Title: Clock?
Post by: Lizmar on July 15, 2009, 11:44:30 am: Anyone noticed the clock is wrong on the site? Me supposed to be working nearly missed my next meeting as it is an hour out. I know I'm in Ireland, but think the time is the same?

Go to your profile and click "Look and Layout Preferences" from the menu on the left. In the box labelled "Time Offset:" type "1" then scroll down and click "Change profile". It will now display the correct time.. until we leave BST and return to GMT in the Autumn!

As for the comment regarding me going to work on a pony!! I may live over here but I'm a Londoner and as such have a very nice car (being ruined by the crap roads though!) Anyway the meeting is in the next office so just use my 'my plates of meat'!!

Post by: sandy on July 15, 2009, 07:13:54 pm: My clock is correct but I don't go to work...Oh, stereotyping can be offensive even when some people find it funny others may not, my years of youth work and social work would have me sacked if I were to use any stereotypical phrase!!! so now I cringe at others suing them..

Post by: Tullywood Farm on July 16, 2009, 03:05:53 pm: Hi Gem,

That is what worries me!.

We as parents can do and say what we like, But as kids get older you can not be there all the time.
I only hope that Tara is as sensible as Her Mammy.
Remember the old saying.
Yorkshire born, Yorkshire bred strong in the arm soft in the head.
Well that me!!. ;D ;D ;D
Love and best wishes
Joe :)

Post by: CarraghsBorderCollies on July 16, 2009, 05:40:37 pm: i grew up in lincolnshire and the saying i remember was;

Lincolnshire born,
Lincolnshire bred,
strong in the arm,
and thick in the head.

although i also dated a yorkshireman once and he was definately "soft" in the head!

Title: Re: Clock?
Post by: CarraghsBorderCollies on July 16, 2009, 06:17:05 pm: there is a scots woman near where i live she is in her 40's has half her teeth missing, an alcoholic, aggresive, bad body odour, spits when she talks (and worked in a local chipper until recently) and hasnt 2 brain cells to rub together and has a hideous obese obnoxious braindead daughter!

if i didnt know any better, i could easily tar all scots with the same brush as she is a very poor advertisment for scotland.....
