The national sport of Turkey is .............
« on: April 03, 2013, 10:18:00 AM »
Having just returned from Istanbul I have decided that the National sport of Turkey is .........

Smoking !!!! (football is second)   :)  :)  :)

Maybe Turkey should equalise the price of fags with UK (as with petrol)

That reminds me of the last few weeks - I have been giving my 87 yr old mother and 87 yr old father in law computer lessons (and they are both sending emails now) but they are both using a dongle and as the signal is not great where they both live we have extension cables - you should have seen their faces when I told them to always "dangle your dongle over the side of the chair near the window" to face the sky to get a better signal.

Now if either of them have a problem I answer the phone as "hello internet helpline how can I help you?" and they both regularly say "its not the signal as I am dangling my dongle near the window" - god help them if anyone is visiting when they call  :)


Priceless.................. :D

I'm in absolute hysterics at Ian's story.  The angle of dangle is very important!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Bluwise......they dangle things in bags, hoping to entice women who are on their own!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D
