Telemarketing and drinking

Check out the TC2K, and watch it in action (with animation support).

Shedding tears for: Airfix (as a former constructor of a Boeing 747, F16, Tornado, Saab Viggen, Hawker Hunter, C130 Hercules, Mosquito and a Fokker, amongst others)

According to the BBC News website: 'Jeremy Brook, of the Airfix Collectors Club, said it was a sad day for those with fond memories of having sticky fingers'

Feeling like: the kind of fool who knows better than to mix his drinks, but goes ahead anyway. Next binge is early November.

Ratings:

• Nags Head: unchanged since the beginning of time
• Belgo's: same ole same ole; coconut and banana beers ok; moules good, frites shite
• Retox Bar: surprisingly quiet during 22:30-2am; 'Blackberry's Off' cocktails were akin to Ribena without the taste, with ice that looked like it was mixed with cocaine
