    Now there's a coincidence, the knee-jerk reaction committee is in session at the same time as the old woman's debating society. We can talk about Eastenders, buying handbags and other fab stuff. Rivetting

    Re: Should I feel guilty?

    Ooh, now now children

    Fortunately I work from home so work and play on the same rig. Right, time for some Supreme Commander
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.
