IStrutE evening talk on Scottish Parliament building - I wasn't going to go, since it's most about structures (though it'd be nice to refresh memory), but seeing it talks about handling listed buildings and especially now that Arup was forced to close the building after a strut swung free in the debating hall... excuse me, but I have to be there to watch people make fun of Arup. I just have to. (I'm so bad)

BUT - sent out a "reply all" to ask who's going, but just looked at the list and Edward C. is there. If he replies to say he's going, I might not go... XD;;;; or drag the man with me even if he goes kicking and screaming. XD;;;;

Wales tomorrow! So excited. Turns out one of the man's friends can't make it this weekend, so they called it off, so now I don't feel as guilty. Of course, must learn to check the calendar more carefully from now on.



[edit] ...........isn't it sort of weird (and rude) that, when a few people gather around to talk, one of them has to write something on a note to give to another person? If there's something private you want to talk about, you could always do it later...

Ah well. *shrug* Guess some people just don't know constitute to being "socially rude".

4 (1) Subject to regulation 7, no road hump shall be constructed or maintained in a highway unless-

(c) the highest point on it is not less than 25 millimetres nor more than 100 millimetres higher than an imaginary line parallel to the centre line of that carriageway connecting the surface of that carriageway on one side of the road hump to the surface of that carriageway on the other side of the road hump and passing vertically below that point


(from "The Highways (Road Humps) Regulations 1999")

It took me literally 5 minutes to decipher this as "the road hump must be between 25 - 100mm in height, measuring from the carriageway surface".

Oh, the wonders of English!

I think the distinctive lack of reply to the post of wankage says something.
pez: (Tezuka - Dead)
I feel so bored and deflated. Just like the dead!Tez in my icon.

Tomorrow please come soon.

;_;
pez: (Yukimura - Me?)
Right. The man just asked about "wankage", so I explained to him what it means in internet terms. And the conversation sort of went:

Him: Oh, I thought you were talking about me.
Pez: Yeah right, if it's you people wouldn't be so interested.
Him: Quite the opposite! They'd be really relly interested! Try it and see.

I'm not quite sure how I'm supposed to "try it and see", so I guess, huh, here is the post. Is anyone interested? O.o

Oh, please, don't say anything embarrassing XD;

nobody reply to this. provehimwrongprovehimwrongprovehimwrong.

Been burning stuff for tomorrow (yes, I got another DVD burner) (no I won't break this one), and thought, might as well burn all the other stuff...

*sits here and twiddles thumbs as it works*

*checks her bag* I have change of clothes, PJs, underwear, socks, plushes (and their clothes), DVDs*, camera, phone, the chargers, toothbrush. Need to print out the map.

*that's Bleach, PMK, HyouteiMyu and Guu. I think [livejournal.com profile] giving_ground is bringing PoT anime?

Keep thinking: if only I can drive. Not that I'd drive all the way to Wales >_>" but... for things like this, if I have a car then I can bring more stuff, like doujinshi etc... but driving lessons will have to be left for a few months later, I think...

Map - check
Reference no. for train tickets - check
People's phone numbers - check

All the things have been packed. Why do I keep thinking I'm missing something?

My JPQueen order arrived yesterday, but obviously no one was at home to receive it. Am going to the delivery office tomorrow morning to get it. It says it opens from 7am, it better does (one can never tell with Royal Mail).

Haven't got shower gel or shampoo. Will get some from Boots when we're there or something. A travel-size pack would be good. Brought a small tube of intensive lotion (freebie hehe) because it's going to be cold. Ooooh I need gloves!

[edit] The chainsaw. I haven't got the chainsaw, that's what. I can fit it in, but..........
