I still don't get why it's annoying.

I don't think it's stupid to assume that, it's just something that some people know and some people don't.

I need to learn how to turn down jobs.

I'm currently doing shifts at:

a bar I worked at before uni as cover
a milk round as the normal lad broke his collar bone
sound engineering at a local pub for the summer festival
dj'ing my normal gigs which dont get me home until way after 1
and my radio show.

so much going on and I'm struggling to keep up. those dont even include hobbies or just sitting and watching telly which i find tiring.

also annoying me, someone I've known all my life who was a single mum and only 40 died last night. feels so strange knowing that I wont see them at the pub anymore or anything.

Back from holiday. I want to go back to sunbathing, napping in the middle of the day, playing patonque and enjoying the beautiful Madeira scenery with the missus and her family.

CBA with the real world!

I don't know them all, just é. It's ctrl+alt+e, if you're arsed. Really can't hold it against you if you're not.

Thanks - but I guarantee by the next time I will need to use one I'll have forgotten.

I tend to use alt + number pad combinations - it's one of only two I know off by heart: alt+130 (has to be the number pad, not the numeric buttons above the QWERTY).

The other one I know is ü (alt +0252), which produces a tick in Wingdings on a Windows PC.
