"When I know what Christmas will look like this year then I'll decide whether to get excited or not. "
Scarlet, my long term guilty pleasure, I can promise you a White Christmas if you’ll only let me down your chimney this Yuletide ![](/icons/s/3/snowman.gif) |

Mwah! Xx
I'm not sure how to take "long term" and "guilty pleasure" in the same sentence. I might be telling you where your white stuff belongs!!! ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

I got a ‘mwah’ from Scarlet. I’m banking that. That’s made my Christmas already!

.. that’s it’s only 314 sleeps to Christmas!!
Woooo… who else is excited!?!
And it's only 28444 days till the end of the century! Let's all party like it's 2099!!!
Will we have to get our computers fixed again? "
Nope, not for 2099/2100. We have to get them all fixed by 2038 :-
"At 03:14:08 UTC on Tuesday, 19 January 2038, 32-bit versions of the Unix timestamp will cease to work, as it will overflow the largest value that can be held in a signed 32-bit number (7FFFFFFF16 or 2147483647)."
Without a fix, at 03:14:09 on that date your computer will tell you that it is 00:00:01 on January 1st 1901. |

Pah! And I was looking forward to storing tins of baked beans and custard in my makeshift Doomsday Shelter too
