I only 'knew' him from SEOChat, but I understand he used to be active @ WMW too (?)

Water Cooler / RIP Fathom
« on: March 22, 2016, 04:40:12 PM »
I thought some of you should know:
Fathom, Canadian SEO PITA of SEOChat fame, has recently passed away.
I dunno the details, and I can't really be arsed to look em up because it's
just so very sad that he died and his former brushes with death now seem
utterly irrelevant.
Some but not all of you will know him.
Most of those will at some point have been verbally abused by him.
In fact he got me banned as a mod @ SEOChat at some point, the bastard!
He'll be sorely missed.

Umm that's "high noon" isn't it?
Please don't confuse us (foreigners) any further than we already are

Hmm after Rooftop's post I'm confused (ok that's a bit early in the thread to get confused).
The thing that continental ladies, getting together around 4pm and drinking tea and stuffing themselves with scones and crumpets and cucu sammies and whathaveyou: is that supposed to be HIGH Tea or AFTERNOON Tea? Or is it a mix? Or none of the above?
I've heard from some semi-Northerners that High Tea is actually the equivalent of dinner, and that Afternoon Tea can be poshed-up in the way I described earlier. But now I'm not so sure...

Great stuff.
I was 'trapped' in London City Airport years ago but all I could bring myself to do was crash on the mock leather diner benches and try and take a nap. Of course I only had a Toshiba G900 at the time so shooting a vid was not really an option
This is very creative though. Not quite as creative as tiling the place like Tom Hanks did, but close...

It's prolly very British to have the patience to answer 70 silly questions for nowt.
Soz, I can't be arsed to even try and have a go at pretending to be a Brit.
Funny questions, but far too many

I just wonder: why on earth should I choose Aurora (beta?) over regular Firefox?

I still cannot find an app that does OWA/Office365 calendars w/o the need to enable PIN access. Maildroid comes close, but it's not quite there. Sigh..........
And I mainly use my mobile to read in bed so I'd add Moonreader+
Next on my list is to check if it's gonna rain nearby, and when exactly, which is why I use Buienalarm a lot. Benelux only - sorry
