Current location:Brighton
Current mood: moody
Current music:'Love of my Life' (Queen)

two requests
Does anyone have Queen's 'Sheer Heart Attack'? I have every other Queen album except that one, inexplicably. And it's my favourite. I have the CD and the LP (and possibly even the 8-track) back in the States, but that doesn't do me much good here. (N.B. Not the SONG 'Sheer Heart Attack', which is actually on the album 'News of the World' and several of the live albums). There are times when a song like 'Dear Friends' is exactly what is needed...

I'll be in London on Tuesday for meetings with the publishers, probably in the morning. I'm going to the meetup in the evening. Anyone care to get together for lunch/tea/drinks/coffee at some point during the afternoon?

I'm outta the loop here. What meeting is this?

I don't have the Queen album, I'm afraid.

By 'meeting' I mean 'meetup' - not the publishers.

*sigh* I want to meet up in London! :P

I hope you have a good time, and the only Queen album I have is the Greatest Hits. Sorry I couldn't be of more help!

Thanks to Misha, I now have Sheer Heart Attack. Listening to 'Brighton Rock' :)

Now can someone tell me where the forward slash key is located on a British keyboard? My US keyboard is set to UK and I know where most things are, but not this one. I'm trying to enter pathnames and am stymied.

Sorry, I mean the BACK slash. When I press the backslash key on my keyboard, I get the hash mark ######

LOL!

To the left of z is the shift key. Do you guys have extra keys on your keyboards?

No, your keyboards just have them in the wrong places. ;-)

If you don't have a key in the right place I guess you'll have to try pressing all the keys in turn and see which ones produce the desired effect. Alternatively, you could type alt+numpad092. That will give you a backslash.

I'm always free on Tuesday afternoons these days. And Wednesday afternoons. And Thursday ... oh, you get the idea. I'm unemployed, after all... :-( I keep toying with the idea of going to the HP Meetups, but haven't got the courage to do so yet.

I have the album on my iPod (I think), if you can wait a few hours for me to get home from work and upload it...

It's good to see you out and about with your friends.

I hear Queen is good, but have yet to really listen to them... I have Hanson though, hehe.

Next time I'm in London, we should definitely do lunch! Looking into getting a timeshare there, in the greatest city in the world!

Just finished filming Harvey Putter and the Ridiculous Premise. It was truly remarkable.

Hope you're well!

Love, Sunny
