Only crochet? You're getting off lightly. My other half is into knitting, embroidery, quilting and other miscellaneous crafts. The house is full of bits of fabric large and small, threads, yarns various, weaponry, incomplete projects, ...
The only thing catalogued is the Embroiderers Guild library of which she is custodian. And even then, the spreadsheet we inherited doesn't match physical inventory.

My flat's like that. I don't do any of those things or have a wife/partner/sister/lodger who does. I just have a dog!

I made a hat size calculator for my wifes projects.

Is there any way you could convince her that yours would be multi-threaded? ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)

She knows a pant load about computers and software but she don't know vb6 isn't (technically) multithreaded or not.
So... yeah. 
|
|
|
|
|
And tell her about how you can hook into system calls...
|
|
|
|
|
Experience has shown that even a simple project like the one I was thrusting upon her would eventually need a feature that could only be accomplished by such hooking.

Only if he's spinning yarns.

Don't worry. You're still obligated to keep things sorted.

Here is my situation. I am having problems logging into Paypal. When I enter my credentials I get the page that says
Swampwiz, we’re looking out for you
A device or location recently used to log in appears unusual to us.
Just to be safe, let’s change your security details to help prevent your account from being used without your knowledge.
which after hitting Continue gets to page with an asterisk that spins around and hangs. 
I go to the page that supposedly gives the telephone number to call for help[^] and click on the link for Call Us, and the new page hangs.
I do a search and find that there is a number to call +18882211161, and when I call (via Skype) there is the message that says this is not a working number.
I try and send an E-mail as per the website, but of course, I have to login to be able to do that.
I go to the Paypal Community and try to post this issue, but it forces me to login first.
I seem to have run of options. Certainly, there must be a way to send a general E-mail to someone who can somehow get help. I'd appreciate it if someone that works for Paypal, or knows someone who does, etc., can figure out a way for me to contact. Thanks.

England 1, Iceland 2
BOLLOCKS.
Yes, I know there's a while to go but really? Losing to Iceland?

I mean, you guys decided you wanted nothing to do with the Euro, so...
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde
Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

From what I've seen so far, Iceland deserves to be where they got. They are far from having stolen their results.
You always obtain more by being rather polite and armed than polite only.

They think it's all over! It is now!
I've been saying for days that Iceland would turn us over, so I suppose I'm the only Englishman to have done anything right tonight!

Methinks Hodgson will be collecting his pension from tomorrow. Unless the sunshines at the FA are way stupider than we give them credit for...

Nah, Dyke was on the point of ditching him already. I doubt they'll wait a second longer.

Here's hoping. They need someone who knows one end of a football from the other...

Maybe time for a younger manager and give them time to grow the... oh f*** it, who am I kidding? They'll pick some old duffer who'll play like it was 1966 and screw around with the team so no one has a clue what to do.
Maybe tempt the magic one? Or Pochetinno. I don't care of the manager isn't English: I just want him/her to win something!
