Here, turn them into something useful[^].
You can hide your valuables in them because no one will touch them.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

That's not Stephenson is it? Either way it's a good reminder that I lent my old copy to a bloke here who has handed his notice in, so I'd better start asking for it back.

thankfully not the 2nd, which was Croft Davidson and full of errors I bought both editions (not very good at maths! had to resit it!) C&D was thicker and less use!

This seems to imply C++ is about 20 times harder to understand than Java.

yeah. I would love to see how someone has "learned" java in 24hours (without any background knowledge beforehand) 
The only thing you can learn about java in 24hours is that you should keep your hands away from it

All of those "learn XXX in YYY hours/days/weeks" books are pretty much garbage (together with any "for dummies" or multiple exclamation marks in the title) as far as I can see.
Or at least, I've never seen one which produced anything competent by the end.

Did it happen? If not we should be ashamed given the large English presence on this site and the relatively small distance we needed to travel.

I've got a note from me mum, I was on holiday at the time.

I got a note too, I was here[^], it was well worth the 50+ Mosquito bites I am now constantly itching.

I got stung in the neck by a wasp and a bird somehow managed to sh*t on the inside of my sunglasses whilst I was wearing them.

No, they didn't. I tried to organise 3. Only 2 people responded. The last get together was supposed to be last night in Scotland, and I had zero interest expressed.
I have apologised to Chris.

I don't see how it can be your fault that no one could/would attend.

I apologised for not whipping up the interest. As usual, Chris was as gracious as ever.

As said, not your fault, I'm surprised the Londoners didn't get together though especially as there was going to be a drinks budget. To be fair I think the worldwide uptake hasn't been that great.

Indeed. The budget wasn't huge, but as I'd have been paying for it initially, I'd have thought someone would have run with it. Oh well.

Yeh, sorry about the thingie, it all went haywire last week. We got the completion Date last Monday and spent last week packing and this week unpacking. Still not fully cleared out the old place yet but we're now living in Crossgate. I've just realised we've had the new place less than a week, but it feels like we've been moving for a month.

There are soooooo many inappropriate jokes I could make out of that simple sentence. I'm not going to though.
