Those that don't Mash

@Cornz 1 - great point - no matter the scientific merit of the above, those who give it just a 30 second dunk will destroy the whole damn thing.

Forgot an honourable mention for Waitrose Gold - best of the own label we thought at our gaff when we tried a few.

Twinings Everyday for an office situation

For an office (not home where you can take time etc.), Twinings Everyday won it's place in our office (being honest, it's up to me as the only boss who cares about Tea). We broke the emergency seal on the PG the other week and productivity suffered...

I'd have thought the good folks at Yorkshire Tea would have sent the Hard Water version to the Reg - a scientifically designed variant indeed.

BBC protects 'unique' 1Xtra listeners from radio cull

MS botches Office 2010 prices, hikes Professional by £30

Let me be the first to point out....

...the US preinstall of Pro is $399 you say - not too bad.

Our boxed version (assuming we can't have the preinstall for some strange anti-competitive reason) is £430.

Current exchange rate is 1 USD = 0.6363 GBP so...

that's the eqivalent of $683..

which means our economic recovery must be in full swing because how else could we afford this price?

Naked scans: Net cries nude-o-geddon

Hot or not?

Maybe these images could go on a new version of www.amihotornot.com? Brings new meaning doesn't it?

Nice but...

...can someone please make something like this that looks like a regular mains faceplate????

I'm about to rewire my house and to be honest, running extra cables is a big pain in the ar*e!!!
