Do pop charts still count these days?

Jacko has every spot in the top ten and most of the top twenty too... Look Glitter, that's all you have to do to make a successful comeback!...

Due Day plus ELEVEN

Even NHS Pregnancy Desktop has given up on us now. This is an annoying thing Clare installed once, starts up with the computer and shows a little timeline of how close you are to your due date and some pregnancy related news stories, from the NHS. Fo...

When did twitter stop shortening urls automatically?

Hmm will try and stop posting those big long links, sorry

If you're reading this on twitter.com/folkestone you don't need to be bothered with the fiendishly huge URL, now do you? I will use http://bit.ly or something in future. Sorry!

Lots of Folkestone twittering now!

See it all gathered together, and auto refreshing at the top of the board and the homepage.

Something to push my desperate ticket touting from the top of the blog

Linksys WVC54G wireless camera, btinternet SMTP and gmail

Dug out my wireless camera, to see if it could be used as a web cam - it's good quality, with sound, but more for security monitoring than sitting in front of the screen and talking. Don't think it can, but it's good to have it up and running again a...

Over the top door staff

I was removed from marthas because i asked a chap in a kilt if it was true that it was tradional for scots not to wear underwear under their kilts. I think this was harsh and ridiculous, and only came about because he "knew" management, i am a sia li...

The plot of a Christopher Brookmyre book

OK so this story doesn't have a plot that we know of so far, but each bit of information that's eeked out of nowhere by the press leads the imagination in different directions, like a good book. Of course, this is not a book, these are people's lives...

They are still the number one ranked local restaurant!

Stop moaning about sore fingers, call yourself a man?

Shame you're not around here at the mo - be happy to help with your chord learning. Yeah you don't have to play all strings for all chords (and there's nothing wrong with that). Learn the basic shapes and keep practising them until you don't have t...

ASUS EEE big size!

Slashdot has a link to the first full review of the big size ASUS EEE micro laptop. So check it out! Despite the fact they make a pink one, I'm less convinced than I was before that this is the right laptop for (say) someone's mother. It might still ...

RE: Top 100 best popex players

Oh, it's cos I've got my login info saved in Opera and it's saved that title too. It'll happen again when I post too. I'll see if I can change it.

RE: Top 100 best popex players

Ha! That's pretty impressive. I like it when you get to the end and see what effect that amount of excitment has had on his brain!

Tip top weekend

For a change we didn't go to Canterbury, though we will be again this weekend. Made a proper session of it on Saturday to celebrate Clare's brother Kev's visit from the Miami. Lunch in Escondido, then a crawl around Hythe taking it (at least) The Bel...

Top weekend

Great weekend visiting, eating, and drinking, very nice indeed, cheers. Not such a bad journey down to Fareham as it might have been, considering it was the bank holiday and traffic was supposed to be monstrous. Normal holdups around Hindhead and the...

RE: Top 100 best popex players

You and your topical quotes!

Ha, I heard another one from him that I liked

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by

I think I would be joint top too

Good luck though!

All information seems to be it will stop at both

The mock up timetable that was distributed showed it stopping at Central, West, Sandling and Ashford, with Folkestone West renamed as "Folkestone Parkway". Not sure who would have a definitive answer though...

RE: That's top of my list too

it was financed mainly by Sequoia, the venture capital firm. Previous investments for them included Apple, Paypal, Cisco and ironically Google itself. They put $11m in, which gave them around 30% of the equity. Plus those rumours of spending $1m a da...
