My winrar extracts fine, to directory or file, rebuilds longer files (like movies, out of dozens of smaller rars) and is very well behaved.

I'm using a free Winrar from years ago - it's a trial version that nags me on startup but is easily ignored. I only use it for .rar anyway and only once in a blue moon, so I never felt inclined to pay. Mine is ver 3.60 beta1, but the later versions might work ok Here's a site with old versions of various software www.oldapps.com/winrar.php |

For those of you who feel the cold, I bought some of these heat tech tops last year. they really do help keep you warm and are great for layering up as they are nice and thin so you don't feel like the Michelin Man  they also wash well and dry quickly! I have hunted them out from last year and am wearing one now shop.uniqlo.com/uk/goods/074066I'm sure they'd look very fetching on me.  Reminds me, I need to stock up with M&S thermal underwear. Got two sets of long johns and a top, but one of the tops is showing its age. I used to wear them in rotation the entire winter out on the bike from dawn till dusk and beyond, so they proved themselves wonderfully. I can absolutely recommend these for practical winter wear - and these days it's better to wear an extra effective layer than spend outrageous amounts on oil. |

My cat might be interested - he's missing a pair.

Bloke in pub said this................ Man Dies from Breathing Own Farts A terrible diet and room with no ventilation are being blamed for the death of a man who was killed by his own gas. There was no mark on his body but an autopsy showed large amounts of methane gas in his system. His diet had consisted primarily of beans and cabbage (and a couple of other things). It was just the right combination of foods. It appears that the man died in his sleep from breathing the poisonous cloud that was hanging over his bed. Had he been outside or had his windows been opened, it wouldn't have been fatal, but the man was shut up in his near airtight bedroom. According to the article, "He was a big man with a huge capacity for creating 'this deadly gas.'" Three of the rescuers got sick and one was hospitalized. Just as well he didn't awake spark up a fag |

I've just saved myself enough to purchase a lot of vaping kit over the next couple of years.
100g of Borax
100g of Sodium Carbonate (washing soda)
200g of cheap Daz handwashing powder
1 cake of soap - called for Sunlight, but none available, used Palmolive.
Hot water in a bucket, melt the grated soap, add the powders, give a bloody good stir for five minutes
and top ut to two gallons.
Let set to a gel (takes a day) and use half a cup per wash instead of your normal washing powder.
There's enough there to last me for ages and I'll never run out of soap powder or tablets again.
I've done a couple of normal washes so far and it works well.

That's a cracking idea - I'm fed up with atties, bottles, cartos falling over and rolling around and when all the bottles are in boxes, they just fall over and roll around anyway. Need some order...

It's cold enough in this room to make me put a shirt on. Meanwhile, in the back room where I put 4" of insulation on the walls and 6" in the ceiling, I could dance around naked with no heating. Really must get on with doing the rest of the walls, it's really showing its worth so far.

Juice: The dregs of the mix above, + put in a Hazelnut and Chocolate mix. There's a whisper of Whiskey still coming through. Flavour: You know that film Chocolat? Well, it's like walking into the shop and licking Juliette Binoche's armpits. Feeling: Woosly Descriptive word: Fromelicious Star rating: 4* Conclusion: Deliciously decadent. I could have spent money for a flavour mix like this - but it cost next to nothing. www.imdb.com/media/rm2069404672/tt0241303 |

Juice: DIY Coffee / Vanilla Cream mixed 50/50 with DIY Whiskey and Caramel
Flavour: Like chewing on a grocer's carpet
Feeling: Relazzzzing
Descriptive word: Chewy
Star rating: 4*
Conclusion: I owe it all to my new double-barrelled Vivi; without this arriving by accident I'd have missed out on the flavours I'd lost.

Lol, I seen his site a few days ago. I found a 4 year old panasonic laptop battery (never been used) ripped it open and found 4 18650's. I damaged one so going to bin it but the other 3 still had 3.75 volts in them after all this time. all seems well ATM Now that's an idea! I've got a couple of them knocking around and it's likely that some of the cells are still good. |

Not heard of the double-barrelled vivi ??? Let us know how you find it Hmm... nice draw; especially after coming from clearos that were past their best and a dodgy DCC that tasted burnt even when new, just yesterday. The same liquid (a coffee, rum and vanilla mix) is filling my mouth with creamy vape that's almost chewable. I'd forgotten how good that could be. That's at 3.7V on my LT mk1 - tried it briefly at 4V and 4.4V but seemed to lose a bit of flavour as the vapour got hotter. Their server seems to be at the end of a bit of wet string at the moment, but this is the address of the Vivi double clearo... www.easy-eliquid.com/vv-double-clearomizer/I also see they're doing 30mls for €3 but I can't access that - perhaps is causing the overload. |
