I failed an exam by TWO marks out of 160.

That's the first exam I've ever failed.

Sad
bugger.

But you'll get it next time

As it was so close I've requested a re-mark. Cost me £81 mind.

I had a paper remarked once as it was one mark under a grade boundary- it came back 15% higher and I got my money back with an apologetic letter! Finger crossed Samdy

Even if you were staying at the furthest point in Devon from Coombe Martin,would it really take 2 1/2 hrs to drive there?

Runners or joggers on the roads. Either

A) Running on the wrong side of the road
B) As above with no fluorescent garments
C) Running on the right side of the road with no fluorescent garments
D) Running with a dog not on a lead on either side of the road

Just asking to visit the GWH or their god of choice

A) Running on the wrong side of the road

I assume by wrong you mean left side.

Hate running on roads myself, unless its a) bloody quiet or b) closed

To the winners of Britain's Got Talent...you sing well, and the harmonies are impressive.  But please don't ever describe yourself as a 'band' again.

The fact you know who won Britain's got talent mildly annoys me! Wink

Some time ago I ordered a tv bracket to put our tv on the wall. I decided to have a go yesterday. I'm inept at DIY so drilling holes and putting the bracket on the wall took longer than it probably should have taken.

Next part was to put the brackets on the back of the tv, realising that the screws in the bracket box were too small I nipped up to the local DIY shop 3 times to try and get the right size screws.

Finally after some time it dawned on me that the screws I needed were too big to go through the bracket! I did some investigation on the yank amazon site and there was a warning that the bracket wouldn't fit Samsung TVs. So I now have 4 lovely holes in the wall and a bracket I can't use (it was only about £7). Bit pissed off that it didn't have the same warning on the uk amazon site (and I did read the comments and it was never mentioned).

The bracket states it can be used on 99% of tvs which i suspect is a load of bollocks.
