this mess; the answer is yes, you can get the sim card back out with some tweezers, but you have to be bloody careful!

Followed by this yesterday:

Last night I had a good idea! While the micro sim wouldn't work in my new Nokia N8 it did work in my old Nokia N85, so I wasn't totally without a phone. I had to go out this morning, but I made sure there was someone in the house to take delivery of the new sim being couriered out by Orange. It turns out this was a BIG MISTAKE. Mr Indian call centre yesterday 'helpfully' forgot to tell me that the courier would also be picking up the micro sim and wouldn't drop off the new one without doing so.

After another 45 minutes spent on the phone with Orange I now have to wait in tomorrow morning for another sim to be sent out. I was also told that I'm not the only one to suffer this fate and they've sent out many phones with the wrong sim! I did manage to get a month's worth of stuff knocked off my bill though, so it wasn't a total bollock.

From the last couple of days I have deduced that Orange is not what it used to be!

And here is todays update, exclusive to MLUKFC!

The new sim card was delivered this morning, and now I've discovered that the phone doesn't work! Orange will replace it for me but there is one slight problem with that: They are out of stock and won't be getting any more in for at least two weeks. :wall: They have kindly decided to lend me a Nokia X6 in the mean time which is actually worse than the phone I already have, so it will sit unopened in it's box ready to go back.

I now have to wait around yet again tomorrow for the random appearance of the courier. :kickass:

Yeah ... happened to me last week. I spoke to a guy called Ramesh who, despite having a Yorkshire accent, told me how hot it is and how good that curry was last night ...

I don't know, but if I was in India I could find the shit bag responsible for my current phone woes and stamp on his / her knackers. :kickass:
