Newsreaders and reporters who've started saying someone was wounded in a road accident! No they weren't! Not unless someone shot or stabbed them at the same time!

Would also be brilliant to separate road from buses. I know a lot of areas would have been off-limits that were showing green for me.

Buses are not in there. Road=car. Although the cars are going way to fast ATM. It's a problem of quality data we can't solve til we get some money.

Had a quick look at the site, very nice. I didn't bother with roads in London, driven there once which was more than enough!

Not that I plan on moving to London!

Would be a huge addition IMO and would set you apart. Bus timetables are pretty easy to find but understand it'd be a lot of work getting it all tied in (which would mean MOOLAH).

Anyway, after I phoned the letting agent rep yesterday and complained, she "double checked" and reaslised they'd made a mistake. They're now proposing a £50 increase. Morons.

Oh, I've done the work to integrate bus timetables, it's just that the dataset is so vast that it melts the server you try to run it on and as far as possible I'm trying to stick to a homogeneous server environment, for now, rather than splitting the data across many nodes and set up a far more complex and costly to manage distributed system.

"made a mistake" = "tried it on"?

Possibly, but the price was *so* much higher than equivalents it could well be a mistake. Would be ludicrous to try that rent on as no-one would ever pay it. Still, some people are very stupid.

Furry muff. Nerd.

Think you misunderstood, the 2 bed 2 bath was £25 more than the incorrect proposed rent. £1k p/w is spot on value-wise.

the girl I've had a major crush on for the past 6 months has let herself be impregnated by some nitwit. It's done wonders for her bewbs, and I suppose there's still time to rip the parasite from her womb...but still :eek:

Middle managers who know fuck all but want to be involved in every decision then cant make a decision and pass it round to other middle managers who also know fuck all causing months of delay and pointless expense.

Returning something to America that was wrongly delivered.

Commercial invoice, tax.

Fuck off, it weighs nothing and there is no cost involved. Just send the fucking thing.

having to pay £50 a week to get a train to college, combined with other bills like housekeeping I made £20 last month doing college mon-fri and working sat-sun. When literally everyone else on my course is on benefits getting jobseekers, when they arent job hunting and getting other perks like free/cheaper healthcare and travel. :mad:
