28 days of soiled, sweaty gusset
Slept in, took a taxi to work, only cost me €20 and I was still late. 
that are now the Gap corporation's problem
Maybe we can get some sweatshop teenager in trouble over the zip too?

I'm sure I'll manage to strike the right balance.
clean it out
Just did.It wasnt the usual suspect cos I cleaned the heatsink recently..it was a layer of dustbunnies on the actual cpu that I didnt spot last time.Its running a bit cooler now.
I think I'm gonna redo the thermal paste tomorrow as well though.
This lappy is 8 year old at this stage,I'd say its well dried out
i was going to ask have if you'd tried blasting the fan exhaust with a can of compressed air, but if you've cleaned the heatsink I suppose you've dealt with that.
The inside is clean as a whistle..and its running within acceptable limits now..but it without a doubt needs new paste.
I just read it on the HP support site.
Its a fucking flyer of a lappy..I'll get another 5 years out of it if I mind it..well 2 anyway
I've been ill all week and i can't get un-ill.
Lets get this out of the way,

I have a hangover
Had to pay customs duty on a package this morning.
Price of item being delivered: €53ish
Tax: €12.15
Charge for collecting tax: €7
€7! And they don't even accept debit cards!

Maybe they accept 1c & 2c coins.

That's frustration with some services like this. I remember being stung years ago whilst in France for ordering something from the US and got stung for import fees. The only way one could pay was via cheque & I hadn't everything setup bank-wise locally at that stage so I did what anyone sane Irish person would do, go to the bank to get a bank draft. Turns out bank drafts a complete foreign concept and I essentially had to sit down with the bank manager to get some sort of bank draft equivalent (via the bank's own bank a/c) for the amount of 20 odd euro in Francs.
You'd think they would have given you a phone number to pay via card and then the delivery guy just has to check if payment was made.
That's really about how you should send lots of presents to friends that live abroad.
Wait, there's a thing called 'collecting' tax?
It's not a tax it's an admin fee they (the courier) charge for adding x% onto the value of the delivered item and taking it from you.
