Eyyy. Fonzy Cool. Like a TMO Pay It Forward!
Sadly, I am miles away from Taunton.

Is it possible for me to mail order "Emotional Technology" by BT's bonus CD or box set version anywhere in the UK?
Why not just order it from Amazon.com?
My only other Suggestion is trying to contact Nettwerk in london, via Ornadel Management, Clearwater Yard, 35 Inverness Street, London NW1 7HB, and see if they can tell you anything.
as a poster. A1+ size ideally, but A2 will do. The pic is called 'Tania' and it is of Patty Hearst. Managed to track one down to a shop in San Francisco, but it is not large enough.
Could you find:
a suitable poster for sale online or a *high-res* version of the image suitable for printing / rasterbating an A1 poster or a shop in London or Paris very likely to have one
If you can do this, I will pay you with smileys and kind regard, and... erm stuff. Thanks!

an advance:
Darryn already tried looking for this, and if he can't find it noone can. All I can suggest, as before is get the one you can get, then take it to a proffesional scanner/printer and get them to run one off. Won't be cheap, but if you want the extraordinary, you have to go the distance to get it.
quote:Originally posted by Sidney: As I am utterly useless at decorating, I feel a Super-Nag coming on and I need some hard facts to convince J that it is now time to get the job done.
NO. This will not work.
The fact is that everyone is useless at decorating. The only way they get any good is by getting on and doing it - by taking time and being patient when things go wrong. By working at them and getting them right.
When D and I first lived together she decided one night that the spare room needed decorating. To give me "encouragement" to start, she ripped a great fucking chunk of the old stuff down. Result: for 18 months we had to look at a lump of defaced wall every time we went into that wretched room and only got round to the decorating part about two months before we sold the place.
IMPORTANT LESSON:Male inertia will always defeat female attempts to nag, goad and annoy.
More positively, the gear is there - if you make a start on the job it will be very difficult for J not to join in and help. Not doing anything because you're waiting "until he gets round to it" is self defeating and, ultimately, demeans you both.

Did you see that program last night where the silly bint paid £260- for ONE roll of wallpaper? And £2000 for tiles for the downstairs loo? Madness I tell you, madness!

Dude, I've been too busy of late to even reply to your emails (beer Friday, maybe, hopefully, fingers crossed) because I now apparently am the companies’ Norwegian translator and FTE expert..
I don't speak Norwegian and FTE's suck.
If anyone wants to divide up this list into:
Hospitals (H) Universities (U) Companies (C) Teaching Hospitals (UH) Research Institutes (RI) Schools (S) Other (O)
Then for the Universities and Schools, hospitals and institutes give me the FTE (Full Time Equivalent - Number of Students, number of beds, and number of researchers) by not using the fucked up lie figures on the World of learning website it'd be appreciated:

I need a headline for a piece about three exhibitions of art going on at three underground stations. They aren't remotely similar. They are all by ladies, but I don't want to emphasise that as it's rather sexist. We can't use the words underground, platform or tube.

Ok Darryn had a quick look and can tell you the following from what I can recall of my knowledge of Norway and Norwegian:
Anything preceeded or including AS is a PLC, thus company (AS Norge Shell for example) Sykehus - Hospital universitet - univeristy natch thus universitetsykehus - university hospital
I can probably go through and identify some and then at least research the others - want a hand?

'Three-way action's my current favourite.
Triumvate tubed? Art goes underground at last?
something like that - juggling.
Miami? Stay in the zone Damo - nasty place - don't go where you shouldn't

Yes, yes, yes. You are right as usual. I feel that I have to point out though that I don't leave all of the decorating stuffz to J to do. I actually join in and do as much as I can in every single decorating job we've undertaken. As we've been together for quite a while and have lived in 4 different places together, that been an awful lot of painting and papering. Which is how I know that I really am utterly useless at it whereas J, on the other hand, has Super Go Decorating Skillz, IMO.
As it happens, I have booked Monday off work as I plan to spend a long weekend stripping the wallpaper off in order to at least get it started. I'm sure that, even with my limited DIY skillz, I can strip off wallpaper.
By the way Ben, can I have you as my surrogate dad, please?

Kovacs I have to admit first defeat of the day - seems the Milligan Stuff has really bought it to light, and Carmine is listed just as creator. There might be something somewhere but its going to take a long time.

Well people I am calling it a day for today - I have tried to some extent to help you all and it has been fun - its kept me awake, made the afternoon go flying by, and made me forget about the pain in my neck.
Trying to track down Hop on DVD. Can be bought from www.filmmovement.com but only for North America residents and expensive - $30. It's a Belgian film. A Benelux site that has this (with english subtitles) at a decent price much appreciated. Or can I get it on R0 / R3?
