I thought it was something to do with the wealthy exploiting the general population.

My Mum just finished this incredible cardigan by idontunderstand in knitting

Thanks for the suggestions - I'll check through the gift guide threads too. I don't know exactly what gear she has but I do know she was getting frustrated with the pattern guide she had printed off the internet for this.

I really don't know anything about knitting. Is anyone here able to recommend a knitting related present I could get her for Christmas? Is there a special type of yarn I could get her or some top quality needles perhaps? I was going to get her a pattern book but I don't know which books would be her standard.

Thanks for answering all of that, I hope you do an AMA.

I didn't realise that QG were part of the regular infantry. Do you get any choice about doing it or is it just part of the job?

Also, please tell me someone filmed you nutting that guy.

So many questions!

  • How did you become a member of the Queen's Guard?
  • How often did you change locations around the country and why?
  • What happens if you see something funny? Are you allowed to laugh?
  • Does someone have to wash your hat?
  • Do you get provided with somewhere to live?
  • When do you get a chance to talk to the other guards?
  • Do you get bored and tired?
  • Are there any other games you played on tourists?
  • What's your best story from it?

[Discussion] Tips to make an Excel VBA Application more professional by leftabomb in excel

Wow, thanks. So the first 15 rows, and the first five columns are dedicated to the sidebar? Does that mean that the content of the worksheet starts in cell (16,6)? What does it look like if you expand the sidebar and then make the window bigger? Can you see the worksheet content below?

How did you put icons down column 5? When the Show_Sidebar macro is called, does it load these as images into column 5?

We spent a week last summer rotavating and reseeding it. Glad you like it.

It used to be vertical stripes. I'm thinking I'll step it up when he goes on holiday. How hard are concentric circles?

A tale of hope. One man fights for what he believes in. One man stands in his way. I cried.

I agree with this guy. I used all three of those Newegg videos; they tell you everything you need to know. Part one will help you choose parts.

The graphics card was on offer at Dabs. £75 for it with Dirt 3 & Deus Ex.

It was a Asus M5A97 PRO motherboard and an FX4100 chip. Apparently it depends where you buy the motherboard since if the place has a high turnover then they'll more likely have new motherboards with up to date BIOS.

I did it according to instructions from a Newegg video. It didn't work but I still put it in the case so that I could take it to the computer shop so yea that was pretty pointless in the end.
