| 1162259 | 2010-12-19 22:13:00 | Very well We have covered every possible contingency. Because of that I am closing off the donations. I will of course still accept anything that might come from PC World :) |

| 1162260 | 2010-12-19 22:15:00 | Hopefully my donation shows up in the next few days. Stupid clearance times. | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 1162261 | 2010-12-19 22:28:00 | Awesome. :punk | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1162262 | 2010-12-19 23:18:00 | Great stuff!! Should keep donations open so we can buy Speedy some replacement camera batteries perhaps? ;) Not to mention a Toaster for a wedding gift! |

| 1162265 | 2010-12-19 23:52:00 | How easily traditions are lost - it used to be that at least 40% of the gifts were electric jugs, 30% barometers and the remainder largely taken up by complex holders for things you were unlikely to have. Only the lunatic fringe gave things like towels and sheets. | R2x1 (4628) | ||

| 1162267 | 2010-12-20 00:10:00 | From whence did that outburst come? Since roddy_boy is MIA at the moment, I will step into the breech (and likely as not get shot down - or at least flamed). "From whence" is grammatically redundant and, as such, is incorrect. "Whence" means "from what place" or "from what source" (dictionary.reference.com) - the preposition "from" is already incorporated in the meaning of the word... /here endeth the lesson |
