Egads. I wonder how much it costs to have your sense of self-preservation surgically removed?

Was scouring the net for the cheapest source of our bubbly of choice to stock up for Crimbo and New Year.
Found the cheapest place, but had to go and take the kids to their skiing lesson. Left the browser open etc. When I came back there was a popup saying enter your email address to receive a promocode for 10% off. So I did. So this code was CL10, and beats their other codes, there new customer code was NEWCUST15 giving £15 off first order, there is also a new customer code in the the signup email WELC10 for £10 off first order over £80, and there was another £15 off code CL15 which was just a random one I tried! Now as per usual, you can only enter 1 code. So glad I got sidetracked. The cheapest site, just became even cheaper!
Anyway, Their deals on bubbly + the code + free delivery == quite a saving!
Normally the bottles of LPR retail for ~60, I paid ~36 and that is the cheapest I have managed to find them for for a number of years. ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif) ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)
In case you are wondering where, it was winehound.co.uk

At that price SWMBO may suggest we stick to the Cava.

As it happens, Herself will be working Christmas Day as usual, so we won't be drinking much, if at all.

I checked and my supplier is 20% dearer for LPR, but 30% cheaper for the widow; what we drink.

Think I must have eaten something bad on Friday as I felt quite ill late in the evening. Anyway, was supposed to be playing golf in the morning so went to bed and hoped I'd feel better. I didn't but I went anyway feeling that a bit of fresh air and sunshine would help.
As we walked up to the first tee I felt a bit odd. Then I was very, very sick all over the back of the tee. Maybe toast and marmalade for breakfast wasn't the brightest idea I've had.
Still, as I was hurling my guts up I could hear my partner say "Let me take a picture!" I felt sure the bastard wanted to immortalize my vomit on the web. No, not at all. He was taking a picture of the group behind us who were all tactfully ignoring my sickness. One of them did say "Is your friend okay?" and my pal said "Oh, he'll be fine!" How the elephant would he know? Barf.
Finally, I felt purged and boy did I feel great. Best round of golf I've had for ages. I'm sure there can be no correlation between being sick and having a great round. Positive...

Thanks: still a little fuzzy and scared to eat anything, but I'll be fine.

Just a developer looking for some app ideas... because I can't think of any.

How about an application that assists developers who've run out of ideas for applications to come up with ideas for applications ?
Perhaps using genetic alligatorrhythms ?

Why only make it generate iseas when it can implement them directly? Let it generate source code, compile it and let the fitness function select by size and the number of errors and warnings. Eventually we will get huge programs that compile without errors.
Testing and selecting by the usefulness of those programs will not be as trivial to do.

Why bother assessing fitness? Just make it post the code to CP and ask for debugging help.
