Indeed!
They had an offer where you got a Guinness clock free after consuming a
number of cans. They built it up as if it was a work of art. It was
just an ordinary battery quartz (of course) with a printed logo.
It is permanently 9:40 as I can't be bothered to change the battery! At
least it means my QL repairs are always done on time!
.... and I *did* know it was ambiguous (Roy). It was one of those nice
ones that are good to leave just for the post-banter, like SMS T9 worng
words (and that was intentionally left too!).
I sent a text from a bar in Madrid. This was the day before the QL
'show' with Marcel and Jochen and one punter. I was eating a *real*
paella with all sorts of interesting goodies, including little crabs.
It proved impossible to find *any* meat and I reckon they were just
there to look good. I sent a text to a friend - we have got into the
habit of texting from far-flung bars around the world - ".... I am
fighting the arabs".
Just before carol singing at the Rex cinema in Berkhamsted last year, I
sent a text to Janet (fellow singer) asking what time we were due, and
she replied "Sex at 7:30" and realised only as it was being sent!
