See, I know the difference too! Will my Peter turn blue as well now?

Not a Brit of a certain generation (Blue Peter is a kids show, that gave badges for things, google it!, I'm sure the footage of an Elephant having dump on the studio floor is on Youtube somewhere!)

If you were out on a boat the most import question is did you catch any fish. I refuse to believe that you go out just for the sake of it without fishing.
The only time acceptable would be when you are on the ferry doing a booze run down to Germany.

As they say "give a man a fish he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish he will wear a silly hat & drink beer all day"...never really seen the appeal of fishing...

Some like beer and some like wine.
I've grown up with fishing so it contains a lot of emotion and tradition for me. Love the calm, one of few things where I truly disconnect from technology. Love catching my own food. Recently I've started fishing in lakes as opposed to the ocean which is an entire new challenge and it's also something I can do with my son.
Don't try to understand why fishers like it if you don't intend to try it yourself. People have a lot of interest and if you are going to understand why you won't have anytime left to do what you like. :p

Very quick! I thought I'd do an easy one for Monday, but I didn't think it was < three minutes easy! 
Care to explain?

To be honest, I have no idea about the solution. Just the whole sentence pointed to decimal point..
Looks like Double definition I guess..
Decimal point separates the integer from fraction I guess

I use a Microsoft display dock and chromecast when travelling - works very well for MS Office.
(Although I have to use a remote desktop to my PC for Visual Studio but I guess that is a lot to ask of a phone  )

Not for me, I'm afraid.
If I have to carry around something the shape and size of a (much more powerful) laptop, I'll go for a (much more powerful) laptop.
Besides, who wants to work with android or iOS on a laptop? They're a bit limited when it comes to power, storage, and laptoppy programs, no?
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

I think it xould be like a kind of Chromebook but hooked into yer phone, so all your stuff is with you but xou have the option of using a keyboard for actually editing documents etc. I think it looks smaller than your average laptop. And a hell of a lot cheaper.
For personal faffing around (i.e. not actual work) on the go it looks promising, to me.
