QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

Unlikely to have been Damian, unless he now works for a Canadian Pharmacy with strange ideas about marketing... :D

I did some work on the NHS email systems a few years ago. We implemented an anti-spam filter to stop consultants getting spam emails about viagra, penile growth, etc.... however, it turns out they actually use a lot of those words in their daily emails.

I cant tell you the fun we had devising a working set of spam filters for that system !

Normally spam like this relates to recreationally used drugs or personal enhancers, but this list is weird.

I'm actually on one of those drugs - Allopurinol is a preventitive medication for gout.

Who on Earth goes shopping around on the internet for gout pills?

With prescriptions priced £7+ some people will be tempted to look for short cuts... but at what price? how do you know your getting what they say ?

I built a patio a couple of years ago. I needed a couple of tonnes of hardcore as a base. You can imagine what happened when I tried searching for a supplier online...

Using 2 tonnes of hardcore for a patio base is OK unless you get excited - in which case you'd end up with a high rise car park - temporarily, of course!

By the way, the final total of Tango's posts was 462 in just under 3 hours, using two IPs.
