    Moving to London

    This may be a dumb question, but if I just turn up in the UK with an Irish passport, is that enough for getting tax/social security numbers and a bank account? Recommendations on best part of London to live without people being shot outside your bedroom window? Thanks!

    Happy Birthday to The Scientician, Junglebob on 15th November 2008

    is it possible to tell if a windows xp disc is service pack 2 or what?

    i got past the same issue before. had a legit sp1 xp disc/code but needed sp2. if you have access to a pc you can 'slipstream' and create an updated install disc (worked out perfect for me): http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sp2_slipstream.asp

    what was the parnell st spookhouse called? attached to UGC in mid 90s...?

    i think this place was only open for a couple of weeks. something had just closed down (a 3D simulator place?). as far as i remember, someone took your five pound at the entrance and you got chased around a badly lit maze by a couple of parnell street locals with masks and hatchets from hector...
