I went into Yeovil Waterstones once to find an Oscar Wilde play they didn't have. I said maybe it's in the gay section. The whole shop went quiet, they all looked at me and the assistant said 'we don't have a... 'gay' section'.
I went a bit red.

What fuse was it?

A 15amp glass delay fuse - John Updike.

Quick PC question: Is it the Processor or Memory that makes apps loads quicker? Basically, what I'm asking is, which do I need to make it easier for me to have more that one app running?

Load quicker, both.
More running, memory.
More running AND usable, both.

Yeah, the Yeovil Waterstones is fairly crap. (Try upstairs in WH Smith's instead.)

Also, remember Yeovil has a different spectrum of sexuality. 'Gay' is usually employed to describe a man who hasn't f**ked his mother/sister. 'Bisexual' is a man who has only slept with his father (dressed up as his sister). Country people, country ways...

There's a gay section in Wood's wine bar, if that helps. :)

Haha!

Yes WHS is much better for books.
You'd think the town was big enough to have a nice big multi-floored bookshop, but it doesn't even have a second hand bookshop. Bloody weird town if you ask me.

The new PC World advert :O

TTPYO:

Shops.

Remember that time you went into a shop and came away with exactly what you wanted?

No, because it didn't f**king happen.

Would Waterstones stock one of the most famous modern novels of all time, widely considered a classic? No, no, they wouldn't.

Would Maplin stock a certain fuse. No, no they wouldn't.

F**k off Halfords as well.

You've gotta love their guide books, gives you two variations of batteries, and neither are the right size I mean wtf! and there is no point asking the guys who work there some of them don't even know what a car is.

Does Halfords still exist? How thrilling! Not being lower middle-class myself I wouldn't have noticed.

People writing 'could of' insread of 'could have'. And it's spelled I-N-E-D-I-B-L-E. And smelt is something you do with metal, not your f**king nose!
