Like everywhere, you won't really be able to differentiate the accents unless you hear them often. Geordies, mackems and Smoggies all sound very different to me, but all people from the south east sound the same to me.

Do customs still charge for anything imported over the price of £18? I seem to remember reading a while back that it was going up in November. Any ideas or did imagine it?
The gist seems to be this;
From Monday 1st December, there will be a change to customs duty, with the threshold rising from £18 to £105. However import VAT and Excise duty are unchanged. VAT still has to be paid on goods over £18, as well as any Excise duty that may be applicable.
And just to cheer everybody up, Royal Mail will still apply an £8 handling fee to anything incurring customs duty, excise duty or VAT.
Can someone point me towards a decent program that can take a video and audio from youtube and turn it into a file that I could burn onto a DVD that would play on a typical DVD player? Thanks.

Im just downloading it now, I've heard good things about it. My only concern is that my uni uses Office 2007 and I could have compatibilty issues when emailing stuff to uni computers/lecturers.
When a player gets sent off in a football game (Im talking professional football rather than amateur) are they not allowed to stay in the stadium area to watch the rest of the game? The reason I ask is that Stephen McPhail has been sent of for Cardiff in the South Wales Derby and has since been shown twice sat on the floor watching the game on a lap top! I assumed he'd just be sent to the bench and thus could watch the game, but if he's allowed to do that why would he be watching on a lap top back stage?

You can save stuff as .doc or .xls, and it's perfectly compatible across the platform. There might be a problem if your Uni uses Office 2008 or something and puts some fancy bells and whistles in the document, but I think OpenOffice is good up to Office 2003.

Technically he has to return to the changing rooms. Try enforcing that one on a public park where the changing facility is a 5 minute walk though!
Occasionaly it doesn't happen though. Steven Caldwell for example ended up going to the press box when he got sent off during Burnley's win over Chelsea the other week. The stewards allowed him to because he had refused to leave the mouth of the tunnel until after the shoot-out!
whats a good single word for playing something down or the opposite of exagerating something
Nothing to see here!

Great game by the way, and that McPhail thing was interesting.
Its sort of like when a manager gets sent to the stands, he is banned from the touchline. He can sit in the back, or watch from the stands-same with a player.
That is why they always head straight off down the tunnel after a red card, rather then grabbing a jacket and sitting on the bench as if they'd been subbed

Managers can stay in the stand but I'm 99% certain that the FA rules say that a player has to stay in the changing room area. Certainly in amateur or semi-pro football a player is always sent to the changing area, usually to prevent confrontation.

How about Super Mario 64 DS?
Drawn To Life is a fun, if slightly under-challenging, Mario-esque platformer.
If you're into multiplayer shenanigans, the 42 Classic Games compilation is a good one.
Have a search through GBA games and find yourself International Karate Advanced.

Jesus christ. What is the deal with that? I'm currently having to close down numerous windows containing women with their legs wide open. Jeezo. Theres another one. She's not even wearing a smile.

Only joking! Much appreciated. Thanks for that. I'll probably put another 1GB in there. Again thanks.
Does anyone have an old unwanted faceparty account? It seems you can't even join it anymore although I may be wrong... I haven't used it for years but a friend said its changed a lot and it might be worth trying again. So does anyone have a username and password that they'd be willing to give?
Does anyone know anywhere in the UK that are selling
these? They're Eee PC skins but that's an American site. I found a site called Skins4things but they only seem to sell something to stick on the top/back of the screen, whereas the other site includes something to go around the keyboard/mouse pad.
Also, has anyone seen something that's a watch but not a watch? Like jewellery that's got a watch face in it?
Ok, so I was driving home last night and noticed a van with a sign on it saying "Police, Follow this vehicle!"
What I dont understand is why this is there? I assume it's some sort of security thing but how do the police know when to follow it and when not to? Any ideas?
Are you absolutely sure that that comma was there?
Are you sure it wasn't "Police follow this vehicle". If it's the latter, it's to inform would-be jackers that unmarked police cars routinely follow this vehicle and that they should back the fuck off. As in "police may be following this vehicle right now, because police do that. Police follow this vehicle".
If the comma was there then it's either a joke sign or some bad printing because it serves no purpose at all.

It means the vehicle will not stop on the road for the police but will instead drive to the nearest police station.

You may be right JLM, to be honest I was unsure when I put the comma in, which in itself likely means it wasn't there! Sounds a good enough explanation though! Thank you buddy!
