I always thought the one truly great book Gaiman wrote (leaving aside comics) was American Gods, which is a fantastic read. Shame he's a bit of a tool in real life (his shameless name dropping is quite repulsive in the flesh).
I never thought of Well's et al as counting as Steam Punk, purely because they were writing at the time, for me it kind of starts and finishes with the Difference Engine. I'm plowing through the Baroque Cycle at the moment which I guess could be seen as a bit Steam Punkish.

I might be going mad but I'm sure the Family Cat supported one of the Carter USM reunion gigs last year or the one before. Now those were amazing gigs 
I've been lucky as I've seen the two reunion gigs I always wanted, PWEI and Carter USM. I've got tickets to the next Carter gig in Brixton already ( ).

Sounds like an issue with your M$ DRM software. Someone else wrote this little guide:
1. Open Internet Explorer and go to
2. Click the Upgrade button (if the button is greyed out then proceed to step 4)
Once the process has completed the text on the page should change to: Progress Status: The security components have been upgraded successfully. To play protected files, restart your digital media player. If you cannot play protected files after restarting your digital media player, restart your computer.
3. Try to download something free from 4oD
4. If you still experience problems it may be necessary for you to re-install Windows Media Player or upgrade to version 11.
a) First remove Windows Media Player using the Add & Remove programs utility in your Control Panel
(Proceed to the next step if Windows Media Player does not appear here)
b) Using Internet Explorer download the latest version of Windows Media Player from Microsoft website:
c) Run the Windows Media Player setup file to install it.
5. Finally download the latest 4oD setup file from
then run it and choose Repair.
Restart your computer and launch 4oD again. Please first test with free content.
If that doesn't work have you checked the help site for 4OD?

I abandoned IE for FF for a while, then switched back to IE7 when it was launched. When Chrome launched I found myself swapping to that, mainly because handled long conversations on it far better then on IE/FF, and also because of the memory isolation for tabs. Apparently IE8 now has all that stuff so I might well be swapping back to that. Having used most mainstream browsers since Mosaic it's always been my experience that it's worth chopping and changing between them.
If you're unable to get to websites for anti-virus companies etc then there's a good chance you've got something that's blocking that. Unfortunatly there's only so far you can go before you have to get technical and start running something like Hijack This and trying to understand the results. Can you get to any online scans?
If you can't get to either of those then you're in trouble.
With regard to disk cleans up etc does a much better job of freeing up disk space, sorting out your registry etc then the built in tools. They also do a defrag tool that lets you manage the defrag on a much more granular basis, the problem with the builtin defragger is that it has to put up with page file writers and other annoyances.

Aside from the price inflation at checkin I don't have a problem with Easyjet. However I would never fly Ryanair again. There was an interesting C4 documentry on them, and the very suspect business practices that they have. There's a reason that they manage to get such a quick turnaround, which you'll realise when you're sitting in a pile of sick from the previous flight.
While Easyjet et al charge you for hold baggage etc Ryanair is the only company that charges a "disability tax" because they got sued for charging people for taking wheelchairs on their planes so decided to simply charge everyone for that.
Having said all that I guess it's personal preference, I won't fly Ryanair just as I won't buy non organic meat, or Israeli produce.

Hate to admit it but I was cheering on the French, I do think Wales are turning into the ABs of the Northern Hemisphere, getting away with far too many things that other sides are getting penalised with. Now if only England could get the kind of quick ball that the French managed to secure.

What are you doing here posting?
What, now I'm not allowed to post on here? ;)
Of course I just thought you might have work to do! :P
I need my spot of perving
Does perving help the mind concertrate then? :lol:
By the way do you wank? just a survey I am doing on another thread. :lol:
It gives me the chance to take a break from the other stuff my brain is working on.
Yes, frequently though not to orgasm that often.

I guess if I met someone with expierance and knows what they are doing I would try anything once.

I have found not every guy is able to achieve that level of excitement and relax me enough to obtain them both either.
So I feel privileged and grateful to the guys that have achieved this for me.
Problem solved? ;)

I always thought of getting very wet as something, ummm, normal. Ie it's not something that happens when you orgasm, just part of the road to one. Squirting/gushing/ejaculating seems to be an actual manifestation of an orgasm. In my experience it's pretty much always (but not 100%) linked to g-spot stimulation.
Getting wet is something I can do just by kissing or making out with someone who really turns me on so for me, it's nothing to do with the actual orgasm.
I guess what I meant is that it was a question of semantics. To me "gushing" is the same as "squirting", ie part of an orgasm, while to you "gushing" is getting very wet, and not part of an orgasm. I think

What's he doing with the rest of his disposable income?
Having to much of a good time
Two trips abroad this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm definatly moving towards £50 :twisted:
I'd take a look for what he'd be paying if he wasn't living at home, and start moving towards that. Also what does he cost you in terms of food etc?
What's he doing with the rest of his disposable income? Is he saving for a house deposit or something, or is he just having a good time? I know I pay about 30% of my take home pay in rent but have bills on top of that. If he's taking home that much I think you could happily double or triple the amount.

Yeah, luckily I had a very good teacher when I was young so avoided the whole "how do you get Radio 1 on these" stage Wonder how many other women can have an orgasm like that. I assume we're differentiating from simply coming?
As for the fisting Minx, I suspect you're more likely to damage the fister then the fistee. I come away feeling like all the bones in my hand have been broken, and I know it's not unheard of for people to end up with broken bones/wrists etc doing it. If the person doing it just tries to 'ram' their hand in they're not going to get very far. Lots of lube and tight latex gloves is a good start.

Thinking back about it I can see what you mean. Ejaculating is like being on a wave, and you want to keep riding it for as long as possible, not wanting it to stop. Certainly fits with my experience. I guess that sometimes it coincides with fisting which seems to be an activity which leaves women utterly exhausted, so that the two have always been combined in my mind. Something worth thinking about.
Intrigued by the nipple stimulation alone working Bouncy. Do you have very sensitive nipples, or is it quite a lot of work on them that has you orgasming from them being played with? Will hold my hands up to never having done it.

Very much a question, just seeing if I understand the post. From my experience when women 'squirt' they tend to have a far more powerful orgasm then usual. Maybe it's just because so few do it that when it happens it's so out of the ordinary it feels more intense. Can you get blase about orgasms?
Hi Minx, welcome to the forums to you too 
No, the national speed limit should be reduced to 55 and strictly enforced to improve the country's fuel efficiency and reduce traffic jams. However cars need to be able to accelerate past the speed limit in some circumstances, such as over taking, and having a fixed limit might place drivers in danger.
Should the current road tax be scrapped and replaced with an increased tax on the pumps, penalising heavy road users and people driving gas guzzling cars?

Alive or dead?
Solo or band?
It's a tricky one because most people love lots of different types of music and within each genre there's going to be a stand out artist, so it's like asking people to say what's their favourite sort of music. And is it about the music they produce, or something more then that? For example you might like the Levellers because they behave in a manner true to their musical ethos (or so they claim).
