Went to three parties yesterday without meeting any of the hosts I think. Was odd, down in Sussex. First two populated by people much older than I whilst the final one was some 21st birthday party. Met a guy going up to Cambridge as a mature student and a girl at Newnham. Surreal day with much drinking with all sorts of characters.

Don't think it works. Tried a few, all comes up with @googlemail.com. Last I heard, it was because some UK company claimed the ownership of gmail before google thought about it...

Okay, I don't get this - I live in the UK and my account is @gmail.com.....

When did you sign up though? If it was before Oct 2005, you would've got the gmail domain. I know I did...

On October 19, 2005, the United Kingdom version of Gmail was converted to Google Mail, because "Gmail" is trademarked by another company in the UK.[10] However, this can be bypassed by using a proxy. Curiously, even though UK users' address shows up at the top of their inbox and in emails they send as [email protected], emails sent to [email protected] still reach the intended recipient. Users who registered before the switch to Googlemail face no problems whatsoever - they keep their GMail address (although the logo in the top-left of the page appears as 'Google Mail').

I signed up ages ago, which would explain it.

i was pondering moose and meese ages ago, like goose and geese, i couldn't ever be bothered to find out what the plural was though, in my defence 'you moose' was my insult of preferance for a while, so i decided that a collection of irritating people were meese... i now sound even more stupid than before, damn

There's a book on how to trade insult with people, but I can't remember the name. Next time when I'm home, I'll dig up the pdf.

Tell him the story of one of my best mates, who went around calling everyone that until she called an asian friend of hers that by accident....

Despite her successful modelling career, Cole retains a commitment to her education - achieving straight 'A's in her AS-level examinations in English, History, Drama and Philosophy at Hammersmith private school Latymer Upper. She has a conditional place to read Social and Political Science at the University of Cambridge.

So there. She is coming. There comes the hot source of gossips for our local papers for the next three years. I wonder what she's going to do during freshers week. Probably getting bored to death.
