May. 13th, 2006 12:32 pmI keep seeing adverts on bus stops for the new jaffa cake flavours which all sound horrible. I'm sorry but the whole point of jaffa cakes is that they're orange, that's why they're called 'jaffa' cakes! Lemon and lime and berry flavours are just wrong in my opinion.
A little yellow sheild with a black exclamation mark in it has been resident in my icon bar since I set up this PC. I don't know what it's related to (I never saw anything similar on my old PC) and it just says 'Downloading updates' and a percentage when I hover my mouse over it. I'm hoping the downloads are the reason I'm unable to set up MSN Messenger at present as I can't locate any other problems and it's annoying me big time.
Cardiff Bloke texted last night. I suggested he applied for a job in my local paper. He was unimpressed as it's apparantly a horrible shift job which 'takes years off your life expectancy'. Anyway, I texted back and said I was hoping he would get the job, I'd convince him to marry me and then die in service so I'd get the death in service grant. I obviously told him I was joking! Anyway, I ended up telling him my death in service grant is twice my salary which means it's about £36,000 in total. I then commented that you couldn't even get a car for that much these days. I now know that I'm a bit out of touch with car prices. In my little world I though the average new car was about £50,000. Oh dear! But you have to remember that I don't drive and my family has never had a new car so...
