    [Technology] Anybody interested in creating Android Apps ?

    Guys - I hope Bozza allows this - if not, no problem, but I'm after a little help. I have mentioned on here before that 3 years ago I was really quite ill, with bowel cancer and kidney failure and I had to stop working. As I can't now really go out to work I am now trying to initiate a new...

    RSCH food dialema

    So, I have my next operation at County Hospital due in 2 weeks. Not bothered about the op at all - I've had so many now, it's all rather tedious. However, it is highly unlikely I will eat the in-house food - I've made that mistake before, it's pretty horrendous. When people visit me I will get...

    Car battery/alarm problem

    Ok, as NSC has the answer to everything, I have a silly car issue. I was in hospital for a while and while I was in, my car battery went flat - not enough charge to open the doors with the remote key. I can unlock the doors with the manual key and open the bonnet. When I connect the battery...

    So, what were your expectations

    Without the benefit of hindsight, what were your hopes and expectations for the season ? I thought, after the disappointments of last season that we'd be top half, maybe pushing for the play-offs, I never foresaw what has transpired.

    O/T the Marina

    Silly question ... is there a taxi rank at the marina, I can't see one on the map. I have numerous appointments at RSCH and thought it might be nice to walk down for lunch afterwards, but would need a taxi back to the station. I don't do busses.

    Susie Wolff

    I see she is retiring as she sees no prospect of getting a drive on the starting grid. Shame, I would like to have seen how good she is. There really ought to be women in F1 if they are good enough, I see no reason why not. I vaguely remember Davina Galicia

    Nadal - dumped from US Open

    It probably should be no suprise now but Nadal has been dumped out of ghe US Open. How the mighty have fallen, this great player who was once pretty much unstoppable can't seem to win a match now. I always thought his knees would force him out of the game early, but this problem seems to be in...

    TV reporters getting to distaster scenes

    Whilst watching the Sky reports from Tunisia, I was just wondering how their TV crews get to these places so quickly. Ok, Tunisia isn't the hardest place to get to, but in just a few hours they have a top reporter (who was presumably in London), plus cameras, sound etc. - ok, the tech stuff...

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    I know we have all sorts on here and I'm sure someone will have a clue : I had bowel cancer last year, that was successfully operated on and scans are all clear, so that's great, but the op left me with a temporary stoma bag. I was told I'd have it for 4-6 months before reversing. I have now...

    Speeding tickets

    I got my very first speeding fine in 30 years of driving a while ago - probably not a surprise, it's quite easy in my SLK. I took the 3 points etc. , no argument from me, no problem. It occurred to me the other day that I think it's now 3 years since that and I think the 3 points stay on your...

    Blatter

    Fifa president Sepp Blatter has promised human rights records of countries will be used to assess future World Cup bids, following criticism of 2022 hosts Qatar. (The Independent on Sunday) Somebody please remind the corrupt old prick of this when he awards the next one to China

    Just Ea income

    Was just reading that JustEat charge their restaurants up to 12% when people go through them for an order. The take-away must be putting up their prices to cover these costs. They also pass all credit card payment charges on to the customer and add a bit on for profit. I don't understand why...

    Facebook trivial question

    Someone please tell me why I'm being such a facebook idiot regarding tagging peoples' names in posts. I'm sure it's simple but using the ipad app, I only seem to be able to tag some people in posts. I think I can always tag friends, but I know I can tag some people who are not friends, but...

    A business-y question

    Given the broad reachings of NSC I thought I'd seek opinions on what I would imagine must be a common problem in business. I have an idea for a line of business. This idea is so obvious to me that there may well be a good reason why it hasn't been done before - as far as I can see, it hasn't...

    Ryder Cup team

    At 12:30 McGinley has to make public his Europe team for the Ryder Cup later this month. So, who should his 3 captains' picks be then ? Poulter, Westwood, Donald, Gallagher or others ? Don't generally like Poulter but even I have to admit in terms of team spirit he is good to have even if his...

    Would you donate a kidney ?

    After the other kidney thread, and being of paticular interest for me as I need a new one (no, I'm not begging), i was just wondering how many people would be happy to donate a kidney. It is very easy to get through life on one kidney - I have for 50 years - so would you donate ? Did you know...
