Brisbane (which is near Eagle Street Pier I think) I've never been there - has anyone else?? Go to that usual web page to see the details and Dan Nolan's dodgey pic taken by the hand of Dodgey ole Zac. :-) http://toriamos.meetup.com/hq/ click on the Brisbane one I guess. Becc!?! Bindy!?! You didn't show last time. Ninz? Zac? - work?? Pam!?! Ann? (I don't know you're "name" on the confirm list) Anyone else LURKING?

Through theonering.net - they have a line-party thingy - which basically organises people in each city so they can all go watch it in a group - i.e. they can book for one of the first sessions and they give away stuff. Anyway just checked my other e-mail address and Paul - who's running the Brisbane one has got 70 places (I think - since yesterday there are 40 places left). Anyway it's at the Regent on the Queen Street Mall which has been refurbished with stadium seating etc. Tickets are 13.50 - which is adult price no? No concessions cause of group booking supposedly. ANYWAY - it'll be middnight on the 26th of December (boxing day) that is early boxing day morning! :-) E-mail me if you want me to let him know that you want a ticket or go to theonering.net and follow the "Line Party" links through to Brisbane.

They'd pull you over for speeding and across the street some poor old lady is probably getting raped and bashed and her house robbed. At least that was a nice cop that put that in the lower speeding bracket. Twice in three months though Anna (sorry I called you Ann in my second last post).

If you get fined eg. $118, send off a cheque for $120. Then they have to send you a refund cheque of $2... BUT apparently they can't process the demerit points thing until you go and cash your $2 cheque... so if you don't go to cash it, you don't get the points taken off! Although yeah you still lose the extra money you paid them. But still! "Bye now", Dr Nathan. ===== "Look we've established that I was a total wanker at uni so can you just stop mentioning it?

Just navigate around and look for one.. HOWEVER... if you are a SQQ, then the mp3 doing the round for that one really isn't that great sound quality. Hence in a fit of frustration & stupidity, I got the RAINN promo thing 2 months ago to hear a 'good' version of it. (although still acoustically it sounds rather quiet @ same volume as needed for Post-Pele releases). Just a few weeks back I also got my leather-gloved hands on an mp3 of PTDO(TTM) which has the intro & middle "I'm trying not to move.." section which are cut out of the usual one. However, 'tis clear that somebody just cut & pasted those bits on from BFP, as they sound good quality then it reverts back to the crappier mp3 one. Oh well.

I promptly rang my computer "supplier" when it happened about 3-4 times. He finished my sentence when I explained what was happening. He said thirty people have already rang him today about it. It's the XP - update the new one. I downloaded and installed it last night (the bloody program basically forces you to do it with it's friggin alerts and windows). So that was done. And now this afternoon my computer is a usless paperweight.. I did try to start it in safe mode and do a system recovery there - but it didn't "work" - i.e. it wouldn't accept it and now when I try to get back into safe mode - it just like the other options goes to a black screen FUCKING MICROSOFT ARSEHOLES!! The guy said as he tried to lead me through to the screen where you can choose a previous 'good' version - that cause that technique didn't work - that I'll have to take it in. And it's a big job - it'll be about 3-4 hours. Now he didn't mention price - but I'm assuming that I will have to pay him. Why should I fucking have to pay him when I got the fucking thing only in october. And I FOLLOWED what the program/Micropenii wanted me to do. It should be Microsoftcocks fixing it for me - or re-embursing me the repair costs!! He said I wouldn't loose my data - as he'll use a ghost screen - or what ever. I hope this is correct and can be promptly fixed on Monday. (Think of all the businesses this will effect). I'm using my P133 to type this. Lucky I still had it. GRRR. Can anyone help?
