:bighug:
Sadly no, Virgin doesn't love us anymore and after our computer upgrade we have serious trouble getting the right discs to upload the internet software we need! It will be pretty horrendous if we can't get it sorted for next week, as I am off work next week but having visitors, so swanning around London in the day!
I might charge AYBG for my internet cafe expenses as I spend a quid every evening just to do housekeeping on this site! £2 yesterday!

Oh yes, and if you frequent internet cafes, please do log out of everything properly before your time is over, I ended up in someone else's email account the other day as it restored the previous session that had closed unexpectedly! :blink:

parent and baby screenings, over 18 screenings, oldys screenings, etc etc the growing trend for very specific audience screenings is getting out of hand..

Split screens: bring your laptop to the cinema

A Newcastle cinema is trialling laptop screenings to give homeworkers a chance to watch a film and work at the same time.
