When I started my previous thread I was going to use the title 'Visit from the PF' but my Auto Complete on the PC came up with 'Victoria Pendleton rubber mask'. What was I thinking? :shock: :? :twisted:

    OP: You know auto-complete suggestions are based on things you've typed in text boxes in the past, don't you?

    :-D

    The thing that worries we most is that I dont remember typing 'Victoria Pendleton Rubber Mask'. Surely I would remember that? I hope I would.... the image in my mind is, well, mind blowing..... :D

    After working back a bit the other night, I tried to sent the lovely Mrs. Elephant a text saying "Just leaving, see you soon". Due to the magic of autocorrect, I very nearly sent her one saying, "Just leaving, see you Adolf". WTF?

    Last Xmas eve, a mate was staying at mine.
    I had just done the Xmas draw at work and had a Santa suit....

    So as I got ready tocycle home I texted him, it came out thus:

    "1/2 a bottle of wine and 3 pints, should I don the santa suit and cycle home? Hell yes! Bed you in half an hour"

    I coudn't understand his anxious look as I burst into the living room in the Santa suit....

    (Should have been See you in half an hour)
