Very, very rarely will I do full IRISH breakfast as it really is too much to have regularly. Whenever we're away however the gloves are off and I'll eat every last collesterol filled mouthful.
We had chicken for lunch and I'm working up the energy to make some perec[^] for later.

I've got a gammon in the slow cooker, the Dauphinoise potatoes are cooled and ready for the oven, the pineapple segments just needs sugaring and roasting, the Hasselback potatoes I haven't started yet, and the green beans just need top, tail, and cook.
Pretty much sorted!

Are you sure you don't need help to eat all that? It sounds so great and I am sitting here at work... starving!

Unfortunately, Concorde is no longer flying, so by the time you get here it will all be gone...

I once sat in the pilot's seat of a Concorde parked for maintenance at Heathrow during my time working there. It was an amazing aircraft! However, these days even it wouldn't help since it would take longer to go through security than to cross the pond!
Bon Appétit!

When I was at school, they took our class to RAE Farnborough when they were doing stress testing on the airframe - massive hydraulic jacks bending the wings to see when they would break while heating and cooling them rapidly! One heck of a sight at that age, even if I didn't really know what was going on (I was about ten at the time IIRC)
Sadly, I never flew in her - but once a week the whole office would stop working as she flew over the building (it was too noisy to think, let alone speak).

She was a beautiful bird! I once was on the plane following her to take off, you knew exactly the moment she throttled back.

The only time I got close to the her, was in the 70's when she was doing her take off trials under hot conditions at high altitudes. This was at Jan Smuts Airport near Johannesburg. It was impressive watching her take off under the stress of high temperatures and high altitude. The Jan Smuts reference point was exactly 5555 ft. above sea level. Nowadays the airport has a different name.
My other memorable flight-related event, was here in Florida. On a few occasions one of the space shuttles would fly almost directly over our house on its approach to the landing runway. It was still supersonic and that created a loud double "boom" that shook the windows and caused dust to fall from the ceiling. The whole family would run to the TV so we could watch the landing in real time.

I'm glad to hear that everything appears to be OK.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Talk about timing. I've just done the 24 hour emptying thing, booked in an hour hence for the camera up the fundament. REALLY looking forward to a feed afterwards.

I installed daemon tools and it gave chrome and mozilla a lot of malicious software.I removed them but since I needed some things to do with internet I used microsoft edge which was safe for that time and fast.Sometimes I m thinking it s better to use something that not many people use to do your job.

As long as you realise that it's probably because of a bug that makes the settings routines not work.

It probably has more to do with MS removing its old addon APIs last summer and not having gotten around to implementing the new one yet. 
Once they get around to adding web extension support you'll be able to enjoy the same flavor of crapware that your Chrome was infested with. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yeah. Most people don't use their brains to do their jobs, or any activity for that matter.

Well that sucks. 
Seems Brian is losing his hearing and can't sing for the band any longer.
I fear the band will retire here soon, after a performance or two with knuckle head as the new singer.
