my outlook calendar at work will only display uk holidays up to the end of 2002.

i have tried looking for updates and reinstalling the holidays but nothing will work. all i want to do is get bank holidays automatically displayed. but i can only see things up to 2003. whyyyyyyyyyyy oh why?

does anyone know how i can fix this please?

edit: ah, all is well now, well, wellish. i have been sent an update and the problem is mostly solved. thank you everyone for your help.

i fucking HATE when you press backspace and it makes your webpage go back! WHHHHHYYYY do you do that oh crappy computer?

anyway. Ben has asked me to link to a page because his friend is trying to sell some Myth & Magic pewter figurines. some ones from The Hobbit, some dragons that type of thing. so if you like those things have a look. prices are negotiable.

Myth & Magic Figurines For Sale

i am still a sicko. and last night i went to Sainsbury's in Nick's pyjamas! we got vanilla&rhubarb yoghurt. it's so tasty.

ps. Belkar in OOTS 163 - ahahah. looks where he's standing. cute.

today i would like to wish evil_nick a very Happy Birthday. and also i send the same wishes to my friend Carl. i hope you both have excellent days.

i also hope ashfae and randomchris have a lovely wedding #1. i am so looking forward to wedding #2!

so, i tidied up my friendslist quite radically.

if i removed you, don't think i don't like you. i probably do. just i wanted to tidy up because i plan to spend less time reading journal stuff.

there may be further snippage. i am not sure yet.

yesterday Nick and i watched LOTR. yes, all three extended films. it was fantastic.

i love ashfae

fuck ME, Aeryn is swaggering.
