Good morning everyone.
 Happy birthday Dace & Darkmatter.NI  By the way you are both pipsqueaks and still need to learn how to grow old disgracefully. Flotation tanks? I thought were only for films about SMERSH, KGB and weird films starring Michael Caine. Have to see if there is near to London or Sheffield. |

Good morning team, and Happy Birthday to all who are celebrating today!
----------------------------------------Hopefully a nice relaxing weekend ahead, as I've spent the last few days up in Edinburgh for a work-conference! Having not been on a plane for 22 years, that was an interesting experience (moreso seeing how much airport security has become a "little" stricter than I remembered it being).  |

The cats have woken me early again (5:30) but I'm damned if I'm going out to feed them yet. Noisy little b*gg*rs. I'm sure things have changed Thargor. I used to commute weekly from Birmingham to Edinburgh in '77 on a Vickers Viscount on the way up and a BAC 111 on the way back. Security - what security? If it wasn't for 9/11 most of the airport staff now would be unemployed (and IMHO unemployable!)

Good Morning All. Very early start today (Chinese GP started at 2am). Poor Lewis Hamilton - talk about a disaster - started last then crunched by a Sauber 3 pit stops in the first 6 laps. I can't wait to see it this afternoon (Fox Sports 3 with Spanish commentary) but it sounded like a humdinger of a race.

Good morning all. I'm feeling a bit better today. I reckon that people who are ill over a weekend should be allowed a couple off days of work.
----------------------------------------Nice to see "the new boys" Paul_D and Brad94 contributing so well to the team performance and getting badges too. If we could recruit another 10 of them there'd be no stopping us.

Morning team, yep, pretty pleased with results so far, still can't believe I didn't find WCG years ago but I'm just glad to be able to help out with some worthy scientific research.
All I need now is about 60 grand to buy that HPC machine with 16 18 core xeons ;) but the wife's having none of it. How much can you get for a kidney these days?? |

Good morning all.
Rod, yes reading the teletext summary it seems it was good race. Will have to wait until Channel Four broadcasts highlights later today. We took the basic Sky package because if we had added films and sport, well there would no work done around the house, especially when there is Cricket being broadcast. |

Why not sell both her kidneys Paul_D, and get one with the new Broadwell 22-core/44 thread Xeon E5's?
