Yeeeessss...but...she also owns two copies of Office (including the latest non-rental version) and can't find disk 5 of the Works set...
She also hates using her laptop because it has Win8 on it and that "just doesn't do anything"

She does pretty well for her age: she still drives, lives alone and cooks for herself, she even flies off across the world to see friends and family.
But... She still has a large collection of vhs tapes!

I'm still struggling to teach my father how to watch tv through the Xbox One.
1. "Xbox On"
2. "Xbox Watch TV"

Now, now I am sure Griff will back me up, cats are intelligent beings (from another planet). They listen well then do their own thing.

A virus would never know your mother's name and her granddaughter's mother's email.  Also, if it were a virus, why would it say greetings? It would have said, Welcome our 100000000th winner. Click following link and win a free virus! 
It is even confusing me too, but trust me I am a human!

As noted by Griff.
Several of these types have come to my inbox of late. Easily recognized for what they are - from someone you know but awkwardly impersonal.
Long ago, my Yahoo.com box was hacked and my small address book was put to use. Has happened to others I know (or, at least, know me), since.
It could even be via capture of a single piece of mail with a big TO and CC list.
And always the ubiquitous link for your clicking pleasure.
Some, I'm convinced, are to simply get eyes to a particular sight to earn hit (=money). Others, of course, are to detect and infect.

Didn't see the slogan 1st time round.

Tenting, but not very much

Two possible expiations I can think of a) it's an old family company that has used the slogan since Brunel's day
b) they came up with it in a pub at the end of a pub crawl...

Did they erect Brunels hat too?

Interesting that they can get away with it. It might rub some people the wrong way.

I have a reply to that but nsfw

Actually - it would seem to be a very considerate slogan, designed to avoid the depression associated with some body types (and the chuckles they've endured?).
At least in the spirit of "Everyone's Special" and "I'm OK, you're OK"
Do you actually believe (or want to believe) . . . ?

Hi All,
Regulars will know of my employment troubles at the moment so I'm looking...<<yosser mode="">> Electronics, I can do that, gissa a job <> (I wonder if anyone gets that?..) I was recommended the Dice web site by some US members, being in merry old England (the commute would be a *****) it wasn't much use. I have found that the Dice site has a UK version www.theitjobsboard.co.uk which is owned by DHX or Dice Holdings...
So some Dice!

For us UK'ian's the Yosser mode was a big clue. (Those of us above a certain age).
Whatever happened to quality drama like that?

I am afraid I only really know it from repeats, I am a little too young to have seen it/understood it when it was first shown (82-83ish?)
