Re: [ql-users] No Virus Now - Maybe
SMSQ/E can have different Langauges included, how about Welsh being an option to be included. The language files could be loaded at boot. And as you know, I lived in Newcastle Upon Tyne for 9 long years... I suppose the Geordie lanuage could be installed. Wot Ye saay Hennie... I think I need Bill to help out here. Georgie...I seem to remember something Darren Branagh sent me about a Geordie version of Windows, or Windaz as I think it referred to it. Quite funny. Think the smsq/e module could be called Monkey or something.. :-) -- Dilwyn Jones

Pah! Blame it on the woman now won't we? :-D Poor thing she couldn't help it! It's like saying that it's Dilwyn's fault that he's so popular with the ladies ;-) Errrwhat did I do/say/think/write THIS time Blame it on my PeeCee, I blame everything on it. Hmm, Dilwyn of Wales somehow hasn't got the right ring to it. I can't see wars started over that (sorry Dilwyn). Wolfgang I'd rather this discussion hadn't started today of all days. World war 3 started about 4pm this afternoon when some stinky little kid came into the garage, where I was minding my own business sorting out a delivery. Next thing I knew, my shoulder was wet. Turned round, there was this snotty nosed 7 year-old little tw*t who'd just taken a window cleaning spray off a stock shelf, taken the plastic off and started squirting it all over me and the shelves. So I snatched it off him and told him to leave the shop. Next time I went out to the forecourt I'm accosted by a gang of the little f***ers wanting to know why poor little Ricky was banned. Actually, I hadn't banned him, it was the boss who'd said he was no longer allowed in unless accompanied by an adult, but he seemed happy to get sympathy by telling everyone his own version of the story which bore no resemblance to that recorded by the cameras - never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Next thing, his mum is in wanting to know what's going on. Step forward staff witnesses, including the CCTV system, off she goes in a huff after one hell of a scene. Later, there's writing all over my car, surprise, surprise. As I'm having to work there by myself this weekend, including late night saturday and early morning sunday, I am only half expecting to come home in one piece. It's only a little Anglesey village but you'd think it was a war zone there sometimes. Clue: guess how many 'Rizzla' cigarette papers that place sells compared to loose tobacco? You know what I mean don't you? So excuse me, my sense of humour died a horrible death this afternoon. Doesn't help that my wife's friend got summarily dismissed today from the firm my wife works for, for nothing more than getting stressed and ill by far too much work being dumped on her with impossible deadlines by lazy colleagues and arrogant bosses. Except she wasn't summarily dismissed, she was handed a piece of paper to sign saying I resign. I won't repeat here what she was told would happen to her if she didn't sign it. The phrase 'climate of fear' springs to mind. Third world slavery? Come to Wales and try some of our employers! Yes but how about writing it Welsh then... that would sound better I guess (Almost everything sounds great in any Gaelic variant) (damn! off topic again) Dilwyn O Gymru or Dilwyn Y Cymro No, I don't think so, Phoebus, leave the 'in Wales' bit to John Hitchcock. -- Dilwyn Jones
