You're quite right. They need to be longer and a lot floppier. To be honest, it doesn't look like Snoopy at all. But still does a nice bit of toast I suppose. One day I'll save up and have the gen

Looking to get the 4th gen, and machine the dial. The font on the 'Defrost' is a little off too. And the cat should be a dog. Can you help?

All the time customs are distracted by your watches, they miss the bottles in your coat!

It's a looker!!!!! Hang on, isn't that a boy?!

Whoa! A hard drink! Mind you, if I had to pay Land of the Vikings alcohol prices I'd be drinking meths....!

Argh! All this talk of drink is killing me.....spare a thought for those of us sitting in working hours! I've been sitting at work staring at these wonderful drinks since first thing this morning.....

Do my eyes deceive me, or did Henrik Larsson (and er, Giovanni van Bronckhorst) just put Celtic into the group stages of the Champions League next season? Nobody (no-bhoy-dy) around here would be pleased about that would they?......

No worries. Pleased I could help. Question: how long are we going to have to wait to see Swedish Chef go head to head with the Iron Chef?!

Now that looks like a part of Norway I could happily live in! Oh, wait Hope you had a good one! Cheers!

Here's a good simple guide from the BBC: BBC RSS Guide

In layman's terms it's similar to the 'view new posts' button on this forum. The RSS feed from BBC News gives you the latest news stories - so you can just check "what is new" using other software (e.g. bookmarks in Firefox, Thunderbird too)

I think you'll find it's infringement of American brands that actually worry him. Ask him which treasure of the world needs to be protected more urgently: 1. The Swiss watch. 2. Herbie Fully Loaded starring Lindsay Lohan. And I think he'd be Herbie all the way!

Don't know if this is any use to you, the site is slow, and I *cannot* vouch for them (I have had no dealings with them) BUT (!) This may be a clothes manufacturer from which you could order a sample. One of problems, though, is that FedEx on a pair of shoes can cost more than the real shoes! Still, it may be of use! Haifeng Cheers!

Silixfashion is mainly bags and purses, isn't it?

Then you win again! It is (what else?) a watch that helps you spray perfume.... I'm thinking it could be used for pepper spray too for this thread here Pepper spray pen Congrats Gunnar!

Were you being clever, or saying it's an ugly watch?!

NEW QUESTION Okay, this is the last in my 'what's this watch?' series for now. Not nearly as odd as the last one! What is this weird quasimodo watch all about?!

Yes it's for lawyers! Billable Hour Watch Everything a lawyer does is split into six minute units, even if it takes one minute. Means you can do (and charge for) eight hours work in four hours. One minute of 'perusing' = six minutes. One minute of "telephone" = six minutes. One minute of "photocopying" = six minutes, etc., etc. I know from experience...

Good work! Thanks! Always interested in these reps as gifts - sometimes a watch can be a bit personal (people prefer to pick their own). Cheers!

Fair enough guys - as I said this is a very odd one. I'll post some pointers, and if that doesn't help I'll put up the answer! SOME CRAP POINTERS: 1. This watch is relevant to how the job is done in the UK, US and Australia. Other countries may not do it like this, so could be a bit unfair! (Maybe they do, maybe they don't - I only know for sure in these countries) 2. The watch movement is regular quartz i.e. one rotation of hour hand is one hour 3. The hour hand performs no function, only the minute hand. So the markers refer to tenths of an hour (how many minutes?) 4. More often people with this job would use a stopwatch (or stopwatch function on regular watch), a chess clock, computer software, or just use their head to work out the function this watch provides. 5. It allows people to change the fabric of time! (Joke!) It means they can create hours where there were none. It is possible to do (for example) 27 hours work in one day with this watch. Why would somebody want to do this? 6. Final clue. Think money, money, money. Best of luck!!

This would have been good advice to have yesterday. I did, and her expression looked a lot like this:

I strongly recommend Avast Antivirus - it's the full commercial product available for free for personal use. (They make their money from business use). Go to their website Avast website and get any info you want. If there's one product that causes more problems to friends and family (in terms of the "can you fix my computer?" questions I get) it's Norton Antivirus. So I was really pleased to find Avast to wean them all off Norton.
