Lewis Collins[^] died.
I loved The Professionals when I was a kid.
He was also excellent in Jack the Ripper.
Only 67. Cancer sucks arse!

Damn, but that's sad. If I'm pottering around early in the morning, I sometimes watch the Professionals repeats on ITV 4. While it's weird watching old format programs on a widescreen HD system, it doesn't detract from the fact that they wrote some great stories.

It truly is a leveller.
No matter who or what you are, cancer can strike.

It's not a "leveller", at all. It's reality.
There are no "levels". We're all 60-ish per cent water that's significantly dirtied by other substances, and we all pull our trousers on one leg at a time.
It's past time that people who think that being "famous", making money, and/or "owning" things makes humans special woke up to reality -- the world is an amazing place to visit, if you can get past all the stupidity that people try to apply to its surface.

I agree with just about everything you just said.
I don't do stuff.
Over the years most of my disposable income on travelling.
And I have travelled the world.
One thing I have learned is that people are the same all over the world.
Possessions make you poor, memories enrich you.
I buy the things I need, and yes, buy the best of those things that I can afford at the time, but I am not someone who buys crap because others have it.
I would rather travel.

Cancer can go f* itself! With a rusty spike n'all.
I was at my brother's just now and that came on the radio. B* f* c*! He now takes it as a matter of pride when he out lives anyone<\I>. It is still awkward hearing noise like this when you're with someone who's on the list.

Do you know that Lewis Collins passed the entrance tests to join the SAS but was turned down because he was too famous!

Can anyone recommend a free (or cheap) VPN for private use? I'm in the UK, if it's relevant.
|
|
|
|
|
For what use exactly?
There are some specifically for bittorrent that you are (technically) not allowed to use for anything else.
There are also some that you're not allowed to use for bittorrent.
Of course there are also many that you're allowed to use for both, but that does limit your choices somewhat.

I have access to Vyprvpn, its not something I use very often though, they are constantly adding new servers around the world. Its always been reliable when I have used it. They have app's for Android, iPhone, and others too I would imagine for ease of setup too.

Just wanna echo this, works like a charm every time, good support, nice apps for android and iOS, own system tray application for windows and mac, whit nice features like automaticly connect to VPN if you are on an unsecured WiFi, also a lot of server clusters around the world and good support for different VPN protocols.

Won't teamviewer make it? It's free for private use.
